Paradise Valley Luxury Tour – Arizona Luxury Statistics
By
Paradise Valley Luxury Tour meets every other week, and is one of the best realtor home tours in the valley for several reasons:
1. There are always a huge number of agents who go on tour and they actually take the time to give constructive feedback on the listings.
2. Outstanding agents attend and it provides an opportunity for us to network and share with one another.
On November 21, we toured 10 homes ranging in price from $2,495,000 to $6,950,000. My favorite home is a spec home, listed for
$5,750,000 (just reduced from $6,498,500). This home is 11,585 square feet on a 80,776 square foot lot on Casa Blanca Drive in Paradise Valley. Click here to view the MLS listing including all 50 photos.
One of my pet peeves is what I call the “luxury tract home”. The “luxury tract home” syndrome is caused by spec home builders who found a design formula that worked and never deviated from it. This means that many homes I view, look just like 5 others I saw in the last week, which of course is at odds with the whole concept of a luxury home. If one is going to purchase a luxury home, then typically, one expects that it should be unique in every way. Who wants a cookie cutter luxury home or an extra large “tract home” with granite?
Why was this home on Casa Blanca one my favorite? This builder dared to put some personality into the home. It is very large, very palatial and yet pretty livable. Actually, I don’t think the photos do it justice. It is much prettier with the crisp accent of Arizona sunlight. I love detail and I notice everything. This home was built with a very high standard of craftsmanship from the dome ceiling murals to the pavers on the driveway. And – I love all the Spanish tile. It is truly a home with a unique and classic touch.
