Rio Verde Vista Beauty!
In the heart of the Catalina Foothills, this updated and beautifully maintained 2,801 sq ft Santa Fe–style home blends character, charm, and modern comfort in one of Tucson’s most desirable pockets. A custom metal courtyard entry—designed as a catio—welcomes you inside, where polished concrete floors and solid oak doors throughout set an elegant, cohesive tone. The light-filled floor plan flows effortlessly from room to room, offering warmth and architectural detail at every turn.
The family room is the true centerpiece, featuring soaring tongue and groove beamed ceilings and a raised-hearth Kiva fireplace accented with handmade mosaic tile from Santa Theresa Tile Works. Custom iron double doors open wide to the covered back patio, creating a seamless indoor/outdoor connection. From both the family room and primary bedroom suite enjoy sweeping city lights and Santa Rita Mountain views—captivating by day and magical at night.
The spacious kitchen offers extended height oak cabinetry, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and a custom mosaic-tile accents. A split-bedroom layout provides ideal privacy, with a generous primary suite offering backyard access and an inviting en-suite bath. The guest suite with its own en-suite bath is perfect for extended family, long-term guests, or multigenerational living.
The backyard is a true Foothills retreat. Lush lawn areas attract birds and the occasional bunny, while the Pebble Tec pool with waterfall, built-in BBQ, fire pit, and gazebo create the perfect setting for year-round enjoyment and entertaining. Practical upgrades include a brand-new 2025 roof, owned solar for energy efficiency, two HVAC systems installed in 2018, and an epoxy-coated garage floor that adds durability and a polished finish.
This home’s location is super convenient—just moments from River Center shops and dining, close to BASIS North, and minutes from Sabino Canyon for world-class hiking. Warm, eclectic, and thoughtfully updated, this Foothills gem is ready to welcome its next owner.
