Luxury, Light & Unforgettable Views in Alta Vista. Set in the prestigious Catalina Foothills, this exceptional Santa Fe-inspired residence captures dramatic Catalina Mountain views by day, glowing sunsets in the evening, and sparkling Tucson city lights after dark. Rich architectural details give this home a character all its own. Soaring cedar ceilings, exposed viga beams, and Mexican Borgata brick floors bring warmth and authenticity to the expansive living spaces, while walls of windows keep the surrounding desert and mountains constantly in view. The thoughtfully designed split floor plan provides both openness and privacy, with every bedroom featuring its own ensuite bath and access to a private or adjoining patio.At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen was made for gathering and entertaining, featuring an oversized island, professional gas range, dual sinks, walk-in pantry, and an additional prep area that can also serve as an office or catering space. The primary suite is a true retreat, offering privacy, beautiful views, and a peaceful connection to the outdoors. Outside, Arizona living takes center stage. A Pebble Tec pool with waterfall and spa creates a private resort-like setting, while the built-in BBQ and generous outdoor living areas are perfectly positioned for everything from quiet sunrise coffee to sunset dinners with a front row view of the Catalina Mountains. And then there are the extras that make this property especially rare: three distinct garage spaces, including a one-car garage with adjoining studio, a two-car garage, and a hard-to-find RV garage with cedar closet. An additional air-conditioned and heated workshop provides even more flexibility for hobbies, collections, projects, or storage. Timeless Southwest character, extraordinary views, exceptional garage space, and a setting that captures the very best of Catalina Foothills living--this is a home that simply cannot be appreciated from the photos alone.
