Description
A stunning, classic 1936 adobe home in the old Catalina Foothills exudes the historic charm of Josiah Joesler's Santa Fe construction with modern enhancements.
The meticulous craftsmanship is exemplified by its adobe structure, 5 indoor fireplaces, rough-sawn wood beams and hand-forged metal fixtures. Situated on a Saguaro studded 8 acre hilltop, this location is indeed rare and desirable. Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the Catalina, Tucson, Santa Rita and Rincon mountains, city scape and sunsets while embedded in a rich, diverse and private Sonoran Desert landscape.
This 5868 sq ft property offers a main house with 5 bedrooms/6 baths laid out with beautifully restored concrete floors. Each bathroom is accented with authentic Mexican tiles.
Supplements: A generous 10 ft ceiling and a large window frames the stunning view of Finger Rock from the spacious living room. A charming formal dining room brightened by handcrafted sconces opens to a large, open remodeled kitchen with a walnut butcher block center island, white shaker wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and soapstone counter tops. The south facing windows of the family room overlook dramatic cityscapes as well as the Tucson and Santa Rita mountains. Attached to the main house is a separate guest apartment with a private north facing entrance and patio. A separate 2 bedroom/2 bath guest house with full kitchen features an ample living space with Saltillo tile floors throughout and a large storage room. Outdoor amenities are showcased in multiple private courtyards, open and covered ramadas, outdoor fire places, a beautiful pebble tech swimming pool/spa, solar energy, and a horse stable now used as a workshop. For those who appreciate Tucson's rich heritage, its remarkable architecture and the beauty of the Sonoran landscape, this desert gem situated on 8+ acres offers you a unique opportunity to experience a home with timeless elegance combined with modern comforts and luxury.
