Tucson metro neighborhood overlooked by Catalina Mountains
Cimarron Foothills Estates stands among the affluent neighborhoods that make up a larger Tucson metro community at the base of the Catalina Mountains. The neighborhood sits close to Sabino Canyon, one of the leading outdoor destinations in this part of Arizona.

However, many here don’t necessarily need to leave their blocks to enjoy their surroundings. “I love Cimarron. Cimarron’s beautiful. A lot of the houses in Cimarron are going to have stunning views of both the mountains and the city,” says Tony Ray Baker, a Realtor with Re/Max professionals. “You’ll see a lot of people walking in there, and you’re really close to the mountain range just hovering above you.”

Spanish style homes along winding roads
Like other places in the Catalina Foothills area, Cimarron boasts spacious lots that can go over an acre — a benefit partly resulting from the community’s design. “I think I like the way that neighborhood was built, too. If you look at it on a map, you’ll see it’s not grid-like. It’s winding roads through the small hills, so you get a lot more space between the houses in there. It’s got a very custom vibe to it,” Baker says. Located amid desert landscapes covered with a mix of cacti, palms and short trees, homes here showcase the Spanish designs prevalent across Tucson. Homes here primarily run between $800,000 and $1 million.
Most homes in Cimarron Foothills Estates sit on at least a half acre of land.
