2109 E Calle Alta Vista

This is not your typical Tucson rental.

I feel so lucky to have bought this sweet little house before the real estate boom. It's one of the smallest houses in an upscale neighborhood of well maintained brick ranch homes from the '50s. It's located on over one-quarter acre, with Connor Park on Glenn Street just beyond the back fence. Albertson's, Ace Hardware, Lovin' Spoonful, Beyond Bread, Yoga Oasis, are all just blocks away. Walkscore.com calls it "Very Walkable: Most errands can be accomplished on foot".

Two bedrooms and one bath in 959 square feet. The floor plan is here. Unlike many Central Tucson houses, there are no ugly additions here. One car carport. Central air conditioning and gas heat. Gorgeous flagstone fireplace in the living room. Dining area open to the kitchen, which has refinished pine cabinets and dazzling Verde Tunis granite counters.
Black gas stove, refrigerator and dishwasher. Laundry room for your washer and dryer.

Ceramic tile on all floors. Rich yellow interior paint.
To rent it, you need good credit and landlord references. No smoking, no pets. The rent is $1,625. If you pay the rent before the first of the month, you can pay $1,615. The deposit is $1,725. Equal Housing Opportunity.

I am the owner/agent and property manager.

This home is rented through June 30, 2025.
