Other things to note:
This desert home is situated in a peaceful neighborhood where neighbors enjoy the quiet of their spacious properties. We ask that you carefully review the directions we provide so as to make finding our home as easy as possible and avoid driving down the wrong driveway. You'll find our home at the end of a winding, scenic drive up into the foothills of the Tucson Mountains. The last quarter mile of driving is down a dusty private dirt road, giving the trip the feel of a real adventure!
