Estate Overview: Rare opportunity to own a private gated estate on nearly two irrigated acres in a highly desirable County Island setting just minutes from the energy, dining, and entertainment of Downtown Gilbert. Properties offering this combination of irrigated land, privacy, mature orchards, and convenient access to the town's vibrant amenities are increasingly difficult to find. The residence is thoughtfully positioned near the center of the parcel, allowing expansive grounds to unfold in every direction and creating the sense of a private estate compound surrounded by gardens, trees, and open land. Arrival & Grounds: Entry begins through a secure gated compound featuring three vehicle gates, including a primary automated entrance that opens to a sweeping circular driveway and expansive motor court designed for ease of access and impressive arrival. Mature landscaping and shade trees frame the approach while the surrounding acreage provides separation from neighboring properties. Private road access enhances privacy and convenience. A private gate leads directly to the adjacent canal and trail system, offering opportunities for walking, cycling, and outdoor recreation. An elevated observation deck provides views of the surrounding landscape and nearby regional park lake while capturing sunsets and community events in the distance. The expansive irrigated acreage offers exceptional flexibility for outdoor living and land use. Livestock and horses are permitted on the property, creating opportunities for equestrian use or hobby farming. The grounds provide ample space for horse stalls, barn structures, or animal enclosures, while still maintaining generous room for gardens, orchard areas, and outdoor entertaining spaces. Residence: The estate features a spacious single-level custom residence with over 4,100 square feet designed for comfortable living and entertaining. The floor plan includes five bedrooms plus a dedicated office with private exterior entrance, ideal for a home office, studio, or meeting space. The home offers six bathrooms, including a convenient exterior-access pool bath designed for guests enjoying the outdoor amenities. Architectural details throughout include three fireplaces, real wood flooring, crown molding, oversized baseboards, and extensive custom cabinetry and built-in storage. The split floor plan allows the primary suite to remain private while secondary bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests. Primary Suite: The primary retreat offers generous space and a spa-inspired bathroom highlighted by an extraordinary walk-in shower and large Jacuzzi soaking tub, creating a relaxing environment designed for comfort and rejuvenation. Secondary Bedrooms: Each additional bedroom features its own private bathroom and walk-in closet, creating privacy and flexibility for family members, guests, or extended household living. Kitchen & Gathering Areas: The kitchen and gathering spaces are designed for connection and entertaining, featuring granite countertops, generous preparation areas, and open living spaces that flow naturally into the surrounding entertaining areas. Outdoor Living & Entertaining: Outdoor living is a defining feature of the property. The backyard centers around a resort-style pool with water features and a swim-up bar with integrated seating, creating an environment designed for relaxation and entertaining. The pool area, with two expansive gazebos provide shaded gathering spaces for outdoor dining, entertaining, and lounging. Covered patio areas extend the living space outdoors, and the exterior-access pool bath allows guests to use restroom facilities without entering the home. Orchard, Gardens & Irrigation: One of the most unique aspects of the property is the productive orchard and garden environment supported by a flood irrigation system that sustains the nearly two-acre landscape. Raised garden beds with automated irrigation allow for cultivation of vegetables, herbs, and ornamental plantings. Mature grapevines contribute to the productive landscape and enhance the estate garden atmosphere. Exquisite Citrus Grove (approximately 20 mature trees): Key lime, Eureka lemon, navel orange, Ruby Red grapefruit, tangelo, blood orange, mandarin, white pomelo. Luscious Stone Fruit & Specialty Trees: Peach, apricot, fig, pear, plum, vineyard-quality grapevines. Ornamental Landscape Trees: Magnificent magnolia trees and mature ash shade trees provide canopy and shade throughout the grounds, contributing to the park-like environment and creating inviting outdoor spaces across the estate. Garage & Parking: The property includes an oversized four-car garage along with a large motor court and expansive driveway areas. These spaces allow parking capacity for approximately 50+ vehicles, making the estate ideal for gatherings, entertaining, events, or accommodating vehicle collections. Mechanical Systems & Infrastructure: The property benefits from a newly installed 2025 high-efficiency variable-speed inverter HVAC system designed for superior comfort and energy efficiency. Additional infrastructure features include dual washer and dryer hookups in the dedicated laundry room, a Rheem Marathon non-metallic water heater known for durability and efficiency, low-voltage landscape lighting enhancing the property's evening ambiance, and a comprehensive property-wide video and audio security system providing peace of mind. Estate Expansion Potential: Because the home is positioned toward the center of the parcel, the property retains significant surrounding open land that offers exceptional flexibility for future enhancements. The nearly two-acre parcel provides room for guest house or casita construction, multi-generational living structures, detached garage or workshop space, sport court or recreational amenities, horse facilities, barns, expanded gardens, or development of a larger compound-style estate environment. Lifestyle Opportunity: Combining irrigated acreage, a private gated setting, mature orchard plantings, equestrian and livestock allowances, resort-style outdoor living, and proximity to the vibrant dining and entertainment scene of Downtown Gilbert, this estate offers a lifestyle rarely available within the East Valley. It presents a unique opportunity to enjoy the privacy, space, and character of an acreage property while remaining close to the conveniences of one of the region's most sought-after communities.
