A quintessential vernacular home by notable Tucson builder Howard Curtin, represents the simplicity of form and expressive spatial compositions, whilst creating wonderfully inviting spaces that offer a unique blend of architectural aesthetic and fluid functionality. Envisioned for both large-scale entertaining and intimate family life, this 4,979 square foot sustainable home offers a state of the art 10.8 KW, 27 panel Enphase Solar System, harnessing natural resources, while optimizing cost efficient energy.
Sited on 2.29 acres, this privately gated residence is elevated with expansive city and mountain views that stretch out over the surrounding Saguaro studded desert landscape. Enter through a private courtyard into a high design interior space that features both scaled social spaces, as well as the privacy of a desert retreat. The entry draws one into the home's midpoint through sun-dappled spaces, acting as the spine that connects the integrated living environments. The open floor plan complements the warm interior features, while taking full advantage of large picture windows that frame the surrounding desert landscapes.
The main foyer showcases stunning regional Flagstone flooring that float seamlessly throughout the space, while opening onto a formal living room, juxtaposed with stunning cherry wood floors, providing an ever so subtle contrast. The gourmet chef's kitchen features soft wood cabinetry set against natural stone countertops, providing sufficient task space, with a stainless steel pro series appliance package, complete with top-end fit and finish, where every measurement and detail have been carefully considered.
The owner's suite is privately sequestered on the Southeast end of the residence, featuring a combination of luxury treatments and oversized walk-in dual closets. A secondary en-suite bedroom is also available on the primary level, that is generous and bright, perfectly suited for guests and family alike. Two additional bedrooms + an Office/Flex space are discreetly located on the Northeast end of the residence, with access to a large viewing deck that overlooks the natural landscape, with the Catalina Mountains and Finger Rock views beyond.
The elevated hilltop site was specifically designed to preserve a generous portion of level ground allocated for outdoor living, opening onto multiple large covered patios, providing a refuge from daily life and space for quiet reflection, creating a unified experience of lifestyle, architecture, and landscape. The North yard, accessed off the entry foyer, as well as the kitchen and informal living room is perfectly designed to take in the unobstructed Mountain views and evening sunsets melting across the distant skyline. The Southern yard comprises an integrated pool and spa, creating the perfect backdrop to indulge in the expansive city views, with the capacity to enjoy and entertain being effortless.
