Fifteen-time Grammy Award-winner, Alicia Keys, and producer-husband, Swizz Beatz, have taken advantage of the booming housing market and sold their modern Camelback Mountain vacation home in Phoenix. The home – with stunning views of Echo Canyon, Piestewa Peak, Mummy Mountain and city lights – sold for $3.1 million.
The super-star couple are big fans of modern architecture, proven when they purchased the Razor House in La Jolla, California in 2019 for $20.8 million – originally priced at $45 million. The Razor House is one of the world’s best ultra-modern homes with commanding views over the Pacific Ocean and seen in Visa Black Card and Calvin Klein commercials. The common denominator in the Alicia/Swizz choice of homes is extreme modern with stunning long-range views. Though they loved their Phoenix getaway home, time restraints due to their work obligations made it almost impossible to enjoy the home the way they had intended.
Gated and located at the end of a cul-de-sac, the Phoenix house measures 7050 square feet with four bedrooms and six baths. Rooms are spacious and focus on the views. Special features include an 800-bottle wine room, a wet bar, home theater/game room, an eat-in chef’s kitchen with pantry, a six-car garage with elevator to the main living area and an infinity-edge pool and spa. The master suite also commands stunning views, is spacious enough for the grand piano seen in the home’s listing photographs, and has a huge dressing room walk-in closet along with a private terrace. The couple’s current home, Razor House, ranks near the top of any list of best contemporary homes found anywhere from Los Angeles to the Hamptons.
