Catalina Foothills (Tucson) Majestic Views, Elevator, Twin 68-Foot Balconies
It’s nestled high on a ridge in the prestigious Alta Vista neighborhood of the Catalina Foothills. Present-day Alta Vista was some the most prized Foothills land, purchased by the late billionaire, Howard Hughes, in the 1950s.
This two-story, nearly 4,000 sq ft custom home is located in a quiet cul-de-sac that boasts both privacy and tranquility. Observe your closest neighbors, soaring Red-tailed Hawks and chattering Gambel’s Quail from the comfort of your private swim spa.
Twin 68-foot balconies afford you some of the most stunning views in Tucson, including telescopic Downtown views…and views of three mountain ranges: Santa Catalina, Tucson and Baboquivari. You’ll enjoy views as far as 73 miles, all the way to Baboquivari Peak, the sacred, ancestral homeland of the Tohono O’odham tribe.
There’s plenty of splendor and solitude in the gated flagstone courtyard, and of course…more captivating views. And you are just minutes from prime locations, including: Loews Ventana Canyon Resort, Ventana Canyon Golf and Racquet Club, Ventana Village, and the La Encantada Mall: the center of the most upscale shopping in Southern Arizona.
The living area is resplendent with 12-foot high ceilings, elegant hardwood floors and wall windows. You can relish your home theater with built-in, directional speakers or just observe the majestic sunsets with a sip of Chardonnay on the sofa.
The spacious living area melds seamlessly into the 68 foot balcony — perfect for entertaining your guests or just enjoying a quiet evening.
Ultra-spacious master bedroom leads to adjoining master bath and walk-in closet…as well as to the 68-foot long upper balcony, the perfect venue for the observing the Fourth of July fireworks show at the Skyline Country Club. Membership not required.
Library with custom, built-in book shelves offers the perfect, peaceful reading room.

Hi . I’m wondering if this house is still for sale? I will be relocating soon and need to secure a residence sight unseen. It would help if you had any other info that might help. Thank You…. William.
Hi, William!
Thanks for your inquiry. Yes, this house is still available. Please give me a call at 520-370-0700 for more information.
This home has unbelievable views of the city (from top of the hill!!!), sunset and Catalina Foothills Mountain range. It’s on cul-de-sac and is very private, with a few high-end neighbors. The new construction on the same block is currently for sale for over 2 million dollars. Next door house was sold in 2006 for $1,466,000; and similar sales (except for one foreclosure) were recorded for only a few more homes sold on this street in the last few years.
This home is custom, however, and its layout may work either perfect, or doesn’t work at all. It has almost 3,000 sq.ft. on the main floor and over 1,000 sq.ft. in the downstairs suite/office/guest quarters. The main level has 2 bedrooms /2 bathrooms (only) and the library (in addition to foyer, living area, kitchen, breakfast area, dining room, laundry and garage). Master bedroom /bathroom are extremely spacious and the flow of the house feels great if the number of bedrooms work for you. The lower level has kitchenette and bar (granite counters, tiles and built-in cherry wood cabinets), living area, bedroom with built-in cherry wood Murphy bed and office furniture, bathroom and a few walk-in closets.
Both levels have huge 68 sq.ft. balconies and the view. The lower level is accessible by elevator inside the house or staircase outside (no interior steps). Pool/ spa is located on the lower level and is a “spool” – a large spa with 2 jets that create a strong current to swim against. This area is very private.
The gated flagstone courtyard with a fountain is also very private and quite away from the street/cul-de-sac.
Again, I’d love to tell you more, so please feel free to give me a call. If this house doesn’t work for you, I and my team would be happy to find you another one, that would fit your criteria.
Sincerely,
Anjelina Belakovskaia
