The cozy area for seating at the corner of the covered patio includes another beautifully crafted fireplace.

This patio off the Great Room is lined with limestone columns with copper details and the flooring was artistically designed using limestone and travertine.

The spacious patio between the home and the guest house is a wonderful entertaining area that includes a wet bar and a cooking area with a stainless steel BBQ.

The architectural details of this residence whether high or low are exceptional and the views from this property are exceptional, as well.

The upstairs includes a lovely terrace with views of Piestewa Peak, the grounds and the Estates Golf Course.

The location of 15 Biltmore Estates Dr. offers picturesque views of the Arizona sunsets.

The artistically designed copper fountain features cascading water that flows into the pool.

The delightful ramada is a quiet spot adjacent to the pool offering a great view of the golf course and the grounds.
