Property Description
Privately set on over three-quarters of an acre, the property captures sweeping panoramic views of the Catalina Mountains, Tucson Mountains, & A Mountain, along with sparkling city lights that emerge at dusk. Sakellar was known for his distinctive, architectural language featuring dramatic floor-to-ceiling narrow glass windows set into living area corners, blurring the boundary between interior & landscape. His thoughtful use of natural materials is evident .. throughout, with striking rock walls carried both inside and out, complemented by sculptural rock fireplaces that anchor the home's living areas.
The residence unfolds across three subtly separated levels, connected by short transitions that create spatial interest while maintaining an open, cohesive flow. Flagstone flooring extends throughout the living areas and continues seamlessly out to the covered patio, reinforcing the home's connection to the desert environment. From there, it flows through a wooden gate and gently down to the pool and inviting Kiva-style fireplace--creating a natural progression from interior living to outdoor retreat.
Outdoors, a resort-style pool creates a private setting framed by expansive desert and mountain vistas--an ideal environment for entertaining or enjoying Tucson's renowned sunsets.
The sellers have carefully maintained the home, ensuring its systems and functions remain in good working order while preserving its architectural integrity.
Ideally located near everyday conveniences and some of Tucson's most desirable destinations--including Whole Foods Market, Trader Joe's, and La Encantada with its collection of premier dining and shopping--this property offers the perfect balance of accessibility and seclusion, tucked away just far enough to provide a true sense of tranquility.
Over the course of his career, Sakellar produced an exceptional body of work, recognized not only for the quality and innovation of his designs, but also for the lasting influence he had on the many young architects who trained and worked alongside him. His contributions to the profession were honored with his elevation to Fellow of the American Institute of Architects (FAIA), one of the highest distinctions in architecture.
Faithful to its mid-century roots yet timeless in appeal, this residence offers a rare combination of architectural pedigree, natural beauty, and livable comfort--an exceptional opportunity for those who value design, history, and the Tucson lifestyle.
