About This Home
Set against a dramatic backdrop of the Catalina Mountains, this architect-designed residence by Rob Robinette in Sabino Mountain is defined by its extraordinary, unobstructed views--capturing sweeping, panoramic ranges, glowing sunsets, and distant city lights. Sited on approximately 2.8 acres, the setting is both striking and serene, offering a constant connection to Tucson's natural landscape. For those seeking true Foothills views, this setting delivers views rarely available. Outdoor living is thoughtfully designed to embrace the scenery, anchored by a generous covered patio with misting system, built-in BBQ, fire pit, and hot tub--creating a seamless environment for both entertaining and quiet enjoyment. A front patio offers an additional vantage point with elevated valley views, while decorative lighting and water features enhance the ambiance throughout the property. Inside, beautifully scaled interiors are filled with natural light, with large-format windows framing the surrounding vistas. Nearly every room captures spectacular views, with the great room--living and dining--defined by elevated ceilings and expansive glazing that frame the Catalina Mountains as a constant focal point. The floor plan flows effortlessly across well-proportioned living spaces, anchored by a well-appointed kitchen featuring double ovens, dual wine refrigerators, and seamless integration into the main gathering areas. A gas fireplace warms the living room, while integrated sound and automated exterior sunshades elevate everyday comfort. The residence offers four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, including a flexible fourth bedroom or office with Murphy bed. The primary suite is privately positioned, offering equally spectacular mountain views, while all bedrooms feature walk-in closets. Thoughtfully integrated storage is found throughout, complemented by an oversized three-car garage with built-in workbench and substantial storage capacity. Recent updates include three HVAC systems (recently replaced), a newer water heater, and updated interior blinds (April 2026). Additional features include whole-home water purification and softening systems, enhanced security and fire alarm systems. A pool design is available, offering future expansion potential. Located within the gated community of Sabino Mountain Estates, residents enjoy privacy, access to scenic desert trails, Canyon Ranch, and close proximity to the Catalina Foothills' dining, shopping, and top-rated schools.
