Exquisite Sonoran Desert Retreat - A One-of-a-Kind Masterpiece. Discover the enchanting beauty of Rancho Cielo, a custom-designed 2,783 sq. ft. architectural gem nestled on 3.31 acres of serene desert landscape, with stunning rock work, in northwest Tucson. This exceptional three-bedroom, two-bath home is a true work of art, featuring hand-troweled Venetian plaster interiors, soaring 14-foot ceilings, and expansive picture windows framing breathtaking 180-degree views of the Santa Catalina Mountains. Every detail of this residence exudes craftsmanship and elegance. The open-concept design seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living, highlighted by custom Knotty Alder cabinetry, Mesquite doors, and high-end kitchen appliances. A spacious office/den, a library with built-in shelving and an adjacent wet bar and a potential 85-square-foot wine cellar offer both functionality and refinement. Step outside through two sets of French doors opening onto a spectacular view of the Santa Catalina Mountains and a 65-foot resort-like back porch; framed by six hand-carved 9-foot Cantera stone columns, imported from Guadalajara, Mexico. The 515 sq. ft. primary suite is a true sanctuary, with 11-foot ceilings, a spa-like Jacuzzi tub with a mountain view, and a generous walk-in closet. Throughout the home, elegant architectural finishes and archways draw inspiration from India, Morocco, and Mexico, lending a sense of worldly sophistication. Uniquely designed 'in-the-round', the residence flows effortlessly into a private 30-foot circular Moroccan garden, centered around a Bali-inspired water fountain and surrounded by mature fig and pomegranate trees. This estate is adorned with two stunning hand-crafted cupola domes, an outdoor shower tucked between bamboo and pomegranates, and an intimate interior courtyard offering nine floor-to-ceiling window views from nearly every room. The entryway welcomes guests with a striking nine-foot antique Mesquite door, opening into a lush, botanical haven. For those who cherish sustainability, 32 solar panels power the home, complemented by R-44 insulated walls, R-55 insulated ceilings, a Trane 21.5 SEER air conditioning system, and an 89 gallon hot water heater augmented by a second solar hot water heater, resulting in energy efficiency reminiscent of the 1950s. A 5,000-gallon water storage tank ensures an ample supply of sweet, pristine well water from a private two-family well. Outdoor enthusiasts will delight in the stargazing and yoga deck, offering panoramic views of city lights, the Santa Catalina and Tortolita Mountains, and Kitt Peak National Observatory. Additional outdoor features include a south-facing garden patio and a classic free-standing stone ramada, perfect for entertaining. This extraordinary home sits a short walk from the La Cañada Wash, a gateway to hiking trails in the Tortolita Mountains, where deer, javelina, and rabbits roam freely. The property's deed allows for an 1,252 sq. ft. guest house, providing an incredible opportunity to expand upon this private desert sanctuary. All of this, just 25 minutes from downtown Tucson and the university district, a truly rare find in the Sonoran Desert.
