ARCHITECTURAL SPOTLIGHT
KENDLE DESIGN COLLABORATIVE BRENT KENDLE
“Great
projects start with great owners, owners with a vision,” says featured Architect Brent Kendle.
The owner of this Paradise Valley soft-contemporary estate, met with several architectural firms and quickly realized that Kendle Design Collaborative (a member of Arizona Residential ArchitectsARA) became their choice to carry out their vision. What could have been a stressful experience for them turned into an enjoyable, efficient and succinct process. The result is an astonishing transformation that expanded and embellished their initial vision and leveraged the full potential of the home and its surroundings. Denise Pruitt and Kirsten Johnson, Luxury Realtors with Arizona Best Real Estate had the recent opportunity to sit down with Brent Kendle and the owners to discuss the details of this project. Arizona Best Real Estate: What was your vision for this project? Brent Kendle: Clean modern minimalism meets southwest resortstyle living with rich use of elegant materials, sophisticated detailing, blurring the line between indoor and outdoor living spaces.
Arizona Best Real Estate: How do you select materials ? Brent Kendle: Materials are chosen not just for their inherent beauty and low maintenance, but for their indigenous qualities as well, resulting in a home that is truly in harmony with its site and is expressive of its unique place in the world. Arizona Best Real Estate: What are your favorite features of the home? Brent Kendle: The chef's kitchen, not just in name, but in true layout and functional use is arranged similar to a commercial version. It features three stations, a chef's table made of fiddle back Anigre wood, commercial-grade appliances and an imported espresso bar. The combination of elegant materials used such as book-matched East Indian Rosewood and Anigre against stainless-steel, limestone floors and quartz countertops make this a chef’s ultimate playground without losing the cozy residential feel. When I look at the stainless-steel and glass suspended staircase against the limestone backdrop, I can't help seeing James Bond or one of his female companions walk down this flight of stairs. The staircase is an artistic element and focal point of the home that promotes connectivity between the three most active areas; the great room, kitchen and theater/game lounge The second floor lounge is a mixture of stone, quartz surfaces, steel, glass and fire. Equipped with a Crestron and Lutron system controlled with an iPad® interface, this room transforms easily from an entertainment lounge to a state-of-the-art theater room. One of the best features of this is the patio that overlooks the 33-foot saltwater pool and offers panoramic city light and mountain views. For more information and additional photographs of the property represented please contact Denise Pruitt and Kirsten Johnson with Arizona Best Real Estate at 800-366-8064 or 480-948-4711, PruittAndJohnson@ArizonaBest.com.

A REFINED MODERN ESTATE Paradise Valley, Arizona Arizona Best Real Estate is pleased to feature the work of Scottsdale based Kendle Design Collaborative. Kendle is also a member of Arizona Residential Architects (ARA), a distinguished organization of 15 leading architectural firms, represented on the pages that follow. Few places exemplify true luxury like Paradise Valley, Arizona. Nestled amongst The Phoenix Mountain Preserve, Camelback Mountain and Mummy Mountain, residents of Paradise Valley enjoy the diversity of architecture, sweeping mountain views, boutique resorts, public and private golf amenities such as Paradise Valley Country Club and borders Phoenix and Scottsdale. As the Crown Jewel of the Valley, the town is known for acre-plus lots and estates while maintaining its rural charm and affluent caché of not being populated with commercial buildings and businesses. Known as a "dark" town, low density lighting protects the night skies and extraordinary views.
The outdoor spaces include a professional grade lighted tennis court and separate sport court. The family room is the heart of the home with clearstory windows, fireplace and dramatic art walls leading to the wrap-around covered patio with built in BBQ, wet bar and cozy seating areas. Retractable doors invite the outdoors in to capture the Arizona desert lifestyle. The James Bond-style steel, glass and limestone suspended staircase lead you to your gaming and entertainment lounge. Lutron and Crestron systems control the lighting, climate, fire features, audio, video and security systems.
A vision for all of these things were apparent to the owners of this soft contemporary masterpiece when it rose like a Phoenix from the ashes, transforming into what it is today; a refined modern estate. In addition, this 12,000-plus-square-foot contemporary desert jewel resides near the base of Mummy Mountain on more than 2 acres including 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and 3 powder rooms in the main house as well as 5 interior fireplaces, a 250-plus wine room, theater lounge and 6-car garage.

