Description

PRICED TO SELL, TURNKEY, and the VIEWS! Originally selected by Thunderbird developer Johnny Dawson for its commanding views and premier position along the 9th fairway on his championship golf course, this William F. Cody residence sits on one of the most exceptional lots at Thunderbird Country Club. Nearly 4,000 sq. ft. of timeless mid-century architecture has been thoughtfully updated with modern finishes, fresh interior and exterior paint, remodeled baths, new doors and hardware, and lighting--bringing a crisp, contemporary feel to Cody's original vision. Original blueprints are included.

Designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, the home captures breathtaking mountain and fairway views from every major room. A dramatic 16-foot entry with an oversized skylight fills the interior with natural light, leading to spacious living and dining areas and an air-conditioned 3-car garage.

The chef's kitchen is a centerpiece, featuring a large Vetrazzo waterfall island, custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and top-tier Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, including a dual-fuel range, double ovens, steam oven, microwave, pot-filler, wine fridge, and Bosch dishwasher. It opens to a beautifully redesigned courtyard anchored by a 40-foot saltwater pool and spa, outdoor fireplace, and generous entertaining space.

Each bedroom is ensuite. The expansive primary suite includes a private office and two walk-in closets with custom cabinetry. An attached guest casita with a private exterior entrance offers ideal separation and flexibility.

Additional features include three A/C zones, a high-capacity LG washer/dryer, an air-conditioned 3-car garage with epoxy floors and built-in cabinetry, a hot-water return system, leased solar (56 panels, 3 inverters) for enhanced efficiency.

This is a rare opportunity to own a Cody-designed home on a historically significant Dawson-selected lot--where mid-century pedigree meets modern luxury in one of Thunderbird's most coveted settings.
