Beyond its prime location, this nearly acre-sized property is an eco-conscious retreat. A large solar installation with two full-size inverters powers the home, while a 240V outlet in the garage keeps your EV charged. Enjoy a sustainable lifestyle with two rainwater capture tanks, a greywater "laundry-to-landscape" system, and multiple mature fruit treesincluding orange, mandarin, pomegranate, and fig. A private walking path winds through the serene landscape, and the backyard oasis features a pool, hot tub, outdoor shower, and manicured side yard with stunning Catalina Mountain views. Inside, the home maximizes both comfort and energy efficiency. Four north-facing bedrooms provide picturesque mountain views while offering shade from the Arizona sun. The spacious primary suite allows for flexible use, while the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas create a seamless space for family life and entertaining. Two sliding doors lead to the expansive back patio, blending indoor and outdoor living for year-round enjoyment. Words fall short of capturing the essence of this extraordinary home.
