Welcome to your private desert retreat in the heart of the Tucson Mountains; the kind of property buyers wait for yet rarely find. This home captures unobstructed views of the Catalina Mountains while delivering the perfect blend of comfort, style and peace of mind. With 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, the split layout is both functional and inviting. Wood-grain italian porcelain tile floors flow seamlessly throughout the main living areas, offering warmth and durability to satisfy today's lifestyle demands. The updated kitchen is thoughtfully designed with modern finishes and easy flow into the living and dining areas, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Step outside, through the hanging vines in the covered patio, to the sprawling brick patio with pool and spa, to discover your own oasis. Whether you are hosting sunset gatherings or enjoying a quiet morning swim, this space is designed to embrace the Arizona lifestyle year round. Lush desert vegetation surrounds the property, providing beauty, privacy and habitat for bird watching. Major updates provide confidence and value, including a new roof, newer HVAC unit, new pool filter and newer "mini pebble" pool and spa liners. This is more than a home. It is a serene desert sanctuary with breathtaking Catalina views, modern upgrades, and a backyard built for memories.
