This is a historic home called White Gates designed by architect Al Beadle. Beadle, who won an award for this home, was a well known architect in the Phoenix area. His mid-century modern designs can be found in a variety of locations around town. I featured some apartments he designed back in August here.
The unfortunate thing is that this house has been sitting vacant for many years now. I understand that the current owner would sell it if he could find someone willing to do the restoration work. It sits on prime real estate in a neighborhood with multi-million dollar homes. It has come very close to being demolished several times before. There is a history and more photos on
this site.

Stuck in the middle again.
Very different.
I love that one, and I am surprised it is still sitting empty. If I won the PowerBall,
It is wonderful. I remember your previous post and I had gone through a bunch of links about Beadle. I hope someone saves it.
He could have used a landscaper.
Very unique and different.
It doesn't really fit in with the landscape. Maybe that is part of the issue?
It looks like a beehive
I really like these type of designs, they are kind of like MCM.
