Property Description
ONE-OF-A-KIND SOUTHWESTERN CONTEMPORARY ESTATE IN THE CATALINA FOOTHILLS! Set behind private gates on 1.49 acres of southwestern desert, saguaros, cacti, mesquite and palo verde trees, with stunning Catalina Mountain views, this extraordinary property offers privacy, architectural distinction, and an exceptional connection to the Sonoran Desert. Custom designed and built by acclaimed local architect/designer Al Gastelum of Centerline Design & Interiors, the approximately 4,534 sq ft main residence showcases impeccable craftsmanship, ICF concrete construction, solid 8' knotty Alder doors, travertine and scored concrete floors, Venetian plaster, cantera and slate stone, and custom ironwork throughout. The dramatic rotunda entry opens to elegant living and dining spaces, while expansive windows capture the mountain views. The gourmet kitchen features a Viking 6-burner range, rising exhaust, granite island and counters, custom Alder cabinetry, double ovens, Asko dishwasher, newer GE refrigerator, and large walk-in pantry. The luxurious primary suite features Catalina Mountain views, beehive fireplace, French doors to the deep rear porch, and spa-like bath. Two additional bedrooms share a beautifully designed Jack-and-Jill bath, while a private fourth bedroom/office offers flexibility. Outdoor living is exceptional, with deep covered and flagstone porches, beehive fireplace, grilling area, lush landscaping, custom iron fencing, and a private pool with waterfall feature. A separate 770 sq ft guest house/casita offers a fireplace, kitchenette, full bath, custom Murphy bed, private gated yard, and porch. The oversized 963 sq ft three-car garage provides abundant storage. Recent improvements include exterior paint and roof coating (2024), new exterior lighting and cameras, updated irrigation, new turf, and HVAC systems and water heaters (2019). Ideally located near Swan/Sunrise, shopping, dining, Sabino Canyon, Ventana Canyon, trails, parks, and schools, yet offering a remarkably private and peaceful setting. A truly exceptional Tucson estate--beautifully crafted, deeply private, and designed to become a family legacy.
