About this home

Welcome to ''Casa de los Pelicanos'', a magnificent Foothills estate like no other that exudes timeless old-world charm and understated elegance from the minute you arrive and will captivate you at every turn. This home has a strong pedigree, owned & cherished over the past 60 years by only two well-respected prominent families; each known for their refined taste in art & design and love of the desert southwest which is evident everywhere you look. True to its roots, this home also embodies the Old Foothills lifestyle to perfection. Situated at the end of a long circular gravel driveway on an exceptional cul-de-sac view lot, the home is embraced by the breathtaking Catalina Mountains, with the iconic 'Finger Rock' framed perfectly in view, and mature desert landscaping accentuated by rock lined pathways meandering throughout the property which lead to the natural arroyo & wildlife corridor below giving you a sense of total privacy and a deep connection with nature. As you enter the home, you are welcomed into the foyer by the original hand crafted arched double doors and is showcased by an antique grand piano, beautiful original art and mahogany French doors leading to the rear terrace. The inviting living room features floor to ceiling windows framing the impressive views, a mesquite mantled fireplace, beamed ceilings and beautifully preserved original concrete tile floors. The spacious primary suite is a 5-star private retreat with a romantic fireplace, cozy reading area, luxurious bathroom w/spa tub, huge walk-in closet with custom walnut built-ins, glass French doors and a wall of windows looking out at one of the most enchanting backyards in all of Tucson. Designed for outdoor living & entertaining, the home features luxurious al'fresco living spaces, charming intimate patios and lush mature landscaped grounds complete with a bi-level black bottom pebble-tec pool & newer top of the line spa- an oasis that evokes the spirit of Santa Barbara or San Miguel de Allende. Inside the home, you will find a library lined with mesquite bookcases and hand carved wood shutters, three spacious guest suites sure to please the most discriminating family or guests along with magnificent hand carved doors throughout. The kitchen features newer stainless appliances, hand painted tiles & was designed for a diva who didn't like to cook. It's cozy and charming but the space could be expanded into something spectacular if the chef in you so desires. The home is filled with quality antiques, original artwork and authentic antique Navajo rugs that have all been curated over the years to create a magical feel that would be hard to ever duplicate again. This is a rare, once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase this home "turn-key", fully furnished as you see it. What would normally take decades to achieve can be had as a package deal and you only need bring your suitcase and checkbook! This home is range priced from $3,250,000 unfurnished to $3,500,000 with all furnishings, artwork and accessories included. Don't miss this extraordinary opportunity to own one of the finest homes ever to be offered in the 'Old Foothills'. Its convenient location in the heart of the Foothills makes this home close to world class golf, shopping and dining- only a short 10 min drive to UA, & 5 min to La Encantada and La Paloma C.C.
