On the Market: A Musical Masterpiece in Desert Mountain

Tucked high above the Sonoran Desert floor in the exclusive, guard-gated enclave of Desert Mountain, this estate offers privacy, luxury, and the rare availability of a Desert Mountain Golf Membership – a coveted invitation into one of the most prestigious communities in the Southwest.

Originally designed by renowned architect Terry Kilbane and constructed by Manship Builders, this one-of-a-kind home was reimagined in 2022 by architect and builder Justin Kilbane. The result is a blend of desert architecture and modern sophistication, thoughtfully sited along a ridgeline to capture full southern exposure. From every room, residents are treated to views of the mountains, valleys, and city lights beyond.

The estate sits on approximately five acres, with the option to purchase an additional ten-acre parcel, providing unparalleled seclusion and the possibility for future expansion. The residence itself is oriented in a linear design, capitalizing on its topography to maximize both privacy and panoramic sightlines.

The custom entry door opens into warm spaces defined by rich, beamed ceilings, copper accents, and native stonework. These materials are complemented by imaginative lighting fixtures that add sculptural dimension and ambiance throughout the home. Every element has been crafted with intention, from the copper hearth anchoring the great room to the thoughtful integration of textures and finishes.

The main living areas flow seamlessly into each other and connect with expansive outdoor spaces that are every bit as inspiring as the interiors. The centerpiece of the backyard is a dramatic grand piano–shaped pool, complete with a keyboard shelf and integrated spa bench. The terrace surrounding it offers multiple areas for dining, lounging, and taking in the surrounding vistas.

The nearly 7,200-square-foot home includes four bedrooms and four and a half baths, a fitness room with sauna, a media room, an executive office, a walk-in wine wall, and a stylish wet bar. A five-car, temperature-controlled garage ensures vehicles are kept in pristine condition year-round.

One of the most valuable offerings is its connection to Desert Mountain Club, where the purchase of a home like this opens the door to membership consideration.

Desert Mountain boasts seven golf courses, including six championship courses designed by Jack Nicklaus and the innovative No. 7, a par-54 course with a social atmosphere. The club includes restaurants, fitness and spa facilities, tennis and pickleball courts, and over 20 miles of private hiking and biking trails.

Whether relaxing poolside under starlit skies or teeing off at sunrise with the mountains as your backdrop, life at 42690 N 98th Place is a reminder that true luxury lies in the harmony of nature, design, and exceptional living. Learn more at sothebysrealty.com.
