Discover one of Tucson's best-kept secrets, Orchard River. Welcome to this distinctive mid-century townhome community masterfully designed by Tucson's own award-winning architect, Robert Swaim. Tucked between the serene Historic Fort Lowell Park and the Pantano Wash, this hidden enclave sits on the grounds of a former pecan orchard, offering a lush, mature landscape rarely found in the desert. Though peaceful and private, Orchard River is just minutes from Tucson's top walking and biking trails, restaurants, and shopping destinations.Tucked beneath the canopy of a mature shade tree, Residence #61 enjoys a peaceful corner lot setting within the beautifully landscaped Orchard River community. This spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom townhome has been lovingly maintained over the years, its character while offering comfortable, easy living. The kitchen features original wood cabinetry in remarkable condition, complemented by a matching armoire designed as part of the home's original layout, a unique and thoughtful touch by the architect. Generously sized rooms with abundant natural light create a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout. Durable vinyl and ceramic tile flooring span the entire home, no carpet to worry about. Step outside to your private backyard and covered patio, ideal for weekend barbecues or quiet mornings with a cup of coffee. A recent full roof replacement, covered by the HOA, adds peace of mind and lasting value. Additional features include generous built-in storage and two covered parking spaces.
A community steeped in history and comfort, Orchard River recently earned designation as a National Historic District, bringing with it the potential for significant property tax benefits. Residents enjoy access to a large community pool, along with exclusive on-site gated RV and boat storage, a unique amenity for this type of neighborhood.
Residence 57, directly across from 61, is also available and could be purchased together.
