they've created their own microclimate with the landscaping, it sits between a mountain and a golf course drawing in a natural breeze from above, the area is not saturated with latent parking lot and asphalt heated alongside denatured street sides. Even a tree lined street will naturally have less ambient heat with the same asphalt. These lots are large and not paved over everywhere like most subdivisions. These large lots that aren't paved over, cool down much quicker, and the shaded spaces naturally cool by 20-30 degrees without fans. Phoenix may have had high extremes in the past but the heat island effect created by the mass paving and small lots and anti nature/yard sentiment often exacerbates the issue of heat retention whether or not they claim 'smaller housing is more dense for more people' it still retains more heat, or if they are 'anti yard' for 'pro water', as if those have to oppose each other, then they often uproot trees 'to save water' while ignoring the energy savings that the tree provided by shading the house or that roots systems are healthier for soil than artificial rock yards or even the very basic that the desert is indeed full of grasses... environmentalism has been hijacked in all the worst ways. Plus summer nights are beautiful and Phoenix has clear skies. So I'd imagine any time of year would be good. You may be right about the snow bird thing, but it'd have to be a trophy property for sure, I'd imagine so rich guy had a family and chose the area for schools and keeping it White.
The design of this villa is inspired by one of the Morocco's traditional houses called( RIAD) which is known for their enclosed garden and courtyard ❤️🇲🇦❤️
In December 2021, the price was $20 million The swimming pool is 60'×60' 150,000 gallon HAND-TilED mosaic heated salt water pool Took approximately 10 years to create design and construct 17,912 square feet
A total and true GEM of s property! There is literally nothing else like it!! ❤❤
You would always feel like you are on a spectacular vacation in this home. BEAUTIFUL
How beautiful! From the view above, you would think that its a resort?!😳😊
This is a stunning home. I imagine it’s only used during the winter. Those two outdoor courtyard would get unbelievably hot in the Phoenix summer.

Good to see Arizona represented on the channel
This is stunning! The design is reminiscent of a Roman villa. Love it.
An absolutely gorgeous home. Not sure I could live there though but I'd certain visit it. The design seems a bit impractical. Yet, its also like art.
Sotheby's mean business when the British guy comes through.

I guess it's not my style. It doesn't feel inviting and it's quite dark. I love bright colors and open spaces in a home!
