Live in the Foothills. Let the guest house pay your mortgage. Set on a private 0.83-acre lot in the Catalina Foothills, this 3BR/2BA burnt adobe ranch features Mexican tile floors, a wood-burning fireplace, and a 2020-built detached guest house generating $1,500-$2,500/month as a short-term rental. Mountain views, no HOA, RV parking. Proximity to La Encantada, Sabino Canyon, hiking trails, and Tucson's best dining -- at a price point that hasn't existed in 85718 for years. A pre-listing inspection revealed a slope/grading issue estimated at $15K to correct. The price has been reduced by $20,000 to reflect this upfront -- fully disclosed, no surprises in escrow. Move-in ready. Priced accordingly. Cash or conventional only. Airbnbs averaging 4.9 stars and peak-season demand running October through April, this structure alone can generate $1,500-$2,500/month in rental income -- offsetting your mortgage from day one. Use it for guests, a home office, multigenerational living, or keep it as a cash-flowing rental. That flexibility is increasingly hard to find in this zip code. The 0.83-acre lot backs to natural desert, giving you privacy and mountain views without HOA restrictions. RV parking is available. The property is being sold AS-IS, priced accordingly, and with a straightforward conventional or cash purchase -- no short sale, no delays, no drama. Proximity to La Encantada, Sabino Canyon, hiking trails, and Tucson's best dining -- at a price point that hasn't existed in 85718 for years.
