Property Description

Backs to protected desert--one of this North Scottsdale home's most compelling advantages. Set on a .61-acre lot in Las Piedras, this single-level 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath retreat borders a designated Natural Area Open Space tract, creating exceptional privacy, mountain views and dramatic Arizona sunsets with no rear neighbor. Powered sun shades frame the scenery from inside, while the backyard delivers resort-style living with a pool, heated spa, built-in BBQ and pizza oven. New A/C units (2025), re-coated roof 3-4 yrs ago, spray-foam insulation, professionally air-sealed ducts add comfort and efficiency. A 3-car garage, no HOA, and convenient access to Carefree, Cave Creek, golf, trails and North Scottsdale dining complete the lifestyle. YOUR BACKYARD ENDS WHERE PROTECTED DESERT BEGINS
Some homes offer a view. This one offers something far harder to reproduce: privacy, open desert, mountain scenery and a genuine sense of space.
Set on approximately .61 acre in Las Piedras, this beautifully maintained single-level North Scottsdale home backs to a designated Natural Area Open Space (NAOS) corridor, creating an extraordinary desert backdrop with no immediate rear neighbor. Scottsdale's NAOS program was created to preserve native Sonoran Desert, scenic corridors, wildlife habitat, washes and natural vegetation, and the City states that buildings are not permitted within dedicated NAOS areas. ScottsdaleAZ
That protected setting is one of this property's defining advantages.
Step into the backyard and the home begins to make sense in an entirely different way. Mountain views stretch beyond the property, mature desert landscaping frames the setting, and Arizona sunsets become part of everyday life. The outdoor environment feels private, peaceful and remarkably removed from the city, even though dining, shopping, golf and recreation remain close at hand.
The backyard was designed to be enjoyed. A sparkling pool and heated spa invite long afternoons in the Arizona sunshine, while the built-in BBQ and outdoor pizza oven create a natural gathering place for family and friends. Covered outdoor areas provide shade when you want it, while the open desert beyond gives the property a sense of scale that is increasingly difficult to find.
Inside, the connection to the scenery continues. Powered sun shades can open to showcase the surrounding desert and mountain views, while the single-level floorplan offers 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and approximately 2,879 square feet of comfortable living space. The home also includes a three-car attached garage, formal and casual living areas, a split primary suite, vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, dual-pane windows and an owned water softener.

The home has also been carefully maintained. New A/C units were installed in 2025, and the home features spray-foam insulation and professionally air-sealed ductwork for added comfort and efficiency. The roof was recoated in 2022 and has been extremely well maintained, according to the seller. These are the kinds of practical improvements that allow the next owner to focus less on projects and more on enjoying the lifestyle.
LAS PIEDRAS -- QUIET, LOW-DENSITY NORTH SCOTTSDALE LIVING
Las Piedras offers a very different feel from larger master-planned communities. MLS subdivision data identifies 88 improved homesites, all single-story, with an average lot size of approximately 26,047 square feet. That creates a neighborhood with generous spacing, lower-density character and a strong relationship with the surrounding desert. My Listings _ Search Results _ ...
Even better, there is no HOA. My Listings _ Search Results _ ...
That combination--larger lots, single-story homes, desert surroundings and no HOA--is increasingly hard to replicate in North Scottsdale.
CAREFREE & CAVE CREEK
A short drive north brings you into two of the Valley's most distinctive communities.
Carefree offers a relaxed desert-town atmosphere centered around local shops, restaurants, Spanish Village and its iconic sundial. The Carefree Desert Gardens add another uniquely Arizona element to the area, making downtown Carefree feel more like a destination than a typical commercial district. Carefree
Cave Creek brings a completely different energy. The town proudly embraces its Western heritage, with art galleries, boutique shops, golf, hiking, restaurants, saloons and one of the Valley's most recognizable Old West personalities. Its own tourism bureau describes a mix of cowboys, horses, art, shopping, food, trails and desert sunsets. Cave Creek, AZ
It's easy to imagine a Saturday that starts with breakfast in Cave Creek, includes a hike or round of golf, and ends back home watching the desert sky turn pink and gold from your own backyard.
THE SONORAN DESERT IS PART OF THE LIFESTYLE
Scottsdale's McDowell Sonoran Preserve encompasses more than 30,500 acres and over 230 miles of multi-use trails, protecting one of the largest permanently protected urban desert environments in the world. Hiking, biking, horseback riding and miles of Sonoran Desert scenery are all part of the North Scottsdale lifestyle. ScottsdaleAZ
Cave Creek expands those possibilities even further, with rugged desert hiking, horseback riding and the 2,154-acre Spur Cross Ranch Conservation Area, where trails pass through native desert, riparian habitat and dramatic terrain. Cave Creek, AZ
GOLF COUNTRY
Golf is woven into this part of Scottsdale as well. Nearby options include some of Arizona's most recognized desert courses. The Boulders offers two 18-hole Jay Morrish-designed courses, while Troon North's Monument and Pinnacle courses wind through high Sonoran Desert terrain beneath Pinnacle Peak. Hilton
Whether golf is part of your weekly routine or simply part of the scenery and lifestyle, this is one of the Valley's signature golf corridors.
WHY THIS HOME IS DIFFERENT
Plenty of Scottsdale homes have pools.
Plenty have mountain views.
Plenty have beautiful desert landscaping.
But far fewer combine:
" More than half an acre
" A single-level floorplan
" Protected NAOS directly behind the property
" No immediate rear neighbor
" Mountain views and sunset skies
" Pool + heated spa
" Built-in BBQ + outdoor pizza oven
" 3-car garage
" No HOA
" New A/C units installed in 2025
" Roof recoated in 2022 and exceptionally well maintained
" Quick access to Carefree, Cave Creek, golf, dining and Sonoran Desert recreation
This is not simply a home with a backyard.
It is a North Scottsdale retreat whose backyard opens to protected desert.
And that is a setting that cannot simply be recreated somewhere else.
Buyer to independently verify NAOS boundaries, restrictions, property features and all material facts.
