Set on one of the finest homesites within this architecturally significant enclave of historic townhomes, this rare end-unit residence captures unobstructed Catalina Mountain views from an elevated vantage point at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. Bordering common area, the setting offers exceptional privacy--an uncommon quality in townhome living--while providing true lock-and-leave living within walking distance of La Encantada Mall. This collection of just 14 townhomes is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was designed by renowned architect Juan Worner Baz. Trained in Mexico City and recruited by celebrated Tucson developers John and Helen Murphey, Worner Baz carried forward the Catalina Foothills aesthetic established in collaboration with architect Josias Joesler in previous years. His Modern Mexican Colonial style blends burnt adobe construction, carved wood beams, sculptural detailing, artistic desert landscaping, and gracious courtyards and patios that foster effortless indoor-outdoor living. A charming brick courtyard entry beneath a tiled roof welcomes you through a wrought-iron gate. Inside, the single-level, no-steps residence is filled with natural light, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the exceptional views. Scalloped wood-beamed ceilings, new ceramic tile flooring, and a gas fireplace add warmth and architectural character throughout. The thoughtfully designed split-bedroom floor plan features three bedrooms, two of which are primary suites--one oriented to unobstructed Catalina Mountain views and the other with expansive windows capturing city lights. The third bedroom offers flexibility for guests, office, or additional living space. The formal dining room with engineered wood flooring accommodates both intimate gatherings and larger-scale entertaining. The remodeled kitchen features white cabinetry, granite countertops, and a custom backsplash, with a window overlooking the front courtyard and the lush natural desert landscape of the adjacent common area. As an end unit bordered by open space, the residence enjoys an exceptional sense of privacy rarely found in townhome communities. Residents also enjoy a community pool and beautifully landscaped desert grounds designed by noted landscape architect Taro Akutagawa in 1966. Experience privacy and seclusion with close proximity to Tucson's finest amenities--La Encantada mall, Whole Foods Market, AJ's Fine Foods, world-class golf resorts and country clubs, the University of Arizona, downtown Tucson, Oro Valley, La Paloma Resort & Country Club, Skyline Country Club, Hacienda del Sol Guest Ranch Resort, fitness studios, and access to I-10, and the Tucson airport.
