Cave Creek, AZ 85331
$648,000
4 beds/3.5 baths
3 car garage
3560 sq. ft.

This authentic custom Southwestern Territorial home was masterfully-crafted by Capuzzo Custom Builders. Nothing in this home has been manufactured; everything is hand-crafted, making it one-of-a kind! Attention to detail is evident from the moment you arrive at the iron driveway entry gates. With a peaceful and serene Cave Creek location and plenty of options for even more land use on the 1.1 acres, this home is perfect for the desert dweller or equestrian.

This home was built as a private estate. Through the artistic iron gates you are lead to a private courtyard and auto court. The territorial design elements are integrated into everything from the custom stucco finish to the doors on the 3 car garage.

Upon entering the home you are welcomed by the grand entertaining great room. Expanses of stained saw-cut concrete floors compliment the detailed ceilings. Towering wood beamed ceilings with exquisite hand hewn vigas, lattillas, and corbels create authenticity in design. The plaster walls serve as the perfect base for all of the architecturally unique luxury details. A built-in, hand-carved buffet makes a great serving area for entertaining. 8 foot distressed solid Alder doors add authentic detailing throughout the home. All of the hardware throughout is by Emtek and features a gunmetal rustic finish.


The epicurean will love the gourmet Santa Fe style kitchen with all of it’s modern conveniences. Concrete and butcher block counters make for great prep surfaces and compliment the sleek white cabinetry with 42” uppers and rustic brick backsplash. Stainless steel appliances (Sub Zero refrigerator, GE Dishwasher, GE Profile cooktop) contrast with the rustic finishes found throughout the home. There is a breakfast room and island seating for casual dining. Just off the kitchen is the dining room with built-in china buffet/hutch.


Enjoy cozy nights in the family room with the brick surround fireplace located just off of the kitchen. With built-in niches and Southwestern details, including rustic wooden shutters, this room is cozy and accomodating. The split cedar ceiling in the kitchen and family room is a stunning example of the hand-crafted detailing throughout the home.

Constructed for the builder’s own residence, this home has many upgrades and efficiency features. For example, all of the mechanical systems are insulated, making the home’s systems very efficient. Also, there is underground return air and dual A/C units. The laundry room features a skylight. The home is pre-plumbed for wet bar, 2 more fireplaces & a BBQ. The home is also pre-wired for surround sound.

A Jack and Jill bath separates 2 very generously sized rooms, both of which have walk-in closets. The Jack and Jill bath features hand painted decorative Mexican tile on a custom vanity along with a walk-in shower. The powder room also boasts charming painted tile top on a hand-made vanity. Luxury finishes and Toto toilets are found in all bathrooms.


The 4th room is currently used as a home office. With the simple addition of a closet, the 4th bedroom could be a true 4th bedroom.


The captivating master bedroom is a welcome retreat, at any time of the day or night. A distinctive entry way with coved ceiling, unique lighting and deco niches all add character to the space. With its calming steam shower with rainhead, dual sinks with sleek travertine slab counters, expanses of wildfire slate surfaces, jetted tub and fabulous walk-in closet, you’ll enjoy the master suite.


The backyard boasts a spacious paver covered patio with wood beamed ceilings featuring latillas, vigas and corbel accents. The patio is perfect for family gatherings or entertaining year-round. The lot is expansive and has many possibilities for future uses.

Diamond Street

Scottsdale, AZ 85257

Papago Parkway

1841 sq. ft.
built in 1959

4 bedrooms/2 baths



Renovated HIP mid-century ranch on quiet pie-shaped, cul-de-sac North/South lot in South Scottsdale! Close to ASU, Sky Song, shopping, fabulous restaurants, 143, 101 and 202 freeways, & minutes to Sky Harbor airport! This is the ultimate location! No HOA! One of the biggest lots in the area.




The charming front exterior features fresh paint, retro window awnings and filigree metal posts, cute covered front patio with seating area and planting bed, low maintenance landscape, citrus trees, and 2 entry doors (one to family room and one to 4th bedroom/rec room).




The homeowners have lovingly remodeled this home. All new eco-friendly hardwood carbonized Bamboo flooring (2008) throughout the entire home offers a nice warm feel. The family room, 4th bedroom/Rec room and bedrooms 2 and 3 are all pre-wired for surround sound.
The previous owners even used the family room as a movie screening room with a 10 foot movie/TV screen!



All new lighting has been installed throughout the interior and exterior of the home including all new modern stainless steel ceiling fans in every room for maximum energy efficiency. A new 30-year architectural shingle roof was installed in 2007. The entire inside has fresh paint and all new baseboards in 2008. There is also a new 220 electrical panel installed with all new service to the home in 2006. All new outlets have been installed in the home as of 2008. The home has all copper plumbing and the washer and dryer and both included. The home also features a security system.
Oh, and there is no shortage of storage here!





The kitchen has been upgraded with all new appliances including new Kenmore Elite Trio Fridge, Kenmore smooth cooktop, Bosch dishwasher and modern midnight Quartz counters all in 2007. The cabinetry is all Birch and includes a large pantry and is very well complimented by the real hardwood flooring. There is a single light glass French door leading to the North facing extended back patio. The breakfast bar peninsula is the perfect place to snuggle up for a morning cup of coffee or pull up your laptop to find that perfect recipe for dinner; there’s plenty of room for stools and informal dining. The dining area is just off of the kitchen and opens up to a great room with a new gas fireplace (2006). The current homeowners had a 42” television above the fireplace which was just perfect with a sofa and a couple of over-stuffed chairs! Sliding glass doors also lead to the extended back patio perfect for entertaining! The owners even had all of the back concrete slabs professionally raised up for future expansion potential (see plans at home).




The Rec room can also be a 4th bedroom with an addition of a closet. The current owners used this room as hang-out room to entertain family and friends with a billiard table, poker table, television and music and a full bar with kegerators and such! It was professionally constructed with a licensed contractor and permits were obtained and closed. Recessed lighting and ceiling fans as well as surround sound are in this room. There is also a sep. exit to this room.




The bedrooms are all of generous size and have the hardwood flooring and stainless steel ceiling fans. The master bedroom is South facing with Single light French doors that open to a covered master patio (2006) that the current owners had built. All of the utilities have also been professionally moved by contractors so that if the future owners want to extend the master bedroom, it is ready to go with the concrete laid, the roof done, and the utilities moved! The master patio leads out to a pad of concrete laid for a hot tub with electric and GFCI already installed and ready for your new tub! The lot size is absolutely perfect for anyone that would like to build a custom pool! There are several producing citrus trees as well. A large retro workshop with electric is in the yard as well; it’s great for storage or bigger projects! A new block wall encompasses the entire property (2005).




The baths have been updated with new hardwood flooring, new modern cherry vanities, new deep base sinks, new European fixtures, new vanity mirrors, and the hall bath has all new tile in the shower/tub and both baths have new stainless shower fixtures!



This home lives very well for a mid-century ranch with its modern renovations!
