Set within the storied Harold Bell Wright Estates, 6510 E Marta Hillgrove is a rare offering that combines architectural heritage with refined living. The main residence, a southwestern contemporary custom built in 1995, features 3,745 square feet of elegant space. Upon entering the gated property, guests are greeted by ample parking adjacent to thoughtfully designed water features with Koi and goldfish. From there, a decorative wrought iron gate leads into a tranquil courtyard. Inside, soaring ceilings with exposed wood beams create a light-filled atmosphere, while the living room's fireplace and formal dining room invite both relaxation and entertaining. The kitchen is designed for culinary enthusiasts, with a large island, double ovens, stainless steel appliances, natural maple cabinetry, and granite countertops.
The estate includes a guest house and a pool house, built circa 1922, adding flexibility and bringing the total living area to 5,090 square feet. Local lore suggests Helen Keller stayed in the guest house during her visits to Tucson, adding a unique historical dimension. Each bedroom in the main house offers a walk-in closet and en-suite bath, while the primary suite features a large walk-in closet and French doors that open to a covered patio with views of the Santa Catalina Mountains.
Set on 1.15 acres, this property offers privacy, mature desert landscaping, and expansive covered patios for enjoying the outdoors. A four-car tandem garage, dedicated carport, and generous storage meet practical needs, while the absence of an HOA and a central location provide both convenience and seclusion. 6510 E Marta Hillgrove is a masterful blend of design, comfort, nature, and history.
