Description

Remarkable and rare 1930 Joesler built by John Murphey situated on 3.45 acres in the historic Catalina Foothills Estates w/ extraordinary city, sunset & mtn views. This hilltop Estate is comprised of the main house (4534sf), the guest house (837 sf), several patios & 2 separate yard areas to enjoy both views to the north & the south. The gilded legacy of this truly special property that has only had 4 owners in 87 years includes an extensive list of amenities-PLEASE SEE DOCUMENTS TAB for details. Enter the courtyard through a 200-year-old ironwood gate & be greeted by a perfectly designed outdoor space w/ a striking pool, FP & deep covered patio w/ sweeping views of the valley below and the surrounding mtn ranges. Rustic touches throughout compliment modern amenities...continued...

Supplements: The 15" mud adobe walls lend to the charm of the viga beams, mesquite hardwood floors, banco seating & multiple fireplaces. A true indoor/outdoor lifestyle is facilitated by various patios & outdoor spaces that flow from the interior space. The original Joesler kitchen has been transformed into an expansive & open space with slab granite, breakfast bar, stainless steel luxury appliances including SubZero, Dacor and Viking, travertine backsplash, double ovens and walk-in pantry. Wet bar with 60-bottle wine cabinet is adjacent to the kitchen along with a cozy family room with fireplace and views of the city. The formal dining room is complimented by windows that frame a panoramic view of the Catalina mountains. The split bedroom floor plan incorporates a master wing of the home and a guest wing. Master wing includes gracious master bedroom with saguaro-ribbed ceiling, bee-hive gas fireplace, 2 large walk-in closets (one lined with cedar), study with custom built-in shelves, wood burning chiminea, spacious master bathroom, powder room and screened-in south-facing patio to enjoy the views of the twinkling lights of the city below. The guest wing has 2 en-suite bedrooms, separate sitting area/bonus room (perfect for kids toys or study area) and access to the north patio/outdoor space. Once you enter the north facing walled-in outdoor space you will be struck by the incredible mountain views and delighted with the BBQ area and fountain. Follow the path to the east side of the property to find the 800 sf guest house with kitchenette, 2 bathrooms, bedroom and living room that could be converted back to an additional bedroom in the guest house. A lovely south-facing patio off the guest house provides beautiful city and sunset views. Incredibly convenient central foothills location minutes to Tucson's finest restaurants, shopping and world class golf resorts. Easily get to the University of Arizona and downtown. This remarkable and rare gem of a property was commissioned by a University of Arizona professor and is one of approximately 200 residential properties designed by the famous architect Josias Joesler and built by John Murphey-see documents tab for details and historical information about both men. Property is eligible for National Register of Historic Places.
