Set along a quiet hillside in Forest Trails, this custom residence has always been defined by its relationship to the land--long views, layered horizons, and a sense of elevation that feels bothexpansive and grounding. Thoughtfully positioned on just over .4 of an acre, the home was designed to frame its surroundings through generous windows, multiple decks, and a flowingmulti-level layout that invites the outdoors in. At the heart of the home, the great room remains a signature space, with a fireplace, and where soaring windows draw the eye toward distant city lightsbelow and forested slopes. The kitchen was intentionally designed as a gathering place rather than a pass-through, anchored by a substantial island, granite counters, two ovens, two sinks, and a walk-in pantry. Recent kitchen enhancements include Renewal by Andersen windows, updated pendant lighting above the island, and a Bosch dishwasher, all opening naturally to a dining area and view-facing decks that have long hosted quiet mornings and unhurried evenings. A peaceful breakfast room with another fireplace off the kitchen has a lovely, unmistakable profile of Thumb Butte. A rare dumbwaiter connects levels with subtle practicality, a detail that reflects the home's original custom intent. The primary suite is tucked away for privacy and enjoys its own sense of retreat, enhanced by personalized climate control,walk-in closet, en suite bath, and covered porch. The lower level offers flexibility and separation with a private guest suite featuring outdoor access, a spacious family or recreation room/hobby/studio, with wet-bar and storage spaces that adapt easily to changing needs. Luxury vinyl plank flooring adds durability and continuity on this level, complemented by updated lighting, ceiling fans, and refreshed interior paint throughout the main and lower living areas. Behind the scenes, the home has been carefully updated to support comfort and peace of mind. Improvements include a full tear-off roof, a modern HVAC system in 2024, with integrated humidification, a dedicated mini-split serving the primary suite, an upgraded electrical system, a newer (2024) water heater, and exterior lighting around the 21/2 car garage for improved function and arrival experience. The result is a home that feels both established and current--one that has evolved thoughtfully while preserving the views, craftsmanship, and architectural character that made it special from the beginning. Here privacy, comfort, and setting come together in a way that reflects the enduring appeal of life in the forested hills of Prescott, just minutes from downtown amenities. This is one of the better locations to access Prescott forested trails, hundreds of miles of hiking, biking, and equestrian trails, await.
