Property Description
Welcome to an opportunity to reside in the renowned Tucson Canyon Ranch Wellness Resort in an unparalleled Southwestern Santa Fe style residence with fabulous upscale amenities in both the home and the community. The home provides the finest of construction and design details, and has recently been renovated and restored both inside and out at significant expense to be one of the most outstanding homes available in the area. Designed by highly respected and well known Tucson architect, Ron Robinette, in the Pueblo Revival style with a contemporary flair, the home’s thick walls, rounded features and extensive hand-hewn vigas, corbels, and latillos are balanced by soaring ceilings and a softly contemporary aesthetic expressed in exquisite materials,
The home incorporates many unique curved elements that provide a warmth to the spaces, as if the home were embracing you. The elegantly gracious entry foyer is topped with a handsome viga and latillo ceiling and opens to the living, kitchen, dining, bedroom and the office. Handsome hand-carved lintels and corbels frame the entries to each area. The dramatic kitchen welcomes with a long oval island topped with gorgeous gleaming Italian Verde Grigio thick marble and an extensive matching curved wall of Verde Grigio marble counters and storage. Featuring the best of appliances, with a 6 burner + griddle Viking stove, Dacor wall ovens, Sub-Zero refrigerator, warming drawer, wine refrigerator, two sinks, pullout baskets and a large pantry, gourmet chefs or caterers would be quite comfortable here. A comfortable desk area includes a lighted curio cabinet that can display mineral or other collectables. The rounded northeasterly end of the kitchen provides a stunning direct view of the distinctive summit of Thimble Peak amidst the Santa Catalina Mountains, promising eye-opening sunrise views over morning coffee. The pentagonal dining room promises convivial intimate evenings under the beautifully double-coffered gracefully lit ceiling with a view to the outdoor terrace and warming kiva fireplace beyond. The salon, a warm gracious space for gathering and relaxing, is defined by its soaring ceilings and accented by a contemporary version of a traditional beehive fireplace, this one reaching to the 20 ft tall viga and latillo ceiling. Dramatically high clerestory windows abound for plenty of natural light. Glass doors lead outdoors to a long and deep traditional covered patio area with more richly carved and distressed corbels and lintels supporting the overhang, lovely irrigated gardens and mountain views in the distances. The curvature continues outdoors, with gracefully rounded outlines for the two levels of terraces and surrounding walls enclosing the home. A rustic stone waterfall enhances the sense of nature found in the warm materials utilized throughout. Back inside, the powder room features Sherle Wagner gold-plated fixtures and accessories with a lovely sink set in an antique dresser topped in marble. The generously sized office looks out to more mountain views beyond the property’s gardens, and has a handsome built-in bookcase hand-built by a local craftsman. Two ample guest bedrooms each have en suite baths and desert or garden views. The spacious master bedroom suite provides an oval wall of windows also overlooking desert views, and a gas fireplace set in a beautiful surround with a marble hearth. Look upward to the ceiling in this magnificent space, softly curved between whitewashed thick viga beams, a very unique and handsome feature. The real treat is the master bath, with exquisite Azul Blue Macauba Quartzite counters from Italy, creamy travertine marble floors, Jacuzzi tub surround and an oval travertine-lined shower. With more delightful views and a full make-up counter for the lady of the home, this is the spot for a glass of champagne while dressing for that special event, or relaxing in the Jacuzzi after a workout. And what a workout can be had, as Canyon Ranch has the most sophisticated array of exercise options imaginable, from the latest in equipment to the most amazing variety of classes guaranteed to help anyone accomplish their fitness and wellbeing goals. The Ranch and its affiliated Canyon Ranch Institute are famous world-wide for the creative and life-altering opportunities afforded to participants, from improving personal fitness and finding serenity, to recovering from traumatic injuries, to the development of healthy lifestyles. With over 400 fitness, educational and fun activities each week, plus the array of personal services available from a never-ending menu of massages, facials, purifying rituals, ayurvedic treatments and so much more, constantly updated, no one will ever tire of this cornucopia of choices. As a resident of the Ranch, these facilities are always available to you and your guests. Want a massage in the evening after dinner? No problem! Just slip into your robe and walk over to the nearby Massage Center, afterwards take a dip in the beautiful private hot spa before slipping into sleep back at your own beautiful abode. These opportunities to own a home at the Ranch do not come often, and this home is one of those fabulous opportunities. We look forward to sharing it with you. A current appraisal for $3,000,000 is available upon request.
