Description

Are you ready for some serious ''Mad Men'' vibes? Located in the Sam Hughes neighborhood, Villa Catalina is the only mid-century modern 55+ community listed in the Tucson National Historic Registry and offers a living experience that you simply can't find elsewhere in Tucson. This upper level unit has two convenient entry points--an interior entry that opens into the living space (and offers a stairlift for accessibility) and an exterior steel staircase that leads directly into the kitchen. Featuring two bedrooms and two baths, this 1409 square foot condo still has many of its original elements, affording the new owners the option to keep a vintage look or remodel into a more ''today'' aesthetic. The large, open living space with a balcony offers expansive windows to the front and side showcasing the hustle and bustle of the street below against the backdrop of the Catalina Mountains. Flooded with natural light, this room has many options for furniture arrangement and a built-in display cabinet with accent lighting. The efficient kitchen is darling and features a clever flip-up table that's perfect for a quick meal or extra workspace. Maintaining its MCM look but balanced with modern conveniences, the kitchen offers a vibrant aqua blue tile backsplash, a matching vintage oven, dishwasher, microwave, modern electric cooktop, fridge and white quartz counters. The large primary bedroom is at the rear of the unit, offering its own full bath, private balcony and a wall length pass-thru closet. This room's balcony offers new owners a wonderful spot for pleasurable birdsong filled mornings and overlooks a canopy of mature citrus trees. A generously sized second bedroom has built-in shelving and storage, making an ideal study or guest room. This bedroom is serviced by a hall bath that still has its "Mamie Pink" shower, counter and backsplash tiles as well as the original cabinetry with an apron sink. No need for the laundromat--there is a "grandfathered in" laundry closet with a stackable washer/dryer in the unit. The lush common areas are beautifully maintained, boasting mature trees and other plantings. This complex also features two pools, shuffleboard courts and a putting green. Your new home also includes one car space in a shared garage. Centrally located, close to shopping/dining and just moments from the University of Arizona, Banner Medical Center and El Con Shopping Center, this condo is also under ten minutes by car to the iconic Tucson Botanical Gardens and Reid Park Zoo.
