Description

The racing sensation Giacomo captured the 2005 Kentucky Derby at 50-1 odds. At 81115 Giacomo Way, a winning pedigree takes a different form: an original Griffin Ranch model home w/ distinctive interiors, substantial owner improvements & an extraordinary backyard retreat. This approx. 3,152-square-foot residence offers 3 BDs, 3.5 BAs & a separate den/office. Travertine tile & wood-inlaid flooring & custom wall treatments reflect its model home origins. An open kitchen/great room, formal dining room, island kitchen, walk-in pantry & breakfast nook create inviting spaces for living & entertaining. Three en-suite BDs offer privacy, plus a guest powder room. South-facing outdoor leisure features spectacular mountain views & a 50-foot Pebble Tec saltwater pool w/ 4 waterfalls, 4 fire bowls, 3 arching water jets & a separate fire pit. Approx. 50 mature palms, including date and Canary palms, new front landscaping, new landscape lighting that transforms the grounds after sunset & a commercial misting system enhance generous dining, gathering & relaxation areas. An expansive granite entertaining island features 2 sinks, ice wells & Lynx stainless steel appliances, including a grill, side burner, warming drawer, ice maker, refrigerator & ample storage. A pizza oven, outdoor fireplace, brand-new sauna, fountain beneath the canopied leisure area & outdoor shower complete the backyard retreat. The upgraded 2-car + golf cart garage includes epoxy flooring, overhead metal storage, workbench, new garage doors, EV charger plug & water softener. Owner investments include a fully paid-for, efficient 47-panel solar system producing approx. 17,000 kWh annually. The current owner uses approx. 18,000 kWh annually, with reported electricity costs of about $400/year based on their usage. Additional improvements include approx. $40,000 in air-conditioning upgrades completed less than 2 years ago & extensive electrical upgrades throughout. Carefully maintained & thoughtfully enhanced, this former model combines distinctive character w/ exceptional outdoor living. Griffin Ranch offers one of the desert's best HOA amenity packages: stunning clubhouse, state-of-the-art fitness center, resort-style pool/spa, tennis & pickleball courts, bocce ball, walking trails, social gathering areas, dog park & vibrant community atmosphere. A one-of-a-kind champion, 81115 Giacomo Way is ready for its next winning chapter.
