Embrace rare desert privacy and stunning mountain views with this sprawling Southwestern residence that has been totally renovated and has NO HOA! Delivering an impressive 3BD/2BA+Casita+3 Car Garage+Pool/Spa+Bonus Room+RV electric hookup+New HVAC (2,544 sqft), this home balances beautiful Southwestern architecture with day-to-day modern comfort. Nestled on an expansive full one-acre lot, the property provides an abundance of breathing room, natural open space, and privacy seldom found in dense standard subdivisions. Pass through the entrance to discover a light-filled open great room enhanced by towering, beamed ceilings, fantastic southwestern tile floors, and a cozy fireplace. Designed for seamless convenience and entertainment, the floor plan connects the main living and dining areas effortlessly to the culinary core. The generous kitchen features extensive storage cabinetry, leathered granite countertops, and updates you will need to see to believe. The home's floorplan accommodates three spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a private primary retreat complete with generous walk-in closet space and en-suite bathroom. The indoor living spaces transition smoothly outdoors onto a covered rear patio with fantastic views. Bound by pristine native desert trees, cacti, and mountain backdrops, the sprawling acreage serves as a quiet sanctuary for outdoor dining, poolside relaxation, and watching Southern Arizona's notorious sunrises and sunsets. Perfectly positioned right on the edge of Oro Valley, you enjoy a tranquil, lower-density desert lifestyle that remains just minutes from regional retail hubs and grocery centers.
Tortolita, located between the Tortolita Mountains and the Santa Cruz River, is a desert and foothills Oro Valley neighborhood with wide-open washes and big-sky views. The area reads as low-slung Southwestern homes, newer subdivisions, and equestrian-style lots set against saguaro-studded slopes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Tangerine Road and North Thornydale Road corridor, where trailheads, local cafés, and weekend errand traffic set a practical, outdoors-first rhythm. Community pillars include Tohono Chul, the Gaslight Music Hall, and the Southern Arizona Arts & Cultural Alliance campus for concerts, gardens, and gallery time. Dirt paths and paved multi-use routes link daily routines to the region’s hiking and cycling network. Sunsets and mountain silhouettes tend to define the pace more than storefronts.
