Property Description

Iconic Architecture. Enduring Design. Canyon View Estates. Set within coveted Canyon View Estates at Ironwood Country Club, 73497 Mariposa Drive is a distinctive residence designed by accomplished architect David Prest, whose work has contributed to the architectural character of Ironwood. Strength and confidence define the architecture. Bold lines, dramatic scale, soaring ceilings and substantial proportions create a commanding presence, while expansive glass and seamless connections to the outdoors bring warmth, natural light and the surrounding desert landscape into the home. Beyond the substantial Teak wood entry door's, the dramatic living room immediately establishes the home's architectural significance. Ceilings approaching 20 feet create extraordinary volume, while strong structural forms, carefully considered sightlines and curated art lend a sophisticated, gallery-like quality. Positioned on an exceptionally generous corner lot and enveloped by mature landscaping, the residence offers remarkable privacy. A wraparound garden and multiple patios extend the living spaces outdoors, with nearly every room enjoying a connection to the landscape and Southern mountain views. A private spa provides a secluded retreat, while the community pool is just steps away through the property's rear gate. The primary suite balances scale with intimacy, featuring its own fireplace, outdoor access and lovely Southern views. Substantially reimagined less than ten years ago, the residence reflects an emphasis on design, craftsmanship and sophisticated desert living. The interiors have been thoughtfully composed to complement the architecture, creating a home that feels distinctive yet timeless. Strong in form, sophisticated in execution and remarkably private, 73497 Mariposa Drive presents a rare opportunity to own a David Prest-designed residence within one of Ironwood Country Club's most desirable enclaves.
