About this House

Rare Desert Retreat on Nearly One Acre - No HOA!

Experience the perfect combination of space, quality craftsmanship, and peaceful Arizona living in this exceptional 5-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom 3,809 Sq. Ft. home situated on one acre in a quiet, established neighborhood where every home resides on a .98-acre lot. With no HOA, outstanding privacy, and convenient access to shopping, dining, and highly rated schools just 10-15 minutes away, this property truly offers the best of both worlds.

Designed for comfortable everyday living and memorable entertaining, the home features a spacious living room and a large kitchen with abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, and a cozy breakfast nook beneath a beautiful picture window that fills the room with natural light.

The finished basement offers incredible flexibility with a cozy family room centered on a welcoming fireplace, a spacious recreation room (approximately 400 sq/ft) perfect for games, hobbies, or a home theater, approximately 320sq/ft storage room, and abundant storage throughout the home. Due to its impressive 8-inch-thick concrete basement walls, the lower level naturally stays cool during Arizona's hot summers and comfortably warm during the winter months.

Built with lasting quality in mind, this home features durable construction throughout, the 8-inch basement walls have 2-inches of insulation foam on both sides; the upstairs is constructed with 4-inch concrete walls 2 inches of foam on each side with a stucco finish that provides exceptional strength, energy efficiency, and long-term durability.

Step outside and discover your own private desert sanctuary. The meticulously landscaped front yard creates outstanding curb appeal, while the backyard is a peaceful oasis that attracts hummingbirds and a wide variety of native Arizona birds.

Enjoy morning coffee or evening gatherings on the expansive covered back porch overlooking the natural beauty of the property. Three handcrafted Southwestern metal gates add distinctive charm, while a digital timed sprinkler system keeps the landscaping thriving with minimal effort.

The expansive lot provides endless opportunities to create your dream outdoor lifestyle, with ample room for a guest casita, swimming pool, horse corral, gardens, or additional recreational space. A large horse shoe driveway offers abundant parking for guests, RVs, trailers, and recreational vehicles, while the oversized two-car garage includes a dedicated workspace for projects, hobbies, or extra storage.

This is more than a home--it's a lifestyle. Offering no street lights the stars above shine bright on moonless nights. Peaceful desert surroundings, and unlimited potential, this rare property is ready to welcome its next owners.

Option to attend Cienega, Empire or Andrada High Schools.

    "Vail Unified Scho District is the #1 ranked school district in AZ. Although, you don't have to live in Vail to attend Vail schools. many neighboring communities in Tucson get to attend the Vail school district schools without having to pay Vail township taxes for these schools. A great example of this is Rita Ranch, which is in Tucson, has a Tucson address, residents pay Tucson taxes but, their kids get to go to school at Vail schoola."

    "We will retire to this area. It is peaceful, quite and you can still see the stars. Neighbours are wonderful, friendly and always willing to wave as they pass and help if needed. Schools are terrific. There is NO crime and if there was, bad guys watch out. People come out here for their privacy and as such buy larger lots of land and expect you to respect the land as much as they do. You can still see the stars at night as you are surrounded by the Rincons which block the city light glare. Shopping at walmart, walgreens, safeway, albertsons or frys is a meer 20" - 25" away. It's well worth the commute:)"
