4619 E Fairmount St, Tucson, AZ 85712

A Gardener's Paradise...this home was ecologically remodeled to conserve energy and harvest rain water, lowering utility bills while growing an oasis! The best of both worlds, healthy & comfortable Sonoran Desert dwelling in midtown Tucson! Water harvested from rainwater, laundry gray-water and storm-water yields thousands of gallons per year to irrigate a shady canopy of trees, keeping the dwelling cool in the summer - while producing oranges, grapes, pomegranates, figs and more! A gated easement abuts the backyard, secure and private. Dual-pane windows are installed in the master bedroom, oriented with passive solar heating and cooling in mind. Heavy block construction (thermal mass) and extra roof insulation keep the home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. The home is newly tiled throughout, including the bath, and the kitchen was recently updated with a quartz counter top and new sink. Filtered water (Reverse Osmosis) is provided with a separate faucet at the sink. The house is equipped with an efficient evaporative cooler and gas furnace. Additional "zone-cooling" is provided with wall-mounted A/C units, as well as ceiling fans for improved ventilation. Large native trees in the front yard provide shade for the winter garden below, while the back yard is ideal for summer gardening. Neighborhood's Pinecrest Park is just a few minutes walk away and its equipment was recently remodeled. Lots of grass, pines and new playground equipment for children, dog-walkers and picnics. This is the ideal home for a family that appreciates conserving water and energy, gardens and composts their kitchen scraps, enjoys bird watching, saves the bees, climbs the trees and is excited to live in harmony with nature!
