Description

An ideal 2 bedroom upper level condo in Sam Hughes--light, bright, and turn-key, with unbeatable southern exposure, winter sun, and a private balcony with sunset views. Standing just across Campbell/6th from the University, but enjoying a unique orientation that gives it a feel of being as much a part of Sam Hughes as it is part of campus life, it's hard to imagine a better combination of convenience, location, and charm than this in a condo. The interior is as light, airy, and spacious as any you'll see, brightened immeasurably by that all-day southern winter sun. With a private balcony, and a second-floor front porch that tops its own individual staircase, see why those who've lived here say that this condo stands apart.

Sam Hughes Place at the Corner is one of the most sought-after spots in the University area, and with good reason: incredibly close to campus, just a five minute walk to cheer on the Wildcats on the gridiron or in hoops... with shopping, casual dining, and both campus life and Tucson's most charming neighborhood all right at your doorstep. With a chance to fix housing costs for years to come in a prime location, and retain the potential to be an investment property long into the future, it makes perfect sense for families of students who have even just a couple years left, medical students, faculty/staff or investors who want to secure an imminently rentable property that could one day be a wildcat den for future generations. The ideal spot in one of the best condo complexes in Tucson, you'll see why those that have lived here have decided that this is, unofficially, the best unit in the development. It's the only 2 Bedroom unit on the property that enjoys a private south-facing balcony patio with unobstructed views AND its own individual stairwell to an additional covered front porch patio. With no upstairs neighbors, unobstructed sunrise and sunset views, and full winter sun pouring into the living areas, this unit truly is outstanding. The interiors sparkle. Stainless steel appliances (including an under cabinet wine fridge), laminate flooring through the living areas, berber carpet in the bedrooms, and a refreshing light/bright color palette that make living here a dream. From every part of the living space, one enjoys the views to the south, and sun all day long through fall, winter, and spring (but with some relief from the summer sun as it tracks to the north, and away from the primary windows.) An open floor plan, uniting the living room, dining space, and kitchen around an island perfect for serving, help to make this condo live bigger than one might expect. The lofted ceilings help to add to this sense of spaciousness throughout. But too often "light, bright, and airy" are mistaken for "cold"--this place is anything but that. With the lights turned down and a gas fire in the corner fireplace, it's a perfect spot to wind down at the end of the day. The large primary bedroom enjoys eastern views of the sunrise over the Rincons, looking out over the rooftops and tree canopies of Sam Hughes. The primary bedroom also enjoys a spacious walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath with a large tub as well as a shower, not to mention dual vanities. The second bedroom is an ideal office, for the resident who only uses the primary as a bedroom. With its own private access balcony that's large enough for an outdoor desk, or lounge furniture, one could easily combine work time with one's time in the sun. This south-facing balcony offers perfect sunset views, too, not to mention "A" mountain fireworks in July and at the New Year. Relatively new washer and dryer units, located in the closet adjacent to the hall bath, help make life here super convenient. It's hard to overstate how ideal this location is for UofA fans. With short walks to Arizona Stadium for Football, and McKale Center for basketball, this could be the perfect pied-a-terre for Wildcat fans who love to support the 'Cats in person, who want a walkable place where they can host before the game. It's also a fantastic place for out-of-town Wildcats fans to have the option to stay instead of making the drive back, especially after night games. Though ideally situated close to campus, it's remarkable how quiet this place can be. Situated as the only unit on the south-facing side of the building, it enjoys its own individual stairwell, which really accentuates the feeling of being a home apart. Included in the HOA fees are: water and sewer, gas (to the fireplace), trash/recycling, and all exterior and common area maintenance. The HOA also contracts for a security guard who patrols during hours of darkness. The unit also claims two full-time reserved, numbered, covered parking spaces. Not only that, but it also has an exterior storage locker, located directly under the front porch at the plaza/sidewalk level. Large enough to accommodate several storage bins, outdoor gear, and luggage, it functions much like an outdoor storage shed might. With those two reserved covered parking spots, there's never the worry about the timing of on-street parking or being "blocked in" that seems to be so common in so many off-campus living situations. Condo living, with the association responsible for all of the exterior maintenance, roof, and common areas, and the guarantee of covered parking year-round, just add to the elements that make living here so much easier than in an older house. All the locational benefits of living in Sam Hughes, without the hassles that often accompany that "vintage". 4 min drive to Banner UMC (15 minute Bike) 15 min drive to Tucson International 6 min drive to Hi Corbett Field, Reid Park 5 min BIKE to light rail at 2nd St/Highland and less than half-mile WALK each to: Arizona stadium for Football McKale Center for Basketball Hillenbrand Aquatic Center Flora's Market Run (6th and Tucson
