Property Description

Perched on a coveted ridge in Skyline Bel Air Estates, this classic Catalina Foothills residence captures sweeping, unobstructed Catalina Mountain views and a sense of elevation that defines true Foothills living. Positioned noticeably above surrounding properties, the home enjoys panoramic sight lines, dramatic sunsets, and remarkable natural light throughout the day. Built in 1968 with solid slump-block construction, the home reflects the enduring quality and authentic character that made the Foothills famous. These substantial walls provide natural thermal efficiency, durability, and timeless architectural appeal rarely found in newer construction. Inside, approximately 2,869 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space includes expansive windows, generous living and dining areas ideal for entertaining, and comfortable separation between living and bedroom wings. Designed to capture the surrounding mountain scenery, the main living area offers generous scale and a layout that feels open and inviting. The spacious living room is highlighted by a fireplace, cathedral-style vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, and expansive windows that frame the Catalina Mountains while filling the space with natural light. The kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, stainless appliances, and a practical layout that connects naturally to both casual and formal dining areas. An eat-in breakfast nook and built-in desk/workstation provide flexibility for everyday living, while the formal dining area enjoys views of the city, creating a memorable setting for gatherings and evening meals. The bedroom wing provides separation and flexibility, including a spacious primary suite with mountain views, along with well-proportioned secondary bedrooms suitable for guests, family, or a home office. Outdoor living is a highlight of the property. A kidney-shaped pool is positioned to capture the mountain backdrop, surrounded by expansive flagstone patios, multiple seating areas, and mature desert landscaping that blends seamlessly with the natural environment. Established saguaros, palo verde, and desert vegetation create texture, scale, and a sense of permanence that cannot be replicated in newer landscapes. A screened porch provides additional year-round outdoor living space ideal for morning coffee, evening gatherings, or enjoying Tucson's monsoon skies. The property includes a two-car garage as well as a two-car carport, offering flexible covered parking and additional space for vehicles or guests. Skyline Bel Air Estates is one of the Catalina Foothills' most established and desirable neighborhoods, known for its varied elevations, distinctive homes, and proximity to Tucson's best amenities. La Encantada's premier shopping and dining, world-class hiking in Sabino Canyon and Ventana Canyon, and the highly regarded Catalina Foothills School District are all just minutes away. Ridge-top properties of this caliber rarely become available. With panoramic mountain views, authentic Foothills architecture, mature desert landscaping, and a setting defined by elevation and outlook, this home offers a rare opportunity to own a timeless piece of the Catalina Foothills lifestyle.
