What will this home sell for? Can you outsmart the ask?

Editor's Note

A 1974 Scottsdale hacienda fully reimagined - new HVAC, new kitchen, pool with rock waterfall, and desert landscaping. 3,102 sqft at $1.85M is $596/sqft. The renovation is stunning, but you are still buying 1974 bones. Does the flip justify the price?

About This Property

This desert retreat is an elevated architectural revival, curated with intention by Lady House Buyer. Nearly every element is new or renewed, blending the enduring character of Southwestern architecture with a soulful, layered and textural aesthetic. Most renovations chase trends; this one chased something money can't manufacture -- provenance. This home was originally built by E.T. Wright, whose celebrated 'Sands' series have become a hallmark of quality and character across the valley. From the street, the home's modernized hacienda character is unmistakable. Desert-adapted landscaping, a new smooth stucco finish and a deep recessed entry set the tone, while a trademark E.T. Wright shadow block planter nods quietly to the home's history. Step inside to discover intuitive spaces, beautifully finished with a cohesive aesthetic, with a palette of earthy tones, organic textures and premium materials. The living spaces, dining room and kitchen harmonize effortlessly, offering the perfect setting for connection and entertaining. Preserved vintage interior details honor the home's beginnings, including sandblasted solid wood vigas, stone accent wall, sculptural drywall cutouts, barrel-vaulted entry ceiling and authentic Saltillo tile floors. The kitchen was expanded in scale, elevated in detail and built for real life. ProCraft's locally crafted custom millwork brings the kitchen to life. A generous island offers breakfast bar seating, while the statement range hood offers both art and function. Honed Della Terra concrete gray quartz countertops extend seamlessly into a full-height backsplash. A newly created butler's pantry offers built-in cabinetry, full-sized refrigerator and tons of counter space. Enjoy high-performance appliances including Cafe stainless steel suite and a Kucht Professional 36-inch, 6-burner gas range. The primary suite was expanded to create the kind of space that makes everything else feel far away. The brand new primary bath features Bedrosian tile, a freestanding Swiss Madison soaking tub and an oversized two-person shower with frameless glass and Signature Hardware fixtures. The hybrid pool is a category of its own. Play pool depth on one side, a full diving side on the other, anchored by a rock waterfall, renovated decking and generous lounge areas. Every detail of the rear yard has been meticulously curated with carefree synthetic lawn areas, brick-lined walkways, mature landscaping and curated desert plantings. Additional exterior features include a built-in BBQ island, a custom-tiled outdoor shower and covered patio accessed through a multi-panel slider. Major 2026 upgrades: 5-ton Lennox electric heat pump HVAC system, tankless gas water heater, new electrical sub-panel, reverse osmosis filtration system, water softener, recoated roof, synthetic stucco exterior, and garage epoxy floor. Sewer line replaced 2024. All warranties transferable. Positioned just beyond McCormick Ranch, local favorites are steps away. Minutes from Scottsdale Quarter, Kierland Commons, Old Town Scottsdale, Trader Joe's, Salt River Fields, OdySea Aquarium, and TopGolf. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the paved multi-use paths along the 11-mile Scottsdale Greenbelt.
