Part of the Catalina Foothills. This is where I
live. We found one of the last buildable lots, and constructed
our home here in 1987. We were taken with the nature feel of the
Tucson neighborhood with its uncurbed, un-sidewalked, winding,
spaghetti-bowl-like roads, some dual lane, some not. My husband
said the winding, hilly roads reminded him of some of the canyon
areas in the Hollywood Hills. Most homes here have either awesome
mountain or city views, and some have both.
The 470 Tucson homes here are almost all mature,
having been built between 1960 and 1985. However, many of these
have been remodeled and updated by new owners. Almost all the
home-sites are close to an acre in size, some larger, so there
can be a lot of elbow room between you and your neighbor.
In Skyline Bel Air you can expect to pay anywhere
from $400,000 to $750,000 depending on the home's age and the
views. People in Tucson charge big-time extra for superior views.
Skyline Bel Air is in the Catalina Foothills School
District #16, which some people feel is one of the best in the
state of Arizona.
