Description
Skipp's Place... Iconic Sedona Artist Estate with Panoramic Red Rock Views! Named after famed Sedona artist Skipp Fox, this Don Woods-designed architectural gem captures Sedona's creative essence and showcases some of the most spectacular 360-degree elevated red rock views in town. Situated on a private road, this residence features a 4-bedroom main home plus an 1,800 sq. ft. guest house, ideal for extended family, guests, or a studio. Highlights include a gourmet chef's kitchen, indoor/outdoor dining areas, a majestic stone-faced wood-burning fireplace, media room, library with custom built-ins, office, and skylights filling the home with natural light. While the home offers exceptional architecture and an incomparable setting, it needs updating.
Supplements: Deed-restricted to 30-day minimum rentals. A rare opportunity to revitalize a Don Woods design with panoramic views worthy of Sedona's most celebrated artist.
