Set within the coveted Cactus Corridor of Scottsdale, 10010 E Jenan Drive is a striking architectural statement—where modern design, precision craftsmanship, and the natural beauty of the desert converge in a home that feels both intentional and enduring.
From the moment you arrive, the residence reveals a sense of quiet distinction. Positioned on over an acre with a generous setback, the home offers a rare blend of privacy and openness, framed by expansive views of the McDowell Mountains and the surrounding desert landscape. The approach is understated yet purposeful, guiding you toward a home that feels as much like a work of architecture as it does a place to live.
Designed by architect Amit Upadhye and featured in leading design publications including Dwell and Phoenix Home & Garden, the home reflects a disciplined approach to form and scale—where every line, material, and proportion has been carefully considered.
Inside, the residence unfolds with a sense of light and clarity. Commercial-grade floor-to-ceiling glass invites the outdoors in, dissolving the boundary between interior and landscape while filling the home with natural light. The materials—poured-in-place concrete, block construction, wood, and stone—create a layered aesthetic that is both modern and grounded, delivering spaces that feel bold yet remarkably livable.
The living areas flow effortlessly, anchored by a design that balances openness with intention. At the heart of the home, the kitchen serves as both a functional centerpiece and a place of connection, seamlessly integrated into the surrounding spaces to support everything from quiet mornings to elevated entertaining.
With over 6,000 square feet, the home offers a thoughtful layout designed for both privacy and flexibility. The main residence features multiple bedrooms, a dedicated office, and a fitness or flex space, while a fully self-contained guest house—with its own kitchen, living area, and garage—provides an added level of independence for extended stays or multigenerational living.
Outdoors, the experience continues with a setting designed for both relaxation and recreation. A resort-style pool, expansive lawn, and ramada with fire feature create a backyard that feels both refined and versatile—offering space for entertaining, play, or quiet retreat under the Arizona sky.
Built in 2009 and set on 1.16 acres, the home represents a rare opportunity to own a published architectural residence within one of Scottsdale’s most desirable corridors—where design, scale, and setting come together in a way that feels both timeless and forward-thinking.
10010 E Jenan Drive is more than a home—it is a composition of form, light, and landscape, offering a lifestyle defined by modern design, privacy, and a deep connection to the desert that surrounds it.
