Allan MacDonald DEFINED by HEART and HARD WORK

“

From the early days of my golf career to my current professional life, there has never been room for short cuts.

Allan MacDonald

Standing on the first tee, Allan MacDonald knows that every round signals a new beginning. Your last shot, your last score, even your last victory, is yesterday’s news.

W

hat counts is what you bring to the game today. Sure, experience, hard work and a solid commitment to excellence matter. But today, there is more to learn, more to accomplish.

For MacDonald, who hails from Scotland, the same is true when he steps through the threshold of a new listing or commits to finding the perfect home for a new buyer.

“From the early days of my golf career to my current professional life, there has never been room for short cuts,” explained MacDonald, who crossed the pond to play college golf for the University of Alabama and later turned professional. “Ours is a rapidly changing industry and Scottsdale, as a community, continues to grow and mature. I am able to help my clients truly understand the marketplace, to illuminate the subtle differences within residential areas and private clubs, all so we can determine the right fit for them. I can do that because I’ve been fully immersed in the details for the past 15 years.”

That intense focus has led to elite status in his profession, one that happily blends MacDonald’s passion for the game of golf with helping others discover the residential environment that best suits their lifestyle goals. Consistently ranked by the Arizona Business Journal as a Top Ten Agent and in the top 1% of agents in America, clients have trusted him to close more than $300 million in luxury residential real estate.

Perhaps what matters most to MacDonald, is that many of those clients are now friends and playing partners.

“There is nothing more rewarding than an enjoyable round with a satisfied client,” said MacDonald. “On that day, the sun is shining, the sky is blue and we’ve come full circle.”

THE BACON HOUSE at Desert Mountain

By Stephen Des Georges

I

t is a chicken-and-egg question, a real estate cause-and-effect dilemma. In this case, the question becomes: Is The Bacon House at Desert Mountain in northern Scottsdale perfectly suited for its acre-plus, cactus-studded, views-abounding setting, or is it the incredible setting that is ideally suited for a home the magnitude of which only architectural designerextraordinaire Bob Bacon could envision.

The answer, of course, is “both.”

The Bacon House is full of superlatives. It has been talked about, written about, wondered at and has captured the full, undivided attention of just about everybody in the luxury home and design architecture industries. It will harmonize with one of the most sought-after luxury home locations in the country.

Start with legendary designer Mr. Bacon, who has studied, mastered and advanced architectural design like few others.

He is an award-winning visionary who has spent nearly 50 years perfecting a marriage of sorts between home and environment. His design philosophy is straight forward and loaded with good sense: “To respect the beauty of the desert and achieve harmony with its visually fragile landscape

30

| FI N EST GO L F PRO PE RT Y

requires subordinating the built environment to the natural environment, thus imposing a minimal visual impact on nature’s beauty,” he says.

Building on The Bacon House will begin when a buyer emerges. The home – what Bacon calls “an homage to early modernism” that is a decidedly modern but “humanist” approach to the design of living environments – will encompass 9,860 square feet of air-conditioned space (and more under roof!) and nestle on just more than an acre and a quarter in the High Sonoran Desert, an arid-yet-vibrant expanse Bacon believes is the most beautiful in the world.

To be constructed of the highest-quality building materials and finishes, the home’s systems and overall technology will leave nothing to chance, contributing not only to the owner’s comfort, but also to the sense of well-being, says Bacon. Protected southerly views are the rule, ranging as far out as 80 miles on a wide arc from east to west, including the McDowell Mountains, Lone Mountain and Black Mountains; unmatched Arizona sunsets; and glittering valley floor at night.

W

hat separates The Bacon House from others in his eye-popping gallery of designs from Canada to Japan and from Florida to Arizona is the back story of its creation. Longtime developer Jim Ikard, who owns the property at Desert Mountain that awaits The Bacon House, asked Bacon – a partner in other ventures – to design and develop the best house he could envision, without any outside influences. This allowed Bacon the time to resolve and massage the design to a greater level of detail than he says he was afforded on any previous home design.

“I was freed from the normal cost constraints and thus allowed to design and specify the very best, highestquality solution to every item and aspect of the home,” Bacon said of the

Ikard-inspired assignment in a recent interview about his namesake design. “I could demonstrate the foundational principles of my work, express the personal values that guide my decision-making, and follow my own aesthetic instincts regarding the home’s style, character and appearance.”

