1931 Paradise Valley Adobe Restoration/Renovation
The residence is bathed in the emerging sunlight of an spring Arizona morning; a mix of existing and new date palm trees, Saguaros, Indian Fig, and other cacti stand guard in front of the main house. The front courtyard is surrounded by 8 foot tall stucco walls, pierced by an arch wrought iron gate fabricated solely with steel bar stock, to give the impression of quality and age. The handmade clay roof tiles of the main house are seen beyond, as are the second floor sleeping deck and wood framed balcony of second floor guest rooms. A decomposed granite driveway, and artfully placed boulders, complete the exterior impression of the home.
