Lost Canyon

Privacy and Seclusion. Just 35 homes cut into the Canyon just north of the 101 Freeway Loop that leads to North Scottsdale.

Minutes from DC Ranch and Silverleaf, Scottsdale zip code 85255 contains some of the most exclusive homes in Arizona.

Elevations are more than double that of nearby Scottsdale Quarter and Kierland Commons, which residents claim provides a 10 degree temperature differential.

Guard Gated community of 35 homes on 5-10 Acre lots

Building envelopes were sited to optimize views, privacy, solar orientation and other attributes of the land including ridgelines, washes, significant vegetation and rock outcrops.

The views feel identical to the Upper Canyon of neighboring Silverleaf. Without the private Clubhouse & Golf, but the lots are double the size and the homes are half the price

Home on Lot #34 and Adjacent Lot #33 were recently Listed for sale by the original owner

A 5 bedroom home on 6 Acres was just listed for $5,850,000. An adjacent 9 Acre undeveloped Lot is listed for $1,350,000. The two provide a custom home builder-owner the opportunity to live in "on-site" while building new. Or to purchase both for continued enjoyment of a combined 15 acre Sonoran desert oasis. Both lots back to the Mountain Preserve.

Homesite #34 sits on nearly 6 acres. Adjacent 9 Acres is also available.

Features #34

A Steel clear span steel truss system was used to eliminate the need for exterior load bearing walls. This allows walls of glass to completely wrap the exterior with retractable glass. In addition, the home wraps around a glass enclosed open-air courtyard-atrium providing views up the ridge.

Architect Gordon Rogers worked with the owner for 4 years to achieve a truly remarkable must-see creation.

Sounds of water falling into a negative edge pool amplify the seclusion of the canyon. Fully retractable glass walls provide passive ventilation at an altitude of 2,190 feet.

True Indoor-Outdoor Living was the Focus of the Design

Behind kitchen, a glass hallway leads past wine bar and outside patio barbecue access, past another powder bath to elevator and stairway leading to downstairs Theatre and Accessory rooms.
