An extraordinary opportunity to own one of Tucson's most distinctive historic income-producing compounds, generating approximately **$246,000 in annual rental income** with significant additional upside. Behind gated entrances from both Prospect Lane and Limberlost, this unique property features **9 separate residences**, a resort-style pool, mature landscaping, fruit orchards, gardens and approximately **½ acre of undeveloped land with the potential to add up to 12 additional units**. The property offers a diversified income stream through a mix of long-term rentals, short-term rentals and owner-occupied space, while providing exceptional flexibility for a future owner. Continue the current income strategy, expand the existing residential footprint, create a multi-generational family compound, corporate or executive housing destination, boutique retreat, or explore other potential uses. Unlike a typical multi-unit investment, this is an irreplaceable historic compound where each residence has its own character and identity. Extensive improvements have modernized the property while preserving its historic charm, including central A/C throughout, renovated bathrooms, restored fireplaces, updated roofs, plumbing, electrical, windows and appliances, plus upgraded gates, fencing, parking and the addition of a resort-style pool. With approximately $250,000 in current annualized income, 9 residences, potential for 12 additional units, and a rare combination of historic character, privacy and flexibility**, this is far more than an income property--it is a one-of-a-kind compound with immediate cash flow and exceptional future potential.

Campus Farm, located between North Campbell Avenue and North Tucson Boulevard, is a residential and academic-adjacent Tucson neighborhood with midcentury ranch homes and desert landscaping. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Campbell Avenue corridor near East Grant Road, where coffee counters, local eateries, and bike traffic set a steady daytime rhythm. The University of Arizona’s Steward Observatory and the Tucson Botanical Gardens serve as nearby cultural anchors with a distinctly Tucson sense of place. Streets feel leafy by desert standards, with mature shade trees and wide setbacks that soften the Sonoran light. Daily routines often orbit campus-area paths, small parks, and the low-rise, brick-and-stucco architecture typical of central Tucson.
