Property Description

Set on one of the highest and largest homesites in gated Honey Bee Canyon Estates, this distinctive custom residence blends rustic elegance, old-world character and beautiful Catalina Mountain views. Built in 2018 by David Glinski of Sunset Custom Homes, the 3,552sf home offers 3BR, 3BA + den on a corner lot surrounded by saguaros, natural rock outcroppings & carefully designed desert landscaping. Warm earth-toned stucco, stepped parapets & tile-roofed accents establish the home's Southwestern character. Substantial wood posts, exposed beams & decorative corbels frame sheltered outdoor living spaces, while stone accents and divided-light windows add texture & charm. Sculptural saguaros & thoughtfully placed boulders connect the architecture beautifully to its Sonoran Desert setting. Inside, materials & architectural details selected by the owners create a home rich in warmth and individuality. Terracotta-toned tile flooring, including a striking herringbone pattern in the hallway, complements softly textured walls & substantial wood trim. Arched passageways, deep window recesses & decorative pendant lighting carry the old-world aesthetic throughout. The great room features an impressive ceiling crossed by substantial wood beams & accented with sculpted corbels. A series of tall, arched, divided-light windows welcomes natural light & frames views of the outdoor living spaces. Stone fireplace wall with substantial mantel anchors the room, while built-in display niches provide places for treasured art & collections. Open to the gathering & dining areas, the kitchen continues the home's distinctive craftsmanship. Rich wood cabinetry includes glass-front display cabinets & open shelving, while substantial center island offers seating & generous preparation space. Sculpted plaster range hood with rustic wood accent rises above an exposed-brick backsplash, creating a memorable focal point. Stainless appliances, including Wolf range & travertine prep sink combine everyday functionality with carefully chosen finishes. Wood ceiling beams & recessed lighting complete the inviting space. The attention to detail extends to the bathrooms, where individually selected finishes include patterned decorative tile, vessel-style basins, wall-mounted faucets & distinctive framed mirrors. The primary suite offers private retreat with custom shower, soaking tub & patio access to Sundance hot tub. Currently enjoyed as an art studio, the second bedroom features large picture window framing saguaros, natural boulders & the Catalina Mountains, a view that provides inspiration while feeling like a work of art itself. Separate den offers additional space for an office or quiet retreat. Covered patios with wood ceilings & richly colored pavers provide inviting settings for outdoor dining & relaxation. Arched openings connect the interior to these sheltered spaces, and decorative urn fountain adds another individual touch. Enjoy Catalina Mountain views by day & Oro Valley's city lights from the backyard patio after sunset. Quality extends beyond the visible finishes. Approximately one-foot-thick exterior walls incorporate dual framing & combination of spray foam & blown-in blanket insulation, with additional spray foam at the roof level. Expanded two-car garage with epoxy-coated flooring completes this thoughtfully crafted custom home in Rancho Vistoso.
