Down for three weeks. Stayed at a swank Airbnb in NE Tucson, near the Oro Valley line. This place was formerly a Mediterranean mansion that was split up into the main house (still very large) and three casitas. Ours was the baby of the three. We strolled the neighborhood, it was rural’ish, lots of houses on huge lots, lots of horse properties.
The east facing view put the Catalina mountains in our face. And if we raced over to the west side, we could watch the sun set.
Madeline and Sam came down for a week.
We rotated religiously between hiking, biking The Loop, and playing pickleball.
Spent a fair amount of time thinking about buying a place down this way. This morphed into spending a fair amount of time, shopping with a realtor. Our target changed along the way from a small 2BR condo all the way to a 3BR full house with garage. Go figure. The market was smoking hot, like everywhere else in America. We put a cash offer in one one place, didn’t bid enough lost it. We lost too many showings to count, stuff was flying off the rack in a day. We finally bid over (cash bid) on this place, got it. These pics were pulled straight off the realtor site
