Historic Sam Hughes Charmer. Private yard w fruit trees. Walk to UA.

Enjoy this charming 1931 Sam Hughes 2 bedroom with original floors and hip southwestern art. Close to it all, including the airport and walking distance to UA. Seasonal fruit picking with lemons, pomegranate, fig, nectarine. Private back yard and nice front porch to admire the neighborhood. Very walkable area and convenient to bicycle boulevard. Near newly built neighborhood pickle ball courts and swimming pool in summer.

Sam Hughes joy
We absolutely loved this house and our stay for a week in March ‘25. We could walk to the Tucson Festival of Books, and enjoyed the house and garden very much. Zachary has lovely taste — the house has lots of graceful historic touches and is decorated well, and the garden is inviting and interesting. Lots of helpful amenities to make the stay comfortable — big A!

Charming Home in Sam Hughes Neighborhood
Beautiful and tasteful home on a quiet street and only a mile to UA and 2 miles to the Convention Center. The owner was gracious and was eager to make our stay comfortable.Tastefully appointed interior accented with southwestern art and artifacts. We enjoyed cooking dinner each night and Safeway is a few blocks away.The grounds are pretty with native species abounding.The washer and dryer was handy to allow less clothes packing.

Classic Tucson
This is an amazing house in a great location. I lived in Tucson 20 years ago and I wanted to revisit for two weeks. This house was perfect for that. Quiet. Great energy. I could walk to Tumerico for great food. I plan to book again when I return in late February.

Great Experience
Stayed here for parents weekend at U of A. Very charming historic home. Clean, great AC, great plumbing. Perfect combination of old and new. Friendly and proactive host. Easy check in and check out. Loved that there weren't a bunch of cameras everywhere. Really great experience.

Great location for a charming stay
We loved staying in this charming house for our daughter’s graduation. It was a 12 minute walk to the stadium, even shorter to McHale. We took full advantage of not dealing with parking. Plus Safeway is just down the street. The place was clean and as pictured. Beds were comfortable. The owner was very responsive. An excellent option in the Sam Hughes neighborhood.
