FALCON NEST - TALLEST HOUSE IN NORTH AMERICA


Falcon Nest is a detached residence in Prescott, Arizona that is the tallest single family home in North America at 124 feet. Its name is attributed to its resemblance to a large mountainside bird's nest and the peregrine falcons that inhabit the area It is located in Yavapai County, a two-hour drive northwest of Phoenix.

The home was designed by Phoenix architect Sukumar Pal. It was built in 1994 at a cost of approximately $3.5 million. The house is 6,200 square feet in size and is spread out vertically over 10 stories.

The house was listed for sale in 2015 for $2.8 million, and again in 2017 for $1.5 million. After a failed attempt to sell the house by auction in May 2017, it was relisted for $2.8 million. It sold on March 28, 2018 for $755,000.


Editor’s Note: The tallest house in the world is Antilia in South Mumbai, India (see blog post dated 11/25/2018).
