Property Description
Tucked away in one of Tucson's most coveted areas, this beautifully improved and thoughtfully expanded home is a rare find. Nestled in the serene Tanque Verde Valley at the foot of Mt. Lemmon, this expansive residence offers over 4,500 square feet of character-rich living space on nearly ¾ of an acre.
Since its purchase in 2001, the home has been completely transformed; every corner reimagined to enhance comfort, function, and style. The result is a unique blend of Southwest charm and modern convenience, ideal for both quiet living and vibrant entertaining.
Inside, you'll discover spacious living areas, custom finishes, and a stunning indoor gym and recreation room that's as versatile as it is impressive. Whether you're hosting a gathering, working out, or simply relaxing with family, this home adapts beautifully to your lifestyle.
Step outside to enjoy one of the home's true highlights: an expansive screened-in patio that feels like an extension of the living space, perfect for relaxing, dining, or enjoying the outdoors year-round. The large, private yard offers plenty of room to roam, garden, or even add a pool.
Surrounded by natural beauty and offering easy access to trails, schools, and the best of Northeast Tucson, this property is more than a home, it's a retreat. Unique, inviting, and full of surprises, this is one you won't want to miss.
