This three bedroom home is on a corner lot of 0.66 acres in the Shadow Hills subdivision in the Catalina Foothills of north cental Tucson. It is a desired location for easy access to The University or Arizona, shopping centers, professional services, hospitals, and a highly-rated school district.
A master bedroom suite on one side of the house has access to a covered patio, and the master bathroom contains a Jacuzzi and walk-in shower.
Two bedrooms and bath are on the opposite end of the house. A formal living room and a family room also have french-door access to the patio, as well as to a second covered patio adjacent to the swimming pool.
A formal dining room, kitchen, and kitchen nook complete the 2864 square foot living area floor plan.
Skylights, a brick-front fireplace, and high ceilings provide warmth and charm to the living spaces.
Seasonal heating and cooling are provided by 13 sear heat exchangers for each side of the house.
Plantation shutters and draperies are used throughout to control the amount of summer sun entering the house, along with solar screens on all south and west-facing windows not covered by the patio roofs.
A large two car garage has a locked storage room, cabinet space and work-bench space for power tools and yard tools.
A half-bath serves the garage and pool activities and provides a separate entrance to the pool and back yard. Pool equipment is in a covered Ramada containing a 400,000 BTU natural gas heater for the spa and pool.
A laundry room is adjacent to the half-bath as well. These spaces increase the total covered area to approximately 3900 square feet!
The 52 -foot pool was designed by the owner as a lap pool, and in addition has been found to serve very well as a do-everything pool (except diving) for grand-kids.
A grapefruit and a lime tree in the back yard, as well as desert ornamental trees and bushes in the back yard and front yard are irrigated by a timer-controlled drip system.
There are two locations in the yard for a possible additional building, such as a workshop, studio, greenhouse, or guest quarters.
