¡Hola!
I'm Tony Ray Baker with Tierra Antigua Realty.
And I'm Darren Jones with Tierra Antigua Realty. Welcome to 5350 North Mount Lemmon Short Road. Tony Ray, tell us more about this beautiful property.
I will. This is a gorgeous property sitting up on the base of Mount Lemmon. So if you've driven to Mount Lemmon, you couldn't help but see this house as you're going up the road because it, it demands your attention. It's modern, it's all glass. It was designed by a famous architect named Will Bruder, and he's done a lot of homes and commercial buildings up in Scottsdale. If you Google Will Bruder, you'll find him. He does amazing work. And one of the cool things about Will Bruder is that I read that— I can't verify, obviously, but I read this about him— that he is a self-made architect and has become very famous for this kind of work. So I don't know that there's any other Will Bruder homes. I researched everywhere trying to find it. I can't find any other ones in Tucson. That doesn't mean they're not here, but this one is here and it is now for sale. So it is worth coming up and seeing.
Well, they certainly couldn't have positioned it any more perfectly for the views here.
Yeah, the views are stunning. So we feel like we're— I feel like I'm on a spaceship. At nighttime I've been here and It feels like you're floating above the earth because it's so high up and you see all the city lights below. So it feels like you're on this big spaceship flying across the city. And then— Yeah, coming in for a landing, maybe. But the really cool thing too is that the way the living room and the kitchen sit, it actually could be the command center on a spaceship. It's just got that bigness to it. It's really amazing.
That's right.
Yeah. So why don't we beam you over to the kitchen? And then you can show us the kitchen.
Want to beam up? Bzzt! Hi, welcome to Mission Control. This is the main kitchen, and from here you have amazing views of downtown, the entire valley, and downtown Tucson. This is a smaller kitchen but has major, major storage. There's lots of cabinetry and lots of drawers.. It also has a double stainless steel sink. So the kitchen comes equipped with all new appliances, a high energy efficient quiet Bosch dishwasher, a double door refrigerator, new microwave, stovetop, and oven. So now let's go find Tony Ray Baker.
Okay, so one of the beautiful things about this home is it has two master suites, one on each end of the house, so there's complete privacy for each suite. Right outside this door is an observation deck, and one of my favorite— this is probably my favorite room of the house because it looks at the mountain here. So you would get the snow-capped mountains in the wintertime in your view, which is beautiful. And then right out here is that same view that you had from the living room, which is the city lights, and it feels like you're just above the top of the world here. It's just— this is an amazing bedroom. The other one has similar views as well, but it does not get those mountain peaks, which is really cool from behind. Okay, so coming from that bedroom that I love with the snow-capped mountain peak view, right? On here you have the mechanical systems and you have a washer-dryer area, and then right to the right here there's an actual den which also has city views, of course, and another guest bathroom. And then right in front of me is another master suite, which we're gonna head into now. Alright, so now I'm at the east side bedroom, the, the second master bedroom suite, and I have another door to my right which goes out onto another private little patio courtyard, and it actually goes down a few steps and it arrives in the area of that living room that you were in originally, and it has all those beautiful views for sitting outside and enjoying the city lights and so forth. But one of the cool things here about this side is I'm looking at the Rincon Mountains and I get to see moonrise and sunrise from this bedroom. So it's beautiful because you watch that, uh, those orange moons and those crescent and stuff that come up over the mountains, you get to watch those from this point of view. So this is a beautiful, uh, moon— I'll call this the moonrise bedroom. And same thing though, this suite has its own bathroom, as does the other suite on the other end of the house. So next, let's go find Darren. I want to show you the garage, which has got its own workshop. Dude, can you show us the garage?
I'd be happy to. This is a great garage. It's huge. It's 3 cars, so you have a garage door for 2 cars, an additional door for one, plus there's tons of storage space as well as this great work area here with views of the mountains. How many garages can you say that about? This is really a great house. We love the modern lines. We love the position and the views. It has a great layout and it's a fantastic home.