About that style, character and appearance: Visually arresting from a distance and even more so from the auto court in the front of the home, The Bacon House’s unique features include an open-air atrium, grand staircase and elevator, a lower level with guest apartment, a combination rec room/media room with walk-up wet bar and wine storage room, fresh-air cigar porch and water-with-noboundary infinity pool. Its private, public and semipublic functions have been purposefully aligned on two levels with smoothly flowing adjacencies and appropriate separations.

The nature of light is thoughtfully blended into the interior design, with Bacon noting, “Light is the most important element in my palette.”

Bacon notes that the extensive use of stone and concrete in the home plays a subtle part in the home’s overall comfort, allowing the capacity of their thermal mass to stabilize a room’s mean radiant temperature.

“The home boasts all the physical comforts and conveniences that today’s luxury buyers have come to expect,” says Bacon, whose best-in-class architectural design attributes include land planning, theme development,

“The Bacon House is an incredible piece of architectural design art, a legacy achievement of the highest order.”

design and even market positioning of such Scottsdale lifestyle landmarks as Desert Mountain, Desert Highlands, The Boulders Resort and the Scottsdale Princess Resort, and out-of-ZIP code benchmark properties Rimrock Inn in Banff, Canada; Shinjo Arden golf clubhouse at Yamagata Prefecture, Japan; and Avatar’s Solivita active-adult community in central Florida. “The Bacon House is suitable for a young couple, a growing family or mature professionals who enjoy entertaining and recreation; it lives as large or small as may be required by its owners.”

P

erhaps the most intriguing hallmark of the home, situated in Desert Mountain’s dramatic Saguaro Forest (named in recognition of the thousands of towering desert natives that rise across the community, including 38 on the property itself) is what fills the interior of the residence: a $1 million collection personally curated by Bacon and designed to create a completely immersive environment and experience. Beautiful furnishings and artwork – available under a separate bill of sale – represent the best of 20th-century modernism and help demonstrate the modern vision of the home. “In addition, I wanted to deliver the time-saving and stress-free convenience to our buyer of moving into a home that can be fully enjoyed from the first moment – no searching for the corkscrew or making special trips to stock the home with tools, equipment and supplies.”

Should the buyer opt to make those trips out of Desert Mountain to load up on necessities, Realtor Davis Driver, a longtime friend of Bacon and the agent of record on The Bacon House, is prepared, as usual, to assist.

“Not only will acquiring this complete package make life easier for the home’s owner in getting moved in, we can also make life easy after move-in by connecting them with

helpful, professional service providers,” says Driver, who with wife Ann heads The Davis Driver Group, a five-person, boutique, luxury-oriented residential real estate operation in Scottsdale. “We know and work with the best property and vehicle managers, maid services, private chefs, personal trainers and shoppers, babysitters, limousine services, physicians, veterinarians and more. Whatever an active, busy family needs to stay focused on the things they want to do while they are here, we are happy to help with.”

Bacon says, “Nothing is arbitrary about my designs; everything contributes to the whole.” What this means to the discerning buyer of The Bacon House is a one-of-a-kind home in a one-of-a-kind setting with one-of-a-kind features designed for comfort and convenience.

Desert Mountain Whisperer:

DAVIS DRIVER

By Stephen Des Georges

R

ealtor-extraordinaire Davis Driver is The Man. He is King of the (Desert) Mountain. He has walked his talk – every acre of it – and has even developed a one-of-a-kind software system that brings the home buying experience at Desert Mountain to a whole new level.

Driver, a native Texan, came to Desert Mountain in 1991 with wife Ann, and has since registered an estimated $750 million in sales in and around the luxury-lifestyle community. In that time, the Realtor-golfer-outdoorsman has literally walked nearly every flat spot, canyon, wash, outcropping and rugged ridge, acquiring an encyclopedic knowledge of the 8,000-acre Desert Mountain setting and all it has to offer discerning homebuyers and sellers.

“In my time here, Desert Mountain has grown from being ‘merely’ a great golf community into a complete outdoor lifestyleoriented place to live or to have a vacation home,” says Driver, who is the agent of record on the highly anticipated $13 million “Bacon House” at Desert Mountain, an homage to early modernism designed by internationally acclaimed design visionary Bob Bacon.

“There is a powerful mix of attractions here at Desert Mountain, and, as the years have gone by, the many advantages of variety of real estate and lifestyle options have won over many people.”

