Property Description

Privately set on an elevated half-acre lot in a quiet cul-de-sac within desirable Alta Vista Estates, this pristine masonry-built custom residence offers exceptional mountain and city views. Ideally located in the foothills just minutes from Ventana Canyon Country Club. Recent updates include a brand-new tile roof (2025) and a replaced HVAC system. Elegant, timeless, and meticulously maintained, the single-level design with no interior steps is ideal for effortless lock-and-leave living. High ceilings, north/south exposure, and abundant windows and skylights create a light-filled interior. Warm Saltillo tile floors—recently cleaned & resealed—anchor the living spaces, while the inviting living room features a fireplace & expansive windows capturing unobstructed mountain views. Cont'd... The formal dining room is ideal for both large-scale entertaining & intimate dinner parties. Plantation shutters throughout the home elevate the design, providing both form & function. The split-bedroom layout includes two spacious master suites, each with dual-sink vanities, patio access, & oversized walk-in closets. One master suite has a soaking tub with exceptional mountain views. A third bedroom and bath, ideal for guests, an office, or flex space, offers city views. A generously sized laundry room with extensive cabinetry and a utility sink provides extra storage.

Outdoors, the beautifully landscaped backyard is serene and low maintenance, featuring mature vegetation, fruit trees, a deep covered ceramic-tile patio, a built-in BBQ, and a private gate that leads to walking trails. Backing to an HOA common-area greenbelt, the property enjoys exceptional privacy and a peaceful buffer. Watch the sunrise over the Catalina Mountains with a direct view of the saguaro-studded mountains & Ventana Canyon in the morning, then watch it descend over the Tucson Mountains as it lights the western sky with sensational colors. No pool means minimal upkeep and true ease of ownership.
