Property Description
Seller will accept or counter offers between $680,000 and $695,000. An eclectic oasis in the heart of desirable Sam Hughes neighborhood, two blocks from the UofA main campus, close to amazing restaurants, shopping, activities, yet safely patrolled by campus police. This home has historical tax status reducing taxes. The enchanting jewel tones used throughout the home highlight the custom glass and tile mosaic work completed by a UofA art student. Every room has niches and nostalgic touches to explore, including vintage glass doorknobs, historic windows, French doors, wooden ceilings in kitchen and bedroom! The entire property is fully fenced for privacy and has space enough for a pool or water feature, which the seller has plans and permits drawn up and PAID FOR. The back patio holds lots of mature plantings, an orange tree, an above-ground spa, an infrared sauna, and a newer stacking washer-dryer which convey with the property. There are 2 double gates to the property allowing for RV, boat, toy parking, gravel-paved driveway. A 2-car garage with a full wall of glass windows makes an amazing art studio. It also has plans and permits drawn up and paid for, to build an ADU or casita above the garage. Many upgrades including newer HVAC unit. See attached list for all upgrades and updates. Comments from the owners: When people enter our house the first thing they say is "Wow". Probably because of all the color but the best reaction we ever got was "this looks like a Happy House". I loved it because that was my first reaction too. I have a theory about being attracted to so much color. We're from northern CA and there is so much green, and flowers grow profusely, so while I've been in AZ I love brightly painted walls and furniture and everything bright because I miss the color. If you like gray and neutral, this house is probably not your thing, but it could be toned down, I guess. We love this house but have decided to move closer to our kids. It was a hard decision because we love Tucson and have been here for over 25 years. We'd love for someone to enjoy our house as much as we have.
