Exceptional southwestern-style custom home with panoramic mountain views in the Estates at Honey Bee Ridge, a guard-gated community in the picturesque Tortolita Mountains in the town of Oro Valley. This elevated, former Street of Dreams homesite offers commanding views of the Pusch Ridge, sparkling city lights, and breathtaking Arizona sunsets. A gentle climb up the paver-lined driveway leads to a spacious motor court with ample guest parking. This sanctuary-style home begins with a charming brick walkway lined with vibrant desert landscaping and the scent of jasmine in the air, which leads to a large, enclosed courtyard shaded by mature mesquite trees. This impeccably maintained home is filled with warmth, character, and architectural detail. Soaring wood-beamed ceilings and a wall of windows frame the stunning Catalina Mountains, immediately connecting the indoors with the surrounding natural beauty. The Saltillo tile floors throughout the home, with no carpet, are complemented by custom wood cabinets, built-ins, and natural stone elements.
The heart of the home is the beautifully renovated kitchen, which was updated in 2023. It features custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a center island, and stainless steel appliances, including a gas cooktop with a copper-covered hood. Floor-to-ceiling windows surround the adjacent breakfast nook. A custom copper bar area, located next to the wet bar with sink and wine refrigerator, adds convenience for entertaining.
The open kitchen seamlessly flows into the great room, featuring a gas fireplace, and offers spectacular mountain views through large picture windows. The formal dining room, located just off the kitchen, is ideal for hosting gatherings. A powder room nearby provides added convenience for guests. Designed for easy living, whether you are entertaining guests or enjoying a quiet evening at home.
This single-level, four-bedroom, four-bath home offers a split-bedroom floor plan with two spacious primary suites. The main suite is a luxurious retreat, complete with a sitting area and fireplace, direct access to the backyard, a spa-like bathroom with dual vanities, jetted tub, separate shower, and a large walk-in closet with custom built-ins. The junior suite, also featuring exterior access, includes a full bathroom with convenient access to the pool.
Enjoy the Arizona weather with the wraparound covered patio, offering multiple seating areas, a built-in gas fireplace, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen featuring a built-in BBQ, sink, and refrigerator. The resort-style backyard features flagstone decking, a pool and spa, and lush, thoughtfully designed landscaping. Elevated for privacy and unparalleled views, this property is a true desert sanctuary.
