The rush of the city fades to a palpable silence as you wind your way into the foothills of the Tucson Mountains to the Horseback House, where the romance of the Sonoran Desert becomes a part of your daily rhythms. Access to the network of trails that meander their way through nearby Sweetwater Preserve is within walking distance, providing ample opportunity for spontaneous hikes. Inside the home you'll find Southwestern-inspired living at its finest. Warm saltillo tile throughout creates an organic aesthetic and successfully establishes a true sense of the Southwest within the home, further enhanced by the rustic viga beams that span the length of the main living space. Five sets of French doors in both the living space and dining room bathe the interior of the home in natural light while granting views of both the urban sprawl of Tucson below and the soaring peaks of the Tucson Mountains above. The kitchen is an exercise in the skillful balance of both functionality and style, having been fully reimagined under the care of an award winning interior designer. Quartzite countertops crown custom cabinetry while an Ilve range sits beneath a bespoke range hood, and a paneled SubZero refrigerator provides unparalleled performance where it matters most.
Since 2023 this home has seen its share of upgrades, ensuring smooth operation of systems behind the scenes: the kitchen has been outfitted with a new appliance package (with the exception of the existing SubZero refrigerator), new tankless water heaters furnish hot water on demand, upgraded electrical panels offer enhanced capabilities for your power needs, while new air conditioners provide zoned cooling and maximize energy efficiency.
A desirable composition of both native desert landscaping and mature fruit trees clothe this over three-acre horse property, creating a balanced + grounded feel in the outdoor living spaces. An extensive ramada and glassy saltwater pool provide year-round outdoor enjoyment just outside your back door, and the lower yard is complete with several raised beds for the gardening enthusiast.
The serenity and solitude to be found at the Horseback House doesn't come at the cost of convenience, you'll find that the University of Arizona is a 30-minute drive away, downtown Tucson 25 minutes, and grocery a short 15 minute trip down the road.
Come experience the lifestyle the Horseback House has to offer today.
