Tallest home a hard sell in Prescott

Falcon Nest, North America's tallest single-family home in Prescott.

The unique structure first went up for sale about two years ago for $2.8 million. It has now been listed with a different real estate firm and the price tag has dropped to $1.5 million.

...the irony is that the property is listed with Sotheby's Realty.

So, even if I could afford it, they wouldn't get my business, since I know about their questionable "business practices!"

warm and comfortable as a fire tower. Too many visible architectural elements and compromises.
