4600 Ecm Townhome

Short-term furnished rental in the beautiful Catalina Foothills, available until end October, possibly November. Soak up the Arizona sun by day, then watch the sun set and the city lights come up while grilling on your private patio by night, in this airy gem of a home overlooking Tucson (and above the pollution line). This is a comfortable, fully-furnished townhome, full of lovely light yet shaded from the hot sun. It boasts dark wood floors, a very large dining table, comfortable couches, and fast wifi. And because I'm chemically sensitive, it is largely scent-, perfume-, and chemical-free (which I will ask you to help me maintain during your tenancy). My home is situation in a quiet neighborhood with very friendly neighbors, access to 2 community pools, and a short walk from the iconic DeGrazia Gallery. Walk or drive (as little as 3 minutes) to a range of restaurants from breakfast nooks to top-rated Italian and Mexican restaurants and bars; 5 minutes to Finger Rock Trailhead; 10 minutes from 3 of the city's top golf courses; 10 minutes to hiking in the renowned Sabino Canyon. Within half an hour you can easily access almost all the cultural events and outdoor activities that Tucson has to offer, and the Mexican border is just 1.5 hours south, with all that lovely country has to offer (including high-quality, low-cost dentistry). Plus the community itself has a network of walking trails in the surrounding washes that you can access by walking out your front door if you just need a break from the computer. Inside the house, there are many pluses to make your stay more comfortable, as I leave this outfitted largely as it is when I'm here. All you need are your clothes and personal items. You'll have access to my very comfortable, recently-renovated front room and bathroom, with views of the Catalina Mountains, specifically Finger Rock. Only my room (in which I'll store my personal items) will be off-limits. I do not allow smoking -- of anything -- in or near my home, and because of my chemical sensitivity will ask that you not use strong perfumes which will soak into mattresses, bedding, and cushions, nor plug-ins, nor toxic cleaners. My cleaner (who understands my preferences) will come in monthly while you are here. I will also ask that you take your shoes off inside to protect my wood floors, and I do not allow pets or weapons in my home. Thank you for respecting my preferences.
