Description

Centrally located in the Historic Ft. Lowell District, and privately set within the highly regarded ''Adobes Del Bosque'' enclave, this residence offers a composed and intentional expression of regional architecture. Sculpted plaster walls, mature native landscaping, and a measured entry sequence establish a sense of arrival that feels both restrained and enduring, underscoring a home rooted in craftsmanship and legacy. The interior is organized around proportion, texture, and light. Substantial 16 inch thick mud adobe walls provide a sense of permanence, while exposed timber beams introduce warmth and rhythm overhead. Terracotta scored concrete floors extend throughout the home, unifying the spaces and lending a quiet continuity that supports both daily life and moments of retreat. The main living room is centered around a masonry fireplace that feels integral to the structure. Carefully placed windows are deeply recessed within the adobe walls, offering framed views outward while preserving privacy through protective courtyard walls. Throughout the day, shifting light animates the plaster surfaces and wood elements, creating subtle changes in tone and atmosphere. The kitchen and dining spaces are practical yet refined, with custom millwork and formed concrete countertops offering durability and restraint, while a central island anchors the room for gathering and preparation. The dining area opens directly to the south facing covered patio, allowing meals and entertaining to move easily between interior and exterior spaces. Sleeping and working areas are thoughtfully separated from the main living areas. The primary suite occupies the southwestern end of the home, offering privacy and generous scale, with a bath that continues the palette of adobe, plaster, concrete, and wood. An additional en-suite bedroom is seamlessly integrated, ideal for family or guests while preserving the clarity of the overall plan. A third bedroom features built-in bookcases and an integrated desk, allowing it to function effortlessly as a bedroom, office, or flexible living space. The covered patio functions as a true extension of the home, defined by substantial beams and enclosing walls that create shade and comfort year round. Beyond, the backyard opens to a protected preservation area where the land remains intentionally untouched. Winding quietly through this landscape is the historic Corbett Irrigation Ditch, an early lifeline that once carried water from Tanque Verde Creek to the old Fort Lowell. This enduring ribbon of history adds meaning to the setting, connecting the home to the earliest patterns of settlement and cultivation in the region. Encompassing 2, 671 Sq Ft of living space, this residence presents a rare opportunity to acquire a thoughtfully designed desert home that values privacy, material integrity, and quiet confidence within one of the area's most desirable communities.
