As you pull up to 2836 S Diamond S Road, you are greeted by a forest of mature mesquite trees. Once you reach the house, the presence of the property really shines through. To make it even better, the contractor built this home for himself! This home is truly a dream to anyone looking for a Compound or Sanctuary!! The construction of the house is solid 2x6 studs with a smooth stucco exterior and Saltillo tile throughout most of the first floor. The house has four independent cooling systems; two air conditioning units and two swamp coolers. This house is on the waiting list for StarLink and will be the first in the area. August is the current estimated beginning of service.

High ceilings in the dining room feature a stylish Sputnik light fixture as well as a giant antique beam from an old mine that the builder dragged back from off-roading in local BLM land. The family room/theater contains a motorized 104" projection screen. The theater's tall ceilings are covered in metal tiles reclaimed from the Yavapai County courthouse. There's a wet bar with a marble top and brass rail that contains a small refrigerator, extra storage, brass sink, and glass fronted cabinetry. The room opens to the backyard and stays nice and cool in the summertime. The kitchen has a bifold door covering a sizeable pantry. The bright windowed breakfast nook has a vaulted ceiling and modern chandelier. The sink has a view of the creek and garden beds and contains a reverse osmosis drinking water system. The kitchen has been fitted with extra layers of task lighting, and all appliances convey, including a new dishwasher. There's a second pantry in the main hall next to a large coat closet, across from a dedicated laundry room. The laundry room has it's own sink, plenty of storage, a new washing machine, and an amazing gas dryer, as well as a collapsible drying rack in the sunshine just outside the door.

The hallway leading to the master bedroom has a built in key drop, message board, and built in shelving and cabinets. Across from the shelving is a heavy metal door that blocks any sounds from the utility room. The room has more storage, the whole house vacuum, the water heater and filter, and the hvac system. Just past the utility room is a half bath with marble countertops and a large mirrored medicine cabinet. Straight from that door is an entrance to the back yard.

At the end of the hallway is the 500 sq. ft master bedroom suite with a closet, separate walk in closet, office/sewing room/private library with sliding glass door to the enclosed backyard. The corner of the house just outside this sliding door would be an ideal place for a small deck and outdoor shower. The en-suite bathroom has a large jet soaker tub, tiled shower, and marble sink. The windows on either side of the sink provide the perfect amount of morning sunlight for getting ready. There is a wall-mounted swing-out 80" projection screen in the master so you can have cozy movie nights (or breakfast and cartoons in bed). There is a gas hookup for a fireplace if you'd like to go for the ultimate in winter comfort! Another door leads you from the bedroom back out to the patio with the hot tub, overlooking the gazebo and yard filled with birds.

To go upstairs, you take a beautiful Saltillo tile staircase with safety-conscious nightlights, carpeted half-moon treads, and a sturdy oak bannister. At the top of the stairs on the left is another master suite, with a sunny bathroom containing a floor to ceiling linen closet, shower, bathtub, and his-and-her sinks. The upstair's master bedroom receives bright morning light and is wonderful for plants. There is a sliding glass door leading to a spacious private balcony. This balcony has one of the best views, as it overlooks the front of the house. There is a clear view of the immediate parking area, the raised garden beds, the irrigation creek, the field of the conservancy, and Squaw Peak. It's most beautiful when desert storms roll in because the dramatic clouds provide a gorgeous sunset show in the evenings. There is a ceiling fan for evenings that aren't quite breezy enough, although those are pretty rare. Across from the upstairs master suite is a bedroom/office/craft room that overlooks the back yard. This window has a view of the front mesquite bisque, the grassy backyard and gazebo, but does not have a view of the hot tub. The next room in the hallway is another bedroom/playroom/music studio, but this one is more sunny, with a view of Squaw Peak and a private security door that leads to the balcony. The last room in the hallway is a sizable linen closet and extra storage. If you are lucky enough to take a tour of this wonderful property, you will see the craftsmanship and peacefulness of this immaculate home.
