A fabulous hideaway in one of Tucson’s best mid-century modern areas! Nestled on a quiet street lined with majestic old palm trees, you’ll find this marvelously renovated and fully re-modeled traditional Tucson “bungalow” with all the modern bells and whistles and fabulous Catalina Mountain views to boot, a real rarity in Central Tucson and included at no additional cost. With a distinguished slate-covered mailbox and circular drive, and handsome slate pillars accenting the entry, this is a very special pied-a-terre. Step inside to a casually chic home with travertine floors throughout except for newly carpeted bedrooms. The great room and kitchen, accented by a granite covered bar, enjoy lovely mountain views. Recessed lighting in the great room soffit provides soft mood lighting in the evening. The kitchen island is a one-of-a-kind gorgeous slab of granite supported by architecturally angled tan brick columns; the same soft tan bricks make an attractive backsplash throughout the kitchen. Matching granite countertops are accented by richly hued maple cabinetry. The laundry room, with modern washer/dryer including steam feature, also provides ample pantry space, room to hang drying clothes and more wonderful views. Of course there are excellent views to be enjoyed while doing dishes in the stainless sink, which includes a 6-stage reverse osmosis filtration system for tasty and healthy water. A deep archway leads to a cozy dining area and den with gas-log fireplace surrounded by deep shelving for art and books and a sittable travertine hearth. Adjacent is a large master bedroom, freshly carpeted and painted in soothing gray and cream tones and accented by a long travertine window seat overlooking the charming rear garden. The walk-in closet is lined in Eastern red cedar imported from Georgia. A lovely tiled and mirrored niche adds a touch of Art Deco style. And the master both-HUGE! A large Jacuzzi-jetted tub sits on a raised travertine pedestal; the floor, counters and shower are also travertine tile. A pair of delicate chandeliers illuminate the counter with double sinks and great storage below. On the other side of the home is a second large and freshly carpeted master suite with another cedar lined walk-in closet, an elegantly tiled shower and counter and another walk-in closet. A room separated from the great room by a very cool and new barn door serves as an office or third bedroom. The rear yard is a gem, with a ramada including fans and a refrigerator, a wood-burning firepit, a built-in gas bar-b-que, a waterfall and pond, and a lockable storage shed/workshop with electricity. Along with the visible elements of updating, the electricity system has been replaced/updated so there are all new sub-panels/fuse boxes totally up to code. The roofing was redone for both the main home and ramada in August 2015. The walkability score of this home is off the charts: walk to the El Con Mall and theatre, Reid Zoo, Rincon Market, the trolley stop, and lots of casual and family restaurants. Enjoy walking through quiet older neighborhoods that they just don't make anymore. And the U of A is also nearby and certainly bikeable. For anyone looking for a delightful living opportunity in Central Tucson, this could make your day!