A CROWN JEWEL Eldon Manor San Antonio, Texas
N
By Stephanie Cavanaugh ear Mythical in its historical wealth, San Antonio also offers a trove of residential treasure. Among the most fabulous is Eldon Manor in Terrell Hills, an area rich with homes of extraordinary architectural prominence—leavened with a hefty dose of Texas charm. Rising behind iron gates and set on 1.8 acres of palms, fountains and manicured lawns, at more than 14,000 square feet, the home is ten times the size of the Alamo, just five miles away. Built in 1927, and completely reconstructed in the early part of this century, the residence reflects the extraordinary adventures of its world-traveling owner. The floors are inlaid Italian marble and hand-distressed hardwoods, the seven fireplaces are carved limestone, and the 14foot entry doors were hand-carved by a Polish artisan. A hand-painted replica of an Italian opera house ceiling caps the two-story great room. Columns came from the Far East, eighteenth- century Italian chandeliers dazzle ceilings. For storing the 1945 Chateau Mouton-Rothschild Jeroboam, the “lavish wine cellar holds up to 3,000 bottles,” says Eliza-
beth Priest, who is marketing the property along-side Jason Glast, of Keller Williams Luxury International, the city’s top luxury brokerage. Timelessly elegant yet absolutely contemporary, Priest calls the home, with its media room, Lutron lighting, indoor/outdoor sound, and state-of-the-art gym, “A brilliant merger of old world with modern amenities and security.” This home was designed as a family home, but with entertaining on a grand scale in mind. The prohibition-era ballroom on the third floor has been transformed into a game room and media room with a bar. “Schools here are among the best,” says Priest. “Terrell Hills is within the highly acclaimed Alamo Heights public school district and a short drive to several exceptional private schools.” “It is an ideal location,” she says. “Eldon Manor is within minutes of the the finest, upscale restaurants, shopping and the San Antonio Country Club…And should you wish to handpick your own Bordeaux, the airport is just five minutes away.” $6,950,000

Lisa Wadey—Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty It's not difficult to play golf in Paradise—Phoenix and Scottsdale. Arizona's golfing Mecca sports 185 public, private, and resort courses. That's 3,600 holes. "You could play another course just about every day," says Lisa Wadey, of Russ Lyons Sotheby's Realty. An avid golfer herself, who happens to be married to a professional and is the daughter of one as well, Wadey says: "Golf, real estate and people are my passions. I've combined the three." Not surprisingly, she specializes in luxury real estate near some of the areas most celebrated courses. But, she assures, Phoenix is not just for golfers. "People don't realize we have lakes for boating and mountain ranges for hiking," she says. Not to mention great dining, gardens, museums, and more than 100 art galleries. If--somehow--you're bored, there's Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon, and even the ocean is just a five-hour drive away.
Long considered a golden spot for the golden years, Arizona's delicious climate is increasingly attracting younger residents, particularly Floridians who love warmth but hate storms. "There are 360 days of sunshine," says Wadey. Without a hurricane on the horizon. "Coming out of the recession, this market is thriving," she says. "If you were to buy something here for a million dollars, it would be three to four million in California or on the east coast. The dollar goes a lot farther." Tempted? There's a 7,000-square-foot home on almost five stunning acres in the exclusive Silverleaf community, with its exceptional golf course and a 50,000-square-foot clubhouse that's virtually a private resort.

