Great opportunity from motivated sellers in the gated community of Fairfield at Rancho Vistoso. Tucked away in the serene and exclusive enclave of gated Fairfield at Rancho Vistoso, a welcoming community of 68 homes, awaits a delightful opportunity: A single story treasure offering a spacious 2549sf of comfortable living, priced at approximately 20% lower per square foot than other properties in Fairfield currently on the market or recently closed, yet with similar amenities. Homes in this neighborhood are rarely available as residents seem to stay for long tenures and feel very comfortable here. The homes are built with Masonry construction and high-quality materials, not often available in a small footprint home, that assures lasting quality and excellent energy efficiency. The entry, with a coffered ceiling, opens to the great room that enjoys abundant natural light through a "wall of windows" and additional clerestory windows, suffusing the space with a joyous welcoming feeling and allowing the outside into your living space. An attractive built-in natural wood entertainment center anchors the great room with spaces for art and book displays. The nearby dining area overlooks the terrace and garden. In the equally well-lit kitchen, GE appliances and generous granite-topped workspaces including an island, and handsome natural wood cabinetry provide a home for the chef(s). Enjoy casual dining at the granite two-level bar or set the table for company in the adjacent dining area. Out in the east-facing garden, there are no worries about the afternoon sun in the summer... you can enjoy relaxing on your brick terrace while enjoying peeks of the Catalina Mountains and picking citrus from the lush backyard trees. Another custom feature is the built-in handsome wood storage unit and bookshelves in the hallway outside the spacious primary suite. That suite opens to the terrace and overlooks the garden, with plantation shutters to control the otherwise abundant natural light. With room for a sitting nook and two generous closets, and an updated bath with split vanities, a make-up vanity, soaking tub and oversized shower with a bench, the primary suite is a true haven. The guest room has an adjacent full bath, with a nearby half-bath for your guests. The carpets are brand-new, and all baths have been recently updated with new attractive tile flooring. A large laundry room, with more natural light, provides great storage and a work sink. A new water heater assures a bounty of hot water for your needs. And that's not all...amenities abound in the neighborhood. Fairfield provides a gorgeous year-round heated community pool and spa with seating, where residents often gather for monthly events. Outside the gates, find the Vistoso Nature Preserve with over 6 miles of concrete walking/biking paths surrounded by greenery. Adjacent Stone Canyon offers memberships that can be either golf or social; both provide entry to exclusive luxury including the private fitness center and lap pool, tennis and pickle ball courts, fine dining and curated wine dinners. The Rancho Vistoso area offers well-maintained roads with broad bike lanes and sidewalks, along with easy access to "The Loop", a multi-use paved trail around the city of Tucson. Oro Valley has multiple neighborhood parks, walking routes and convenient shopping, dining and service opportunities. The Oro Valley Hospital is nearby, as is the Oro Valley Library. Seize this opportunity to reside in an exclusive neighborhood at a price considerably lower per square foot than similar offerings!