With more than a quarter-century of successful sales of highend Desert Mountain properties, Driver’s experience is unmatched when it comes to “walking the talk.” In fact, with his expertise and knowledge of the community and its trends in luxury sales, Driver has been able to shake up the industry with a proprietary software system designed to benefit the Desert Mountain homebuyer by better targeting the ideal residence for each individual prospect.

“Our RCD9 System absolutely enhances the buyer’s experience,” he says. “There are many variables in Desert Mountain real estate that the MLS (Multiple Listing Service – a generic listing service of houses for sale that can be shared

by Realtors) doesn’t cover, variables of threshold importance

to every buyer. We closely track these unique variables in our system, allowing us to offer a more customized and time-efficient experience that takes into account the many criteria each buyer brings to the table when looking to purchase a home.”

Driver’s system overcomes the limitations of the MLS – especially when working with real estate in an upscale, gated, private club-oriented recreational community – going above and beyond the traditional recipe of home buying ingredients to include floor plan types, solar exposures, view “grades” and even the likelihood of a home being hit by an errant golf shot.

“We assume the role of counselor, rather than merely a salesperson,” he adds. “Educating people about what is on the menu helps each buyer be clear about just how many options they have and which are the best for their particular, unique desires.”

There are other ways Driver’s intimacy with his Desert Mountain surroundings works to the homebuyer’s advantage.

“What we are selling is a complete ‘lifestyle’ experience,” says Davis, whose wife Ann is also a licensed Realtor and joins him at The Davis Driver Group, along with partners Kathleen and Jack Spidell. “Being here as long as we have, we not only can help our buyer evaluate Desert Mountain – ‘the place’ – before helping them look for and acquire an individual piece of property, but after they have purchased we can, and do, make it a priority to introduce them to the community – other homeowners, local services and attractions, houses of worship, things to do and more.”

Davis Driver is The Man. He has taken the time to learn his renowned product and his valued and uncompromising home buyers. He uses his knowledge and instincts – and his groundbreaking RCD9 System – to match people with places. He has walked the talk, and nobody does it better.

LIFESTYLE SCORECARD:

The Gallery Golf Club Is A Destination Ace

By Stephen Des Georges

Sometimes, the right words don’t come.

T

he dramatic canyons of the Tortolita Mountains. The sweeping grandeur of the Sonoran Desert. Thirty-six holes of highly acclaimed championship golf. A sports club that redefines the breadth and depth of a wellness focus. World-class dining with thoughtful cuisine options and casual elegance.

Attractive membership offerings that extend beyond the club’s matchless boundaries.

But The Gallery Golf Club at Marana – carved from 6,200 acres of natural beauty – is more than that.

Home away from home is what The Gallery feels like.

Award-winning golf is what The Gallery plays like. A place where lifelong friendships are made and social activities abound is what The Gallery looks like. An exclusive premier club experience is what The Gallery lives like.

Of all that is The Gallery, golf rises to the top. “Only a very few private clubs in the world can boast two courses of such distinction – our North and South Gallery courses – yet both are recognized for their playability and daily allure; each offers uniquely different experiences, elevations, views, challenges and rewards,” says PGA professional and The Gallery Membership Director Eric Lyman.

| FI N EST GO L F PRO PE RT Y

Opened in 1998, The North Course has been ranked No. 1 in Southwest Arizona by Golf Digest and is one of Golfweek’s “Top 100 Modern Courses,” hosting the 2014 Men’s PAC-12 Golf Championship and co-hosting the 2001 PGA Tucson Open. The South, meanwhile, teed up for the first time in 2003 and is recognized by Golf Digest as a top-100 U.S. residential course while placing in Golfweek’s top-100 courses and top-100 new layouts. The South Course hosted the 2007 and 2008 WGCAccenture Match Play Championships, won by Henrik Stenson and Tiger Woods, respectively.

Over two decades, The Gallery Golf Club has delivered superior course conditions, warm and friendly guest service, and a premier experience. Camaraderie, social events and a relaxed pace of life are cornerstones.

“Service in every department is the No. 1 focus here,” says The Gallery General Manager Elizabeth Pinapfel. “It’s about name recognition and being immediately accessible. Our doors are always open, and we pride ourselves on going above and beyond.”

The Gallery standard of excellence extends to head-of-theclass dining and wellness amenities.

