About This Home

As of April 2025

Perched high above Oro Valley, this home features see-forever views that will take your breath away. From the great room, you can see the Tucson Mountains, Tortolita Mountains, and Picachio Peak over 40 miles away. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in the shadow of Pusch Ridge, the home and grounds are a peaceful retreat to enjoy the desert's natural beauty. The two-car garage features a full third bay that has been converted into a workshop. The pool area offers stunning views of the Catalina Mountains, which transform with the passing of the sun through the sky and end the day with a spectacular sunset glow. A detached 800 sqft studio with soaring ceilings is a fantasy bonus space that could be utilized in any number of creative ways.
