4647 E Palais Place, a slightly over 7K square foot- recently renovated 16 year old Mediterranean, sold for $1,960,000 by Andy Courtney Properties.

This gorgeous home  with 25 foot ceilings had two things going against it–it has no pool and is a 3 story home (with elevator). Most folks, of course, want a one-story home with a pool (especially in this price-range).

However, desirable features include that this home is located in The Summit which is a small gated community located at the top of the Catalina Foothills with panoramic views. Amazingly, this one sits on a large homesite of over 4 acres. Had this been a one-story home with a pool and  that it is masonry- built (as this one is), it would have sold for well over 2 million.

If you are thinking of selling your Catalina Foothills home or want to explore the great opportunities to live in this Sonoran Desert wonderland, give me a call at 520-615-2598 or email me at Donna@DonnaAnderson.com!
