A NOTE FROM THE OWNERS:
"Sunshine on Mulberry is more than a typical Scottsdale home; we believe it is a whole lifestyle! Our home focuses on sustainability. You will find one-of-a-kind vintage furniture and decor pieces throughout the home, sustainable products like reusable cloth napkins and straws, yoga mat and light free weights, energy efficient appliances, smart devices, and an EV plug to charge your Electric Vehicle! Did you notice we love color? Yellow is considered the strongest color psychologically because it makes people feel more energetic, cheerful and positive. We are here for all the positive vibes and this is why we continued the yellow accents throughout the home! Although we're based in Chicago now, we loved this home as our primary home for 6 years, and now we enjoy vacationing here to escape the chilly Chicago winters! And what is a vacation without your furry family members? We do allow up to 2 small dogs, under 30lbs, with an additional pet fee. (See details below for more info.) So no matter where you're traveling from, if you appreciate unique spaces with bold character and good vibes, then this is absolutely the place for you! We've enlisted the best local team to ensure you have a great stay, and can't wait to welcome you into our home! - T & J”

The bright yellow wall drenches the room with sunshine, and features a custom gallery wall of local photography and landscapes.

Separated from the action of the living spaces, tucked away on the north side of the house, there are 3 bedrooms and a dedicated office. The Primary Bedroom features a comfortable king-sized bed, an updated ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower, two closets with plenty of hangers, original vintage 1960’s makeup vanity, and a sliding door for convenient access to the backyard paradise.

Fully fenced backyard is perfect for your small pups to run and explore! (See pet restrictions below.) Gather your group and take 'Gram-worthy selfies in front of the custom desert WALL MURAL done by a well-known local artist.
