Desert views, space to live, and none of the upkeep--this North Scottsdale lock-and-leave residence stands apart from anything else in Portico. With a layout and scale rarely found in condo living, it offers the comfort and flow of a single-family home paired with the ease of a low-maintenance lifestyle. Positioned to take in sweeping, unobstructed views of the McDowell Mountains, this home delivers a sense of openness and privacy that's hard to replicate. Inside, every detail has been thoughtfully elevated. Wide-plank hardwood flooring runs throughout, while the primary suite feels like a private retreat with a spa-style bath and steam shower. Custom-designed closets maximize storage, and tailored window treatments add both sophistication and efficiency. The kitchen is built for those who appreciate performance and design, featuring Sub-Zero refrigeration and Wolf appliances, including a convection steam oven--ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. What truly sets this residence apart is the seamless indoor-outdoor living. The expansive private outdoor space offers room to relax, dine, and enjoy the desert backdrop--more in line with a home than a typical condominium. Additional features include a private storage unit on the same floor, two reserved parking spaces, and an intimate, boutique setting with only eight total residences. Each level is shared with just one other home, creating a quiet, highly private environment. Set in a prime North Scottsdale location, you're minutes from top-tier golf, scenic trails, acclaimed dining, and upscale shopping, all while enjoying a peaceful, view-filled setting. Opportunities like this are few--this is not your typical Portico residence, but a uniquely spacious, view-driven home designed for effortless living.
