When you enter this inviting Country Club home, nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, you will not be able to resist singing the old standard, "Let Me Entertain You." This house is a host or hostesses dream!

The first thing that a visitor will notice is the mature landscaping and the immaculately manicured lawn. A stone-faced full courtyard entry welcomes visitors with doorways leading to the main house or a casita with a full bathroom.

Upon entry into the house, the visitor is greeted by inlaid stone tile with an offset, bricklayed design. One can't help but notice the full bay windows and roaring fire in the fireplace as they enter the living room. Most of the windows are adorned with plantation shutters, and the house itself benefited from the expert touch of an interior designer. Warm, two-tone painted walls, window coverings, and light fixtures were all professionally coordinated.

The kitchen is a cook's dream: a breakfast bar, island, and ample countertops are all neutral granite slab with conservatively chiseled edges. All appliances, including the five-burner gas stove, microwave, dishwasher, and convection oven are stainless steel. Subtle details like the upgraded drop in sink and raised panel maple cabinets will help offer a pampered feeling to the home's next owner.

As one stands in the kitchen, the backyard seems to beckon through the large bay window. The backyard is breathtaking, offering an extended patio area and multiple sitting areas surrounding the large, heated play pool with a six-foot sheer descent fall, and a nine-foot spa with raised decks. Overlooking the pool is the focal point of the entire backyard; a magnificent stack-stone gas/wood-burning fireplace perched high above the pool, and overlooking the entire lush, mature landscaping of the backyard. Finishing touches on this entertainer's paradise include fans and speakers wired for stereo, all controlled by an indoor master panel. The backyard has a gas stub for those who may want to create an outdoor grilling area (see Grilling article in this issue.) The backyard is truly an oasis, and inspires thoughts of hosting backyard garden pool parties . Arizona living at its finest!

The house itself is a split floor plan, perfect for those who want to be close with family, but not necessarily within earshot. The spacious master bedroom has thick padded, upgraded carpeting and a "quick escape door" leading to the paradise just outside. It also has its own full bathroom with an extended vanity, a tub with separate standing shower and a spacious walk-in closet.

There are three additional, generously sized bedrooms and the house has a total of three and a half bathrooms. There is also a true den with French door access. Artful niches are spread liberally throughout the home, to add drama and flair.

Value added items include a full-size laundry room with cabinet space and a sink, as well as a two-car garage with an epoxy-covered floor.

It is uncommon to see the "Laguna" model itself, because there was no show model built when the plan was being sold. The demand is higher than the actual supply with the Laguna!

The downside of this house: there is no included party budget to fund all of the cocktail and garden parties you will surely plan once you take ownership!
