8741 E Woodland Road

Description

This truly magical ranch hacienda is a once-in-a-generation offering on the highly treasured Woodland Road in the heart of the lush Tanque Verde Valley. It is set apart from anything typically found in or around Tucson. Greeted by a beautiful gated entrance with a long meandering paved drive through towering mature trees and verdant pastureland, creating a sense of arrival that immediately conveys seclusion, serenity, and rarity. Here, the landscape feels almost otherworldly--cool, green, and timeless--yet remains remarkably close to the conveniences of town. The masonry residence encompasses 5,031 square feet of refined Southwestern elegance, thoughtfully designed for both gracious living and an intimate retreat. With five bedrooms and four baths, the home offers generous scale without sacrificing warmth. A true chef's kitchen with a large island anchors the living spaces, while three fireplaces add character and ambiance throughout. Multiple patios extend the living experience outdoors, framing spectacular mountain views and inviting year-round enjoyment of the exceptional desert climate. A sparkling pool and spa complete the resort-like atmosphere, ideal for both entertaining and quiet reflection. Automobile and hobby enthusiasts will appreciate the exceptional garage capacity, with two separate garages accommodating up to ten vehicles--an uncommon and highly valuable feature. Equally impressive are the equestrian facilities, which rival those of much larger ranches: a well-appointed three-stall barn with individual large turnouts, a tack room with a convenient half bath, a large riding arena, round pen and a dedicated hay barn. Every element has been carefully considered for both functionality and comfort. All of this is set on an extraordinary seven acres--land that is virtually impossible to replicate in this region. There are very few larger horse properties in town. This parcel has actually been subdivided into two 3 plus acre parcels, each with its own address for possible future building. Five rich, grass pastures are surrounded with classic pipe-rail fencing and irrigated by an excellent private well with coveted Irrigation Grandfathered Water Rights. Massive shade trees provide a park-like setting, while a fantastic, well built treehouse adds a touch of charm and nostalgia rarely seen in properties of this caliber. With no HOA restrictions, the estate offers true freedom of ownership. This is the best of all worlds: extreme privacy, clean country living, and a pastoral environment that feels far removed from the city--yet only five minutes from dining, shopping, medical and everyday amenities. This is a property of profound beauty and tranquility, offering a lifestyle and setting that is simply not available elsewhere in the Tucson area.
