About this home
Birdsong, coyote chorales, and evening trill of frogs carry through any given day--an ever-present reminder of the immersive desert respite found here. Backyard poolside views of the Catalinas and Thimble Peak, framed by north-facing sliders and windows from almost every room, surround you- inviting both reflection and interaction. Whether inside or out, curiosity takes over as quail families peck at windows, hummingbirds flit and hover, territorial
woodpeckers tap the vigas, or a shy bobcat observes atop a fencepost. Roadrunners peer and preen on rocks or dart across the property, much like the rabbits do while driving away from the house. Even the lizards charm you into joining their push-up challenge. This gracefully understated, 1965-built Territorial Ranch-style home has had only two owners. With 5 bedrooms, 3½ baths, and 3,278 sq. ft., the home offers generous spaces and an easy,
natural flow. From the west-end primary bedroom suite, a couple of steps lead to the shared living spaces--the living room, powder room, kitchen, and dining room. A few more steps lead
to the family room and an additional bedroom area that can also serve as office space. Thoughtful architecture accommodates the property's modest slope, with a few additional steps
leading to three comfortably sized bedrooms and two more bathrooms. Well-loved and well-maintained, this classic Spanish Territorial-influenced home features white stucco accented by terra-cotta-red arched windows, sills, and vigas, along with red brick-paved stairs and patio areas. It offers an exceptional opportunity to integrate your own vision and story
while honoring the home's original character. Terra-cotta brick gas fireplaces grace the corners of the primary bedroom, living room, and family room. This is the first home in this distinctive area to become available in more than 30 years.
The 3.33-acre property, together with seven neighboring ranchette properties of similar size, creates a uniquely private and calming natural setting, remarkably close to Sabino Canyon and
River roads. It feels seemingly remote as you leave the pavement and enter by way of a short, well-maintained dirt road. Here, solid neighbors offer support and respect while maintaining a
quintessential sense of Western independence--plenty of space and privacy, yet always ready to lend a hand, share a tool, or bring over macaroons. Cooperative agreements provide for shared
maintenance of the private road easements, along with a four-way well-share with a 1,000-gallon
storage tank.
The home features two septic tanks, a newer roof (2020), HVAC system (2024), a whole-house salt-water softening system, a kitchen under-cabinet reverse osmosis water purifier (2026) serves the refrigerator line, along with a dedicated kitchen sink spigot, A newer high- efficiency two-stage pool pump (2021) and DE filter help keep the pool healthy and sparkling.
The robust desert environment includes more than 20 sentinel saguaros--including a couple of truly unique specimens--along with barrel cacti, mature agave, aloe vera, red yucca, ocotillo,
mesquite, and Palo Verde trees. Several fruit trees along the east side of the home, including orange, lemon, and fig, provide a tasty abundance of fresh produce.
A private atrium off the primary bedroom suite integrates beautifully with a glass shower wall, planters, and a Pygmy date palm. The backyard is an irrigated oasis, featuring a modest grass
area and four tall poolside palms. Rockscape integrates the "sandstone" pool deck and planters within a fenced and gated area, helping protect cultivated flowering desert plants from foraging deer and javelina. An irrigated raised garden box provides the opportunity to grow your favorite vegetables and herbs. A firepit area and built-in benches thoughtfully placed throughout the property encourage taking a few restorative moments to simply be still and breathe deeply.
Ample parking and turnaround space are available at both the front and rear of the home. A two-car garage includes built-in storage closets and a workbench, complemented by an adjacent shaded carport structure.
The home sits elevated on an embankment, with the barn below and a Tanque Verde Wash
tributary distinguishing the property's eastern plain . The barn includes two stalls, a tack room, and two additional storage rooms, Water is available in the stalls and at an exterior spigot--an
ideal setup for those seeking an authentic Tucson horse property.
From the property, enjoy easy walking and hiking access through the wash all the way to the Sabino Canyon Recreation Area, if you're up for the adventure. Or hop in the car and make the
approximately seven-minute drive north to the Sabino Canyon Visitor Center and parking area. Or head south five minutes to Udall Park for community maintained indoor sports facilities,
ballparks, green spaces, pathways, pool & splash pad, and the beloved Laszlo Veres Amphitheater for Spring/Fall public performances under the stars....
