Pristine blue skies and views of the surrounding mountains await at this tranquil, single-story home, beautifully situated in the open desert landscape of Tucson. In this majestic natural setting, you'll have a fenced backyard and a shaded patio that make a wonderful spot for family barbecues at golden hour.
This home boasts a prime location for hiking, with Tucson Mountain Park and its scenic trails less than two miles up the road. Here on the west side of Tucson, you'll also be close to downtown (five miles), the University of Arizona (seven miles), Saguaro National Park (nine miles), and golf courses in every direction.
No matter how you choose to spend your days, you'll delight in beginning and ending each one outside in the peaceful backyard. Sit down for alfresco breakfasts on the patio, indulge in afternoon naps in the hammock, and admire the sparkling night sky as you flip steaks and burgers on the grill.
The centrally air-conditioned interior is bright, open, and polished, with large picture windows framing mountain and valley views throughout. Enjoy a well-appointed kitchen (with double ovens, a top-of-the-line fridge, and both Keurig and drip coffee makers), a light-filled dining room, and a living room where you can stream movies by the wood-burning fireplace on cool winter evenings.
All four bedrooms feature views of the desert, with the primary suite offering its own smart TV, bathroom, and access to the patio. Bonus features of the house include a private laundry room and complimentary WiFi.
We believe in Unreasonable Hospitality — going beyond what's expected to make your stay unforgettable. Tell us what brings you here, and we'll look for ways to surprise you.

Thank you! We’re so glad you enjoyed the peaceful setting and convenient access to the trails. We’d love to host you again!
As we were visiting the Tucson area primarily to hike and mountain bike, this was an ideal location. Spacious rooms, nice linens, great living areas and very dog-friendly. The house is a little quirky-we had to make sure…
