Highlights
- The 'Merry Christmas' house atop Camelback Mountain is for sale, with 24 acres of mountain property included.
- The $24 million listing is expected to attract a buyer who will demolish the existing structure, per Arizona's Family reporting.
- Agent Jonah Joffe is representing the property; the listing has been confirmed by the Phoenix Business Journal and KTAR.
- Arizona's Family's 'On Your Side: The Home Edition' featured the property in its Friday, Sept. 5 episode.
The Camelback Mountain home known for its roadside 'Merry Christmas' sign is on the market, and whoever writes the check will almost certainly tear it down. The property, listed at $24 million according to the Phoenix Business Journal and KTAR, includes 24 acres of Camelback Mountain land, the land being the asset, not the structure.
Arizona's Family host Susan Campbell toured the home with agent Jonah Joffe for this week's episode of 'On Your Side: The Home Edition,' which airs Fridays at 7 p.m. on Arizona's Family streaming sites and is available on-demand.
The listing has drawn attention well beyond the local real estate community. Forbes Global Properties and Arizona Foothills Magazine have both covered the property, underscoring the scale of interest in one of the Phoenix area's most recognizable private parcels.
The same episode of 'The Home Edition' also features agent Cynthia McNicol showing what $500,000 buys in Chandler, and an interview with Lance Billingsley, author of 'The 13%,' on why 87 percent of real estate agents exit the business.
The listing's next move depends on who bids, and at $24 million for a teardown site, the buyer pool is narrow.
