Welcome to Cereus Vista. The views are spectacular and the Night Blooming Cereus is plentiful. Enjoy a beautiful sunset from the patio or hot tub and your morning coffee or lunch under the breezeway that is designed to move air between the covered patio.
This beautiful desert home boasts a main home with an open kitchen living room with exposed beams and a kiva fireplace great for family gatherings. Spacious bedroom with comfy king bed. Master bath with walk-in shower. Across the open courtyard, there are two separate one-bedroom Casitas. DeGrazia casita has a king bed and full bath. The second casita has a full bed and a full bath- perfect for families or couples with complete privacy (not suitable for small children). Tile throughout the entire home. Washer and dryer located in the main house- with a fully stocked kitchen. Everything you will need to have an amazing stay. Ample parking on the curved driveway. There are cameras outside by the garage area. If you are looking to disconnect and enjoy the Arizona desert this is the home for you. Plan to arrive during the daylight hours as the home is remote and much easier to find before sunset. Do not cross the arroyo if it is raining.
Wildlife abounds at Cereus Vista so be on the lookout for native animals, especially the javelina, jackrabbits, and cottontails. Just 20 minutes from downtown Tucson. This semiprivate home is a peaceful retreat while still being close to services, restaurants and our local treasure, the Saguaro National Monument.