“Where great food and drinks meet exceptional people,” The Gallery Restaurant is a gastronomical delight, creatively designed to satisfy discriminating palates. The Gallery Sports Club is the

Memberships at The The Gallery Golf Club Gallery are as varied as 14000 N. Dove Mountain Blvd. the destination’s many Marana, AZ 85658 amenities. Four levels of 520 - 579 - 4118 exclusive membership are offered. The granddaddy GalleryGolf.com of them all – Club 63 – features golf and full sports club and dining privileges at The Gallery and nearby Golf Club at Dove Mountain, as well as rounds and privileges at fellow Icon Golf courses in California, Oregon and Virginia.

Sometimes, words don’t suffice, don’t adequately describe the magnificence of a surrounding, the thrill of the unexpected, the reward of the experience. The Gallery Golf Club at Marana, just 26 miles north of Tucson, is such an example – something just short of unbelievable.

mile-high city and nicknamed “Everybody’s Hometown” historic Prescott is nestled in the Ponderosa Pines of Prescott National Forest and less than a two hour drive from Phoenix.

In 1864, Prescott became the first capital of the Arizona Territory. In those days, the town was anchored by the infamous “Whiskey Row” with shady ladies and Wild West iconic guests like Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday.

Today, it is home to four of Arizona’s most prized museums, with endless art galleries, antique shops, and local eateries. Prescott has become a worthy destination for shopping and foodies.

It is also a spectacular destination for those whose prefer the outdoors with perfect weather that provides an average temperature of 70 degrees and four mild seasons offering just enough variation to make the weather both moderate and appealing. The natural beauty of Prescott is breathtaking – complete with granite mountains, lakes, streams, and rolling meadows filled with wildlife.

When you are done enjoying the view there are plenty of activities to experience the amazing natural surroundings. Fill your lungs with that amazing pine scent and explore the more than 400 miles of hiking, mountain biking, and equestrian trails. If water is more your style, spend the day on one of the city’s

Without a doubt there is always plenty to do in Prescott, which is known as “Arizona’s Christmas City” and holds the world’s oldest, continuously running rodeo. The 2020 Prescott Rodeo will represent 133 years of Western history.

The list of Prescott’s charms is not complete without mentioning the golf.

THE DISH: Chef Eddie Matney, Forest Highlands Golf Club COLORFUL, CREATIVE AND COMMITTED. Those are just a few of the effusive words one might use to describe Eddie Matney, a culinary pro who’s “melting pot” theory — one that embraces local and global influences in the kitchen (and in life) is enthusiastically embracing his new role as Executive Chef at Flagstaff’s Forest Highlands.

We checked in with Chef Matney to see what’s cooking in the high country.

FGP: The folks at Forest Highlands searched high and low to find an Executive Chef that would “fit the culture of the Club and possess the right leadership and skill set to enhance the culinary experience for their members.” Why were you the perfect fit?

EM: The truth is it was a fluke. In 2017 I agreed to help out.

One week turned into three and a half months. We all had a great time and it was clear it was a good fit for everyone.

The members were craving this kind of change and ready for innovative food. They were familiar with me and my restaurants and my work after so many years in the Valley.

EM: I take everything I do personally. And everyone on the team is excited and passionate about what we are doing. We will do our best to run things as efficiently as possible because that means we’ll have the resources to do even more. We see the members on a regular basis and they are great about providing feedback and we really appreciate that. We love hearing that the meatloaf reminded them of an old recipe of their grandmother’s because dining is not just about eating food but about creating great memories.

FGP: How will your “dynamic energy and renowned culinary style” be evident at the club?

FGP: What do the members have to look forward to in the months ahead?

EM: If you think about it, the members of a top notch club like Forest Highlands have worked hard and been successful in their lives and many, if not most, have eaten in outstanding restaurants, not just in AZ but around the world. Why should they settle for less in an environment where they have chosen to spend a lot of their personal time?

EM: So much! We have great relationships with some outstanding suppliers. We’ll have access to some terrific seafood from Hawaii, large lobsters and clams from the East Coast and some great produce and herbs from our own garden. I don’t want to spoil the surprises that are in the works.

The Club has given me a lot of freedom to do what I want to do and I think the members will continue to enthusiastically embrace and encourage that.

FGP: How will this club experience be different from your long history in the restaurant business?

FGP: So you are looking forward to the season ahead?

EM: When I get up in the morning — I can’t wait to go work!
