Description

Welcome to this remarkable property, thoughtfully crafted by the Edible Landscape Project, a home designed to live with the desert, not against it. This 3 bed / 2 bath residence is ideally located near the junction of the 202 and 101, offering exceptional convenience alongside sustainable desert living. Situated on a corner lot with a north/south orientation, every inch of this property has been developed with intention. The landscape features over 15 fruit and food bearing trees, making this a true edible oasis. A large cistern captures rainwater directly from the roof, supporting the landscape with minimal reliance on municipal water. This is more than a home it's a thoughtfully designed desert ecosystem. Scottsdale Sustainable Home award winner.
