5⭐️ 20 acre N Scottsdale retreat close to best events, golf & shopping - private

Born and raised in southwest Minnesota, I now call Omaha, Nebraska home — though Arizona holds a special place in my heart. What started as visits to see our oldest son at ASU turned into a full-blown love affair with the desert, eventually leading me to own property there.

With over 20 years in real estate, I own a real estate group and home staging company in Omaha, where I bring a designer’s eye and a strategist’s instinct to every property I touch.

Outside of work, I’m happiest surrounded by good friends, great laughter, and family. I have a genuine passion for design, love to travel, and I’m the person you’ll find front-row at a concert — in the pit, every time.

At my core, I’m still a Midwest girl: raised on honesty, hard work, and kindness — values I carry into everything I do, in business and in life.

You will find that my Desert Canyon Ranch stands out from other area Properties. Designer furnishings. Attention to detail. Exceptionally clean. Comfortable and cozy. Inviting. Tranquil. Very private.

Something North Scottsdale just felt like home to every guest: wide open spaces, generous lot sizes, and views that will stop you in your tracks.
Desert Canyon Ranch sits on a stunning 20-acre parcel, cradled in the horseshoe of the McDowell Mountain Preserve. Here, the sunrises and sunsets feel like a daily gift, the stars are peaceful company at night, and the views stretch for miles in every direction. The home itself is designed in a timeless, organic modern style — a place that doesn’t just look at nature, but lives in it.

It’s a rare kind of privacy that can’t be recreated. Desert Canyon Ranch sits on a private 20-acre parcel, cradled in the horseshoe of the McDowell Mountain Preserve — and yes, we own the mountain behind the home.
The home itself is a sprawling, quiet ranch, designed in a timeless, organic modern style that doesn’t just look at nature, but lives in it. Outside, an oversized custom heated pool and spa anchor the grounds, a REAL GRASS LAWN for your dog, enclosed by a concrete barrier wall that wraps the property in both security and seclusion. Bring your horse trailers! Incredible parking on the property.
