In the heart of West University, the storied ''Rock House'' stands as a rare gem of Tucson's architectural heritage. Lovingly restored, this historic residence is built from volcanic rock quarried from iconic ''A'' Mountain, a testament to enduring craftsmanship. Inside, the original maple wood floors are complemented by finely preserved wood posts and built-in features that echo the home's early 20th-century roots. A striking fireplace anchors the living space, flanked by custom built-ins. The kitchen is a chef's delight--thoughtfully updated with a five-burner range, glass-front cabinetry, mesquite floating shelves, and recessed lighting, all while maintaining the home's classic character. The built-in library adds a touch of sophistication, while the updated hall bath serves the second bedroom. The primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with an ensuite bath featuring a large walk-in shower, a separate soaking tub, and expansive walk-in closets. Comfort is ensured with ceiling-mounted mini splits, and the main house boasts a brand-new roof. A detached guest house completes the property, featuring its own brick fireplace, honed concrete floors, a kitchenette, full bath, and a spacious closet with a built-in dresser, ideal for visitors or extended stays. Fully walled and private, the home sits across from a cherished Catalina park and is recognized on both the City and National Historic Registers. Owner-occupants benefit from a generous 35-45% property tax reduction. Off street parking in your garage-port. Just a short walk from the University of Arizona, 4th Avenue, downtown, and the Modern Streetcar, the Rock House offers the rare opportunity to own a piece of Tucson history in one of its most vibrant and walkable neighborhoods.
