The Last House on the Tour

 

The last home on the Phoenix Home and Garden tour was what is called a "spec" home.  This home was built specifically to sell and has never been lived in yet.  


This was a very modern home with lots of glass in every room.

The landscape included a big saguaro cactus placed right at the entrance with a large hole in the porch ceiling so it can grow out through the hole.  




























The back of the house faces the mountains so there will always be a spectacular view to enjoy.  You can see some blooming Palo Verde trees just over that attractive garden wall.


Behind the seating area was a lovely gas fireplace.  Perfect for those chilly winter nights in the desert.  


The pool was interesting with a little path way across it near the windows.  I didn't attempt to cross it but I saw many people who did.  One lady did it in very high heels.  

Tomorrow I'll show you some photos from inside.  And, I'll reveal the price.

  6. Keen trick putting that house last. Priming the pump, you might say. :-)

  8. Lacks warmth in my opinion. The skylight for the cactus was a nice touch though.

  9. Looks like a fancy prison to me. Perhaps for politicians and other felons.

  12. I'm not a modernist, pure and simple. It feels very cold to me.
