11550 N October Road, Prescott, AZ 86305 (MLS# 1082526)

Perched on 40 private acres north of Prescott, this extraordinary hand-built adobe estate is one of Arizona's most singular properties. Views extend in every direction -- mountain ranges, open valleys, and the sweeping Prescott basin. Inside, massive hand-hewn vigas and latilla ceilings set the tone throughout. Thick adobe walls frame corner kiva fireplaces in the living spaces and bedrooms alike. The primary suite offers its own kiva fireplace, a grand walk-in closet, a great kitchen with soapstone counters, a 45' Cafe gas range, wide mountain views, and private outdoor access. Each space carries distinct character -- panoramic views, flagstone floors, and adobe benches in the kiva.. A library-lined office loft with bold red walls and floor-to-ceiling bookshelves completes the picture. A detached guest house with covered deck sits just below the main residence, offering privacy and independence while remaining connected to the property's sweeping views. Adjacent to the guest house, there is a studio apartment with a living room, fireplace, bathroom and small kitchen. The former barn has since been converted to office space and the room repurposed for storage, but the infrastructure is in place for a buyer looking to build out a working equestrian facility. This is not a home that was decorated -- it was lived in, deeply and authentically. Properties like this are not built anymore. They are simply passed on.
