Situated at the base of the Catalina Mountains, this private 3.3-acre estate rests in an intimate gated community of just four upscale homes. Surrounded by preserved desert with walking paths, abundant wildlife, and sweeping mountain views to the north and east. The single-story, handicap-accessible residence spans approx. 4,165 sq ft, featuring soaring ceilings, expansive picture windows and a fully owned 10kW solar system. Central living spaces flow to a spacious gourmet kitchen and covered patio, ideal for shaded outdoor living. The thoughtful split plan includes a luxurious master retreat, generous guest wing and abundant storage. Outdoors, enjoy a resort-style pool, spa, gas fireplace, built-in grill, maintenance-free turf, RV parking with full hookups, and an oversized 3-car garage. Set within a highly desirable East Tanque Verde enclave at the picturesque base of the Catalina Mountains, this exceptional estate offers rare privacy on a quiet dead-end street surrounded by desert, abundant wildlife, and sweeping mountain views to the north and east. Located in the gated Melpomene Ranch Estates--an intimate community of just four upscale 3+ acre homes--this 3.3-acre property stretches from Melpomene Way to Catalina Highway and includes a preserved natural wild area with walking paths and seating areas. Enjoy effortless access via well-maintained roads, minutes to shopping, schools, golf, and healthcare, and an unforgettable scenic drive up historic General Hitchcock Highway to Summerhaven and the Mount Lemmon ski area. The single-story, handicap-accessible residence spans approximately 4,165 square feet and is thoughtfully designed with central living spaces flanked by private master and guest wings. High ceilings, expansive picture windows, and top-down/bottom-up Hunter Douglas blinds maximize shaded mountain views while maintaining privacy. The home features zoned HVAC (all units replaced in 2022), extensive recessed lighting, whole-home audio, monitored security, and a fully owned 10kW rooftop solar system that reliably produces more power than the home consumes. A spacious family room with gas fireplace opens to a large, functional kitchen with high-end built-ins, granite counters, RO water, and generous cabinetry, all flowing seamlessly to the fully covered back patio--perfect for shaded outdoor living. The guest wing includes a private ensuite bedroom plus two bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, a large laundry room with ample cabinetry, large walk-in pantry, and centralized ethernet hub. The inviting living room features a wet bar, guest bath, and direct patio access, while the dining room accommodates gatherings of up to ten. A versatile office with closet and built-ins offers flexibility. The expansive master suite is a true retreat with sitting area, patio views, dual walk-in closets, and a luxurious bath with dedicated toilet room and bidet, plus its own HVAC and hot water system. Outdoors, the fully enclosed backyard offers maintenance-free turf, a gas fireplace seating area, a rebuilt outdoor BBQ with Lynx Professional grill, and a resort-style pool with waterfall, diving board, and spa--updated with new equipment and lighting. A steel safety fence surrounds the pool area, while the covered patio boasts recessed lighting, ceiling fans, storage, and discreet pet access. Completing the property is an oversized three-car garage with workshop, abundant storage, EV charging station, central vacuum, water filtration/softener, and utility systems. RV parking with full water, sewer, and 220V electric hook-up adjacent to garage. This is a rare opportunity to own a private, impeccably maintained desert estate combining refined living, sustainable efficiency, and unmatched mountain serenity.
