    What's special

    Just 34 miles from the Tucson International Airport, you'll find this Massive, Sprawling, Historic, Resort Hacienda dating back to 1925. Immerse yourself in the charm, character, history and class of a bygone era, when craftsmen took pride in their work and built homes to last for generations, with hand-laid block and plaster walls. Recently restored/updated (over the last 6 months), paying special attention to, and keeping all of the classic elegance of, the original wood ceilings and floors (reminiscent of strolling through historic downtown Tombstone) while adding the more modern comforts you would expect in a home of this caliber. 3 new HVAC units on the main home. Extensively upgraded electrical throughout the property. Roofs on the main home, Guest Casita, and shingled 576 sf studio, are all under 2-year warranty. Gorgeous, lush grounds with automatic irrigation and mature, low maintenance trees create this picturesque, inspirational oasis. New appliances, and far too many new fixtures, upgrades and work to mention here. The adorable guest Casita has 2 BR, 2 BA, kitchen, and is a perfect place for family, friends or rental income. LOTS of storage and outbuildings/workshops, covered parking for 4-5 vehicles, and an additional 576 sf detached building makes a great exercise studio, rec room, art studio, or turn it into an additional guest house or tiny home. It has a brand new mini split HVAC with heat. Over 7300 SF of living space, not including caretaker's quarters and 2900 SF of covered patios. The property is also zoned Commercial (B-2) and would make an exquisite venue for weddings, parties and celebrations - or just make it your own Entertainer's paradise or family compound and be the envy of all your guests at your next event. They can even stay the night in the 2 additional queen size Murphy beds hidden in the ballroom! Property has a private well, with high water table, great water pressure and volume. The rich soil in this area grows plants and flowers like magic - a gardener's paradise. Take advantage of the 3 Phase electric or add solar panels to the expansive roof and be completely off grid and independent. Pool has new pump, filter, and integrated in-ground cleaning system, with warranty. New pumps/equipment/electrical in fountains as well. This kind of architecture, character, and history is hard to find. The main home was originally known as the "Old Amado School House" dating back to 1925. It was designed by Annie Graham Rockfellow, the first woman graduate of MIT, and the first woman architect registered in AZ. Most of her later buildings were inspired by the Spanish Colonial Revival and Mission Revival styles, which is very obvious here. Although she received many residential commissions, Rockfellow preferred commercial work. Her more notable contributions to the architecture in Southern AZ include El Conquistador Hotel, Desert Sanatorium, La Fonda Buena Provecho, and The Safford School. Pictures simply do not tell the story, this Malibu-Style estate must be seen in person to truly appreciate the location, views, and privacy from the moment you enter the gates of this enchanting property. Your own personal, private oasis, less than 35 miles from the Tucson International Airport and downtown Tucson. Being only 10 minutes from all of the shopping/conveniences of Green Valley, the Historic Artisan Village of Tubac, easy access to the freeway, and multiple nearby golf courses, makes this home ideally located. Higher elevation means this area is consistently cooler than Tucson, yet only 30 miles away. This is the perfect place to call home and entertain year-round. The feeling of this amazing estate cannot be easily put into words. Please check out the music video and virtual Matterport tour, just click on the arrows on the photo. Furniture sold separately. Owner will carry and also available for trade. Schedule a showing today! The single wide mobile has no value and is a storage unit.
