The Jaw-dropping Resort-Ranch Everyone Talks About | House in Phoenix

Summary:
Built in 1918 and reimagined as a modern resort, Worth the Wait Ranch is Arizona history done differently. Set on 1.3 acres in a convenient North Phoenix location near golf, dining, and major freeways, The Manor features expansive interiors, a massive private backyard, indoor pickleball & basketball, a resort-style pool, mini golf, fire pit, billiards, and space to gather—or disappear. Designed by a nationally recognized designer and intentionally overbuilt for unforgettable stays.
The Space:

Interaction with Guests:
