A 2.5 acre residential compound in Paradise Valley, Arizona, has been listed for sale at 55 million dollars. Realtor.com and the Wall Street Journal both reported the asking price for the property. If sold at this list price, the sale will surpass the current Arizona state home sale record of 40.2 million dollars. [1][2]

An investment group represented by private client and estate planning attorney Darren Case is selling the estate, according to Realtor.com. Property records show the group bought the parcel in early 2025 for 33.5 million dollars. [1]

The compound was built in 2024 and features a four bedroom main residence, a two bedroom guesthouse, and an artificial intelligence surveillance system to detect intruders, Realtor.com reported. The grounds also include a recreational shed containing a sports court, a golf simulator, and an underground bunker equipped with a shooting range. [1]

Bunkers are defensive underground fortifications designed to protect occupants and valuables from attacks or natural disasters such as tornadoes. [4]
