About this property
‘Garden House’ - Beautiful Mid-Century Home
Welcome to your spacious, modern, and carefully furnished 1950's ranch-style home in central Tucson's Garden District. A lush garden with three patio spaces, a chiminea and Weber barbecue are designed so you can get the most of Tucson's sunshine in the winter months. Within 2 min drive of Trader Joe's, the Rillito River Park pathway system, and 10 minutes from the University of Arizona campus. Owners (Michael and Rosanna) are artists and plant lovers that celebrate the culture of the southwest.
This home houses the studio of professional landscape artist Rosanna Marmont and displays a significant collection of her Tucson inspired paintings.
At 1500SF, it has ample room to spread out and make use of the numerous garden patios, a living room and a reading room. Natural lighting and large windows throughout. Bedrooms are private and quiet for your respite.
**All bedsheets are good quality linen (no synthetics) with down comforters and pillows. Wifi and Hulu, Disney Plus and HBO included.
A pond and fountain encourage an urban bird paradise, with the sound of birdsong and tumbling water filtering throughout the property. The three burner Weber grill tapped into the natural gas is a perfect amenity for hosting casual gatherings or dappling in some traditional Mexican style cuisine. The kitchen is fully stocked for all your needs, including good strong coffee.
Empty closets throughout allow guests to stay comfortably and make this home their own.

Rosanna's home is charming, filled with beautiful art she has created and plants a gorgeous outside garden. The kitchen was stocked with spices and perfect for home travel. Rosanna was communicative and helpful throughout our stay - we'd definitely come back to the Garden House.
Host has great communication skills. House was clean and super nice. Nice backyard. Only downside is the neighborhood is not the best. We didn't feel safe walking in the neighborhood after dark. House has great proximity to everything we needed.
Very nice property, the landscaping and backyard are very well done and plenty of space to enjoy. The house is charming, comfortable and the art work is beautiful in every room!
We were in town for a family birthday celebration and booked this home because it had enough rooms and appeared to have nice backyard space. We were blown away with the well appointed inside spaces but the backyard was a little slice of heaven. Highly recommend!
Very cozy backyard.Very convenient location to everything in TucsonWill definitely come backWell, stock kitchen with everything you need and comfy beds
We stay at the Garden House whenever we’re in Tucson, and it never disappoints. The home has every feature and amenity you could want, with a well-stocked kitchen, plenty of linens, and ample closet space. The video projector for TV and streaming is a great touch, and original art decorates every room. We especially enjoyed the multiple outdoor seating areas set in beautiful garden spaces. The host is very communicative and easy to work with. Will be back again!
The Garden House felt like home right from the start. We loved studying each art work. Each expresses a mood, a feeling, and moment in time. The colors of the furnishings, floors and walls and selective decor all seemed drawn from the paintings. The gardens are like an oasis and filled with beautiful plantings. Thank you for the delicious coffee. All was perfect.
We loved the lay and the artwork was fantastic! I had family in from out of town and they loved the location and all the little touches that made this property absolutely fantastic for a Tucson respite.
The house was lovely and so close to Sabino Canyon! The backyard was like its own oasis and the perfect place to relax. Morning coffee next to the water feature was magical. The attention to detail throughout the house was apparent and greatly appreciated. Filtered water, puzzles and weights, the projection TV (amazingly clear!), recycling and beautiful artwork were wonderful touches that made the whole experience even more special. Thank you for sharing your home.
The house was immaculate with easy access, a nice kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms and a beautiful back yard. It was quiet and peaceful and the owner was kind and quick to respond to messages especially when I found myself in a medical emergency after checking in. After several communications the situation was eventually resolved between VRBO, the owner and myself in a manner that I appreciated and was happy with.
We had a great getaway to Tucson and this home met all our needs.Very clean and well appointed! The beds and bedding were probably the most comfortable of any place we have stayed. The check in process was easy as well.
We had a great stay here for two nights. The backyard was the highlight! The indoor and outdoor spaces are wonderfully designed and decorated, and you can tell a lot of care has gone into creating the space. Would highly recommend!
the house was spotless, kitchen very well equipped. the owners artwork hung on every wall and the desert garden was beautiful. owner was extremely responsive.
Wonderful home in a central location. Very clean and thoughtfully equipped. Especially enjoyed the projection screen for our nightly movie. Highly recommended!
This home is lovely inside and out. The gardens, artwork, and comfortable furnishings helped make our Tucson getaway wonderful. The house was super clean and cozy, and the owners were responsive and helpful.
This home was perfect for our stay! Communication was a breeze and the owners are really pleasant. We loved everything about it, especially the back yard. It was cozy and relaxing to listen to the fountain and birds. We would love to stay here again next year
I am a professional artist living and working out of my home in Tucson Arizona. I am originally from New Zealand but have most recently immigrated from Canada to the United States. My husband Michael is a third generation Tucsonan.
I fell in love with Tucson when passing through. Arizona skies, desert, and people soon my became the muse of landscape paintings and have influenced my work ever since.
The flow of travelers and snow birders through Tucson is a part of why this city is so dynamic, multi-cultural, and open minded. Being a host on air-bnb allows me to play my own small part in facilitating this.
