1300 S Lavonne Way. Now THIS is a Sweet Desert Home!


I am so excited about my new listing in Tucson Park West 3, which is where my Tucson Mountain home is located. Just as it is at my house, the back yard of 1300 S Lavonne Way is a wildlife paradise. Very private, with abundant birds, desert vegetation, javelinas, bobcats and coyotes.
The house is spectacular, too. Lots of upgrades and color.
The beautiful kitchen has refaced cabinets and sliding drawers.
Gorgeous oak floors in the living room complement the warmth of the fireplace, which has a custom-made mesquite mantle. A dining ell is off the living room.
The current owners use the dining ell for their media room, and use the family room for dining so they can enjoy nature in the back yard, just beyond the sliding glass door and the tranquil back porch.

Dual cooling and dual paned windows. Raised planters are ready for you to plant your summer vegetables. Two car garage! The interactive floor plan is here. Move the furniture icons around to see how your life would fit into this home.

This fabulous neighborhood is only fifteen minutes from the university, which is closer than most of Central Tucson is to UA. Abundant hiking trails, plus the amenities of Starr Pass Resort. There is no other place like this in this price range in Tucson.


This Sweet Desert Home sold for $145,000 on July 29.
