The former site of Theodore DeGrazia's art studio at the base of Superstition Mountains has been listed for $1,799,999 by Sheri Hicks and Joseph Hicks, agents affiliated with the Mesa-Gilbert office of Coldwell Banker Realty. Located at 6275 E Jacob Waltz St. in Apache Junction, Ariz., the property has approximately 3,480 square feet of living space on nearly 1.25 acres.
“Offering breathtaking 360-degree views on the former site of Theodore DeGrazia's art studio, this home is a piece of art in the desert with quality craftsmanship and custom details,” said Sheri Hicks. “A bridge built for Theodore DeGrazia's original estate, connecting the studio to his gallery, and some of his original fencing still adorns the front of the property.”
Custom Bella Grande iron doors open to the main living space. Bringing the outdoors inside, the living room showcases a wall of windows framing the views of the stunning Superstition Mountains. The gourmet kitchen features custom-milled solid Alder wood cabinets, Viking stainless appliances, Black Galaxy granite countertops, oversized kitchen island with seating for six, custom wine rack and a large walk-in pantry.
The spacious first-floor primary suite has an ensuite bathroom with a tub/shower encased in beautiful Desert Sunrise granite. On the second floor, there is a spacious loft, balcony and a second primary suite with views of both the Superstition Mountains and city lights. An additional second-floor primary suite has a large walk-in closet, sitting room, private balcony, two-way fireplace and bathroom with two vanities, a large jacuzzi tub and custom walk-in shower with Mongolian Spring tumbled slate stone on the walls and floors. A generously sized, temperature-controlled detached three-car garage has a Tesla charging station, full kitchen with cabinets and counters from the former DeGrazia Art Studio, full bathroom, walk-in closet and laundry.
In addition to being equipped with a full house fire suppression sprinkler system, the home has a fully wired home security system and an underground air return that helps cool the built-in wine rack. Other highlights include a central vacuum system, sound system with a subwoofer in the loft wall and Klipsch high-end speakers in every room, water softening system and reverse osmosis. A 250-gallon buried propane tank serves the fireplaces, pool, spa and cooktops. South of the main home is a smaller storage building that is temperature controlled with both heating and cooling.
