Interested in embracing the Mid-Century vibe, but unsure if you're ready to commit to a jet-set lifestyle?

Problem solved!

We located a fabulous Mid-Century home available for rent in Paradise Valley, AZ. Known as the Healy/Fearnow Residence, this prestigious pad comes with a well-known architectural pedigree and rents for $4,000 a month.

Designed by Alfred Beadle in 1959, this home offers a little over 2,000 square feet of living space on an acre of desert land. The fully-furnished home comes with three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a couple of enclosed patio areas.

One of the cooler features is a Mid-Century take on the porte-cochère, which allows a resident to drive right up to their front door.

Listing agent Scott Jarson described the drive up to the home and how the house is initially obscured from view as you make your way up the curvilinear driveway.

All of a sudden, you round a corner and the home appears nestled proudly among the cacti and desert scrub.

At first glance, the home may seem detached from civilization, but Jarson said a renter would only be minutes away from all the upscale shopping and dining Paradise Valley has to offer.

"I see someone who rents this place as being more urban than remote," he said. "But it will be someone who sees the value in serenity and calm. It will also be someone who appreciates architecture and design."

"The first thing that strikes you when you walk through the door is an amazing sense of calm," Jarson added. "You feel the interaction between the home and nature. It's a pristine natural desert experience."

In addition to that tranquility, a potential renter will also benefit from the well-appointed interior design. This home comes fully furnished with appropriate period furniture as well as modern appliances and is ready for occupancy.

Jarson likened the home to a penthouse when he observed this little truth: "A renter will feel like a high-rise dweller on the desert floor."

As for the man behind the home, Beadle's rep is well established thanks to his design of Case Study Apartment #1 and other Mid-Century gems throughout the Southwest.

Jarson called him "Arizona's modernist" and mentioned the many custom residences he designed throughout the state.

Unfortunately, some of Beadle's work has been demolished over the past few decades, lending even more cachet to this particular rental.
