Stunning luxury living in Tucson's oldest barrio! Gorgeous spacious Barrio Libre home by the barrio's master builder, David Carter, for their own personal residence. Mikey block construction, looks and feels like adobe, even better insulating qualities. Finished with many historic materials (from local churches, Mt Lemmon trees harvested after the fire, saguaro ribs from our desert). Two stories and three bedrooms with full baths, each en suite. Downstairs primary suite features hand-laid brick domed ceiling. Lush, ultra-private courtyards with fruit trees, a rooftop deck connecting upper bedrooms. A rare treasure property feels 125 years old, yet has none of the restoration concerns of most Barrio Viejo homes. David Carter pays ultimate homage to the history of his neighborhood.
