VIEW LOT - Very special .81-acre elevated view lot with a full Unobstructed backyard view of Camelback Mtn & the Praying Monk plus Piestewa Peak & South Mtn. No utility lines or poles and elevated high above the surrounding rooftops. The Camelback Mountain view photos here were taken from existing finished grade in the backyard. The buildable pad may be expanded. The lot is on the Phoenix/Paradise Valley border (Phx side/Phx taxes). 40th St is residential only in this location. Very quiet & private. This is the Hopi/Arcadia school district and only .34 miles from Phoenix Country Day School. Homes must be single story and under 20-feet in height. The existing home has interior demo, adds no value, and is sold in as-is condition.
Appraisers use $955,000 for comp value because Realtor/Buyer subtracted commission off sale price and bought as-is. Meticulously maintained Santa Barbara style home. The .81 acre lot is elevated above neighboring homes in the quiet Phx subdivision of Short Hills (bordering PV) creating the unparalleled combination of complete privacy and unbelievable views. Spanish inspired decor offers clean white walls, wood accents, 4 fireplaces and private open spaces. Grand vaulted Living Rm, Formal Dining Rm, Bright Open Family Rm and spacious Kitchen are ready for entertaining and compliment the multi-level Patios, Built-in BBQ, Pebbletech pool, outdoor fireplace, low maint landscaping and most of all, the views. Don't forget the oversized Bdrms and master w/remodeled bath. A one-of-a-kind opportuni

Single-Family Residence District
A basic purpose of these regulations is to foster the creation of living areas which can assist the establishment of stable, functional neighborhoods. An established pattern of living in this metropolitan area reflects a tradition of single-family occupied dwellings which also emphasize outdoor living. Many of these dwellings are thereby located on relatively large urban or suburban lots.; These regulations provide standards for dwellings built at low and moderate densities. While the predominant housing type is expected to be single-family dwelling, provisions are made for alternative housing types within the same density limits.
