1711 N Placita Tuberia · Apartment for Rent

Bordering nearly 100,000 acres of protected desert, this 3 bed, 2 bath, 2,101 sqft home on Tucson’s West Side offers walk-out access to Tucson Mountain Park and Saguaro National Park — right from your backyard. Set on 1.16 acres, the property is surrounded by natural beauty and regularly visited by deer, javelina, bobcats, coyotes, quail, roadrunners, and more. On clear summer nights, you can see the Milky Way from your patio. Inside, the home features a bright living space with picture windows, a kitchen with a breakfast bar, and a rec room with a wet bar. Large windows throughout the home let in natural light while two AC units keep things cool during the summer. The primary bathroom includes a sunken tiled shower. A covered back patio offers views of the surrounding desert and mountains, and a small waterfall pond in the backyard attracts wildlife and adds to the natural desert setting. Located just 10 minutes from groceries and restaurants, 15 minutes to downtown, and 18 minutes to the University of Arizona, this quiet West Side location offers the best of both worlds — privacy and proximity. Close to Gates Pass and the Sonoran Desert Museum, it’s a rare find for nature lovers who don’t want to be far from the city.
