Property Description

Welcome to a beautifully preserved home full of character, warmth, and thoughtful modern updates—complete with a PebbleTec pool and full guest house. The main residence built in 1948 with 2,365 square feet is filled with natural light and timeless charm. A formal living room with large picture windows captures beautiful mountain views, while an inviting family room offers additional gathering space. The cheerful galley-style kitchen blends modern updates with classic character. Vibrant countertops add a fun pop of color, while the farmhouse apron-front sink, gas range, stainless steel appliances, and abundant cabinetry make the space both inviting and functional. The kitchen opens toward the dining area and family room, creating seamless flow throughout the main living spaces. The split layout includes three bedrooms and four bathrooms: a primary suite with private bath, a second ensuite bedroom with its own attached bath (ideal for guests or older kids seeking independence), a guest bedroom with nearby full bath, plus a powder room. There's also a flexible den/bonus room and a bright sun room overlooking the pool perfect for morning coffee or peaceful afternoon reading. Through the front brick courtyard, mature desert trees create a private, shaded retreat with classic Tucson character. Moving toward the back of the property, a sparkling PebbleTec pool invites relaxation, dining, and outdoor living perfect for enjoying warm Arizona days and cool desert evenings. The detached guest house, built in 1926 with 354 square feet, is a full residence of its own, complete with a living area, cozy wood-burning fireplace, kitchenette, and updated bath ideal for guests, in-laws, a studio, or rental income potential. Both the main home and guest house were thoughtfully revitalized in 2014. The land itself is where the magic truly unfolds. With a small animal/chicken pen, a separate storage/workshop building featuring a rare original fruit cellar, ample parking, and wide-open acreage, you have space for hobby farming, gardens, RV parking, or future structures. And with no HOA, you have the freedom to use the property as you envision whether that means creating new outdoor spaces or simply enjoying the room to breathe. In the mid-1900s, this part of Tucson was home to vast citrus groves planted by rancher Reid. While the exact boundaries evolved over time, the surrounding area still reflects that legacy from its agricultural roots to the naming of Orange Grove Road. Today, this one-of-a-kind property carries the warmth, history, and character of that era while offering the comfort and possibilities of modern living. And although the setting feels peaceful and tucked away, you're still just minutes from Whole Foods, shopping, dining, and everything Tucson has to offer. CR-1 zoning on 2.68 acres allows for horses and small livestock, offering the space and flexibility to add future facilities if desired. This is more than a home it's a lifestyle. Space, history, flexibility, and Tucson convenience all in one rare package.
