Description
Iconic Bennie Gonzales Masterpiece at the Base of Mummy Mountain in Paradise Valley. A one-of-a-kind architectural treasure blending timeless design with refined modern living. Featured in Phoenix Home & Garden and originally crafted by legendary architect Bennie Gonzales in 1969 and masterfully remodeled by Greg Hunt, this adobe estate offers a rare blend of heritage, craftsmanship, and elegance.
Step through the custom Benny gates entry, personally designed by Gonzales and experience dramatic volume with raised ceilings, Venetian plaster walls, and antique hand-painted doors. Every inch speaks to bespoke luxury, from reclaimed New England oak floors to Loewen metal-clad windows and custom lighting by Creative Lighting Designs.
The chef's kitchen is a showstopper..
Supplements: Alder custom cabinetry, commercial-grade Jado 8-burner gas range, and integral concrete countertops. The adjacent butler's pantry features exotic South American wood countertops. Unwind in the richly paneled primary suite with coffered ceilings, heated bath floors, a steam shower, and a freestanding porcelain-enameled cast iron soaking tub. All guest suites have French doors to the outdoors , a classic Gonzales touch. Luxuriously appointed, step into a fully detached one-bedroom casita featuring exquisite custom cabinetry, kitchen, and washer & dryer. Outdoor living is resort-level with five private patios, an all-tile pool (resurfaced 2021), custom fountains, and lush landscaping framed by citrus, Chinese Elm, and olive trees. Seamless indoor-outdoor integration, a separate guest house, with a full kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, and tiled floors throughout. With expansive garage and storage units to complete the estate.
