Piestewa Peak Modern - Hayes McNeil | Plus Minus Studio A rare offering at the base of Piestewa Peak, this remarkable residence was completely reimagined by acclaimed Arizona architect Hayes McNeil of Plus Minus Studio. The result is a sophisticated expression of contemporary desert architecture, blending clean modern lines with subtle Spanish influences and an exceptional sensitivity to site, scale, and material. Custom steel windows and doors frame mountain views, city lights, and curated landscape vignettes throughout, while a thoughtfully reconfigured floor plan creates an effortless connection between the home and its surroundings. Every element was considered with intention, resulting in a residence that feels both timeless and distinctly of its place. Inside, refined craftsmanship and architectural discipline define the experience. Rift-sawn oak millwork, custom built-ins, designer lighting, and carefully selected natural materials create interiors that are elegant, warm, and highly functional. A dramatic fireplace anchors the main living spaces, while integrated smart-home technology, motorized window treatments, Wi-Fi-enabled climate controls, tankless water heaters, and high-efficiency systems provide seamless modern convenience. The kitchen and dining spaces were designed for both daily living and entertaining, featuring a custom banquette, beverage center, walk-in pantry, and dedicated coffee bar. The primary suite serves as a private retreat, opening to an elevated terrace with sweeping sunset views over the Phoenix skyline and a beautifully appointed bath complete with a steam shower. The outdoor environment is equally compelling. More than 300 strategically placed plantings create a mature desert landscape that enhances privacy while preserving long-range views. The pool, gardens, and outdoor living spaces unfold with the confidence of a carefully executed design project, where every detail contributes to a cohesive experience. Built-in seating areas, a poolside lounge, professional-grade misting systems, extensive landscape lighting, and a rooftop observation deck create a series of memorable spaces for gathering, relaxation, and year-round enjoyment. A historically inspired stone wall introduces texture and character, providing a thoughtful "wabi-sabi" counterpoint to the home's crisp architectural forms. Ideally positioned near the trails of Piestewa Peak, with convenient access to the Biltmore, Downtown Phoenix, Sky Harbor International Airport, and the SR-51 corridor, the property offers a rare balance of privacy, connectivity, and architectural significance. Conceived for long-term ownership rather than resale, the quality of execution is evident throughout. Impeccably maintained and recently completed, this is a fully realized residence of enduring design, offered for those who value architecture, craftsmanship, and an exceptional way of living.
