Mountains Edge was planned around the idea that a neighborhood should still feel like the desert it was built on, and this single-story residence sits at the quiet end of a cul-de-sac inside its gates. Ten-foot ceilings and crown molding carry through more than 3,200 square feet, and plantation shutters temper the light as it crosses the day. The kitchen is the working center of the home, appointed with granite counters and a full granite backsplash, custom cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and an island wide enough to gather around.