ARIZONA MARKETPLACE Carin Nguyen—The Carin Nguyen Team Scottsdale and Phoenix offer all of the luxuries of cosmopolitan cities, but still present the options to unwind in the serenity of nature. Whether you choose to watch a picturesque sunset explode across the Sonoran desert sky, or enjoy an upscale lounge in the city center of Scottsdale, there is something for everyone to enjoy. Carin Nguyen, of The Carin Nguyen Team, is a fourth generation Arizona native, and has been selling real estate there for 9 years. From a local’s viewpoint, Nguyen believes much of the buzz around Scottsdale and Phoenix is due to the diverse activities, and landscapes, available in each. “Within a 30-minute drive from Scottsdale-Phoenix, you can find hiking trails, golf courses, one of our many professional sports’ venues, a musical or theatrical production, or enjoy the vibrant city nightlife,” says Nguyen. “In less than 2 hours, you can be in the mountains surrounded by tall pines and snow.” With such wonderful amenities, it is no surprise that the PhoenixScottsdale area has attracted some star power. Both professional athletes and famous musicians have historically chosen the cities for their primary or second homes.
It seems everyone can appreciate the range of activities in the area: from upscale shopping to fine dining to mountain biking, the Phoenix-Scottsdale region is a playground for those who appreciate a healthy mix of outdoors and city life. Carin Nguyen and her team understand the importance of finding the perfect property for the lifestyle of their clients, and finding the most value in each deal negotiated. This could explain why “Real Trends” in The Wall Street Journal recognized the Carin Nguyen Team as the #2 team in the country for sales in 2011. Nguyen notes that there is much opportunity for buyers and sellers, alike, in the current Phoenix-Scottsdale market. These trends are due to a combination of the bank-owned inventory vanishing, the market appreciating, paired with interest rates that are at an alltime record low. So whether you are seeking mountain vistas or desert sunsets, consider purchasing your dream home in Arizona. Let yourself fall in love with these two unique cities that present endless possibilities.

By Stephanie Cavanaugh, Nicole Lauber, Cat Meyers This time of year, blustery cold winters are starting to calm down and the days are starting to get longer. The need to stay huddled up indoors is no more: it’s the perfect time to enjoy the great outdoors where these luxury snow properties are located. Since Colorado encompasses the majority of the Southern Rocky Mountains, it’s no surprise that the Centennial State has some of the most exquisite snow properties in the world. The Vail Mountain Lodge and Spa offers luxury lodging for those who love to spend the morning in a pilates class, the day out on the slopes, and the evening experiencing world-class dining.
For the luxury homebuyer who wants to enjoy their snow property year-round, Carrabassett Valley in Maine is in the middle of Sugarloaf Mountain, which holds the steepest vertical drop on the East Coast. After a long day of skiing on the mountain’s wellgroomed trails, heading home to your magnificent log cabin—complete with an English pub, 40-inch fireplace, a sauna, and more—will make your move worthwhile.

Vail, Colorado Vail Mountain Lodge and Spa is the epitome of a winter wonderland, located in the world-renowned ski resort community of Vail, Colorado and presented by Chadd Ziegler of Ascent Sotheby’s International Realty.
All of these great Vail activities are located only two hours away from the Mile High City of Denver and a brief 30-minute car ride to the Eagle County Regional Airport which offers direct flights to/from Miami, San Francisco, Chicago and Dallas.
Residents and visitors enjoy snow-covered peaks, cobblestone streets closed to traffic, world-class dining, luxury lodging and the best amenities Colorado has to offer. Come spend a couple of weeks in Vail, and you will experience the most beautiful nature scenes, where fun activities abound.
There is no shortage of luxury lodging while in Vail. Cobblestone streets lead up to one property that will not be on the market long, the 10th Mountain Suite, a fractionally owned, 2-bedroom residence at the Vail Mountain Lodge and Spa. Six weeks are guaranteed with the key holidays included—Christmas, New Years and Fourth of July. What better way to spend the holidays than here in Colorado?
With the Winter ski season upon us and an expected average snowfall of 38 feet, why not take a glide down the mountain in celebration of the 50th anniversary of this legendary ski resort? Snowshoeing, Nordic skiing, ice-skating, snowmobiling, and sleigh rides are favorite winter pastimes, while kids of all ages can enjoy the excitement at Vail’s Adventure Ridge. While there, children and adults alike get the thrill of a lifetime on the multi-lane tubing hill, miniature snowmobiles, ski-bikes and bungee trampolines.

