Great Stay in Tucson
The house was very comfortable; we loved the open spaces and the ping-pong table got a lot of use. Overall, the house allowed us to relax in our downtime and that was very much appreciated. The neighborhood also seemed quiet and safe and we were able to get out for a walk or run for some exercise.

Why they chose this property

Samos is a quiet neighborhood, but it's close to all the action. Centrally located, 1 mile from the UfoA. 5 minutes to downtown. Walking distance to the Campbell Ave corridor with loads of restaurants, shopping, salons, coffee shops, and more. Great neighborhood for walking your dogs! Mountain Ave is exceptional for biking. Ideal spot!

What makes this property unique

This is one of the most unique homes in Tucson, and certainly in the area. Our roof deck offers a 360 degree unencumbered view of the city. Mountain views by day and city lights at night. It is a must see!