Amenities at the Lodge include spa services, an 18,000-square-foot athletic club with a climbing wall and over 40 weekly classes of yoga, pilates, ski conditioning and more. The delicious Terra Bistro Restaurant offers divine meals, and the concierge (who will gladly pre-stock your fridge prior to arrival), 24-hour room service, daily housekeeping and on-mountain ski storage are great luxuries.

Carrabassett, Maine When you bring up Maine's Sugarloaf mountain on Google Maps there's little to be seen but nature and the highest skiing mountain facility on the East Coast. Tucked in the far northwest region of the state, you will find a four season recreation center. Sugarloaf's Carrabassett Valley is at the heart of a mountain range with the steepest vertical drop on the East Coast for alpine skiers and miles of trail for cross country enthusiasts. The ITS snowmobile system is nearby traversing mountain trails and groomed snowroads as they twist and curve, crossing miles of lakes and mountains. It's a sportsperson's paradise in milder months as well, with hiking and biking, fishing, boating and excellent golf. Not surprisingly, it's also the home of the Carrabassett Valley Academy, which has schooled Olympians like Bode Miller, Seth Wescott and Kirsten Clark. “If your family has ability and loves the outdoors, this is the spot,” says Dr. Irwin, who is currently offering the Loaf's most spectacular property—a storybook log home on a massive scale that is so extraordinary it took a masterful local craftsman over seven years to complete.
Hardly child's play. Set on nearly three wooded acres with 290-plus linear feet on a babbling brook, with a magnificent deck looking up to Sugarloaf Mountain, the 6,800-square-foot log home features three master bedroom suites, seven stone, floor to ceiling, fireplaces and two great rooms—one styled like an English pub with a 40-inch fireplace and a game room. Amenities also include a sauna, a hot tub, and what Dr. Irwin calls a “three-season room,” a screened porch in summer that becomes a glassed conservatory in chillier months. This resort within a resort offers access to the perfectly groomed cross country trails outside the front door. This beautiful on mountain home is served by a shuttle bus that passes the house every half hour for the five minute trip to the stellar slopes. This home is being marketed through Laurent L’Heureux.

BOCA GRANDE/GASPARILLA ISLAND, FLORIDA
WATERFRONT SERENITY By Natalie Watson There is a certain sense of calm that waterfront living provides. You can wake up every morning and have a front row seat to the sun rising over the waterfront. The water may be smooth and untouched, like a large table of glass, or you may hear the waves crash upon the shore. In Boca Grande, Fla., on Gasparilla Island, the open views and serenity are the greatest aspect of owning a waterfront property. “Here, waterfront properties are limited,” says Peter Sieglaff, realtor at Gulf to Bay Sotheby’s International Realty. “Gasparilla Island has beautiful properties, ranging from Mediterranean style homes with tile roofs, to old Florida wooden stilt homes and elaborate modern masterpieces. You have options of living on the Gulf of Mexico, with a white sandy beach as your backyard oasis, to living on the bay front or on a canal.” Popular activities on Gasparilla Island include fishing, boating and shelling as well as recreational activities such as biking, golf and tennis. The islanders also indulge in many social activities offered in the community including men’s and women’s clubs, events at the local repertory theatre, and nature and environmental groups. Residents of Boca Grande are known to be strong environmental advocates and have a high interest in land conservancy, the perfect explanation as to why the island has maintained such natural beauty. Located at 1644 Treasure Lane in a magnificent waterfront neighborhood called Boca Grande Isles is a stunning property with views of Gasparilla Sound and the Pete Dye designed Gasparilla Inn and Club golf course. Designed around a charming front courtyard filled with walk paths and palm trees, this spacious property has 5bedrooms and 5 ½-bathrooms, a breakfast room, artist/ exercise studio, and a fantastic second-floor office retreat with beautiful wood flooring, wood paneled walls, private balcony and
