About this property
Artsy Historic Downtown 2BR w large backyard & private Salt Water Spa Pool
There is a reason this house is loved by so many guests! This vintage home retains much of the original charm from when it was first built in 1916, but with just the right amount of modern updates to enjoy. Located in the Dunbar Spring Neighborhood, one of Tucson's first neighborhoods, adjacent to downtown and just 2 miles from University of Arizona, this 950 square foot home has one bedroom with a king-size deluxe bed for maximum comfort, a second bedroom with a queen bed and a pullout couch in the living room. It is decorated with a mix of antiques and modern pieces and contains quite a bit of art from latin and local artists. Heating, cooling and hot water tank are all new and energy efficient. Carport accommodates 2 cars and the driveway could readily house an RV. The kitchen has a full size gas range/oven and refrigerator and freezer. The kitchen is completely outfitted with everything you would need to cook/ bake at home, complete with pots, pans, bakeware, dish ware, toaster, blender, indoor grill, coffee maker, french press, expresso maker, a full array of herbs and spices. There is a full size washer and dryer. The bathroom has an oversize shower with 3 shower heads. There are 2 flatscreen TV's, one in the living room, one in the main bedroom, which also has a DVD player. The kitchen has a glass table with four chairs and outside on the covered, private patio, is another table and 4 chairs for outdoor dining. The outdoor area is gated, private and ample filled with lovely exotic plants and the best part? The salt water spa pool with jets! But the back yard!!!! This is one of the biggest highlights of our home! With the outdoor dining on the covered porch, the cozy outdoor fireplace with seating, they sound of the wind chimes, the bistro area, the safe and gated salt water spa/pool with outdoor seating, this is a place to recharge as a single traveler, enjoy romantically as couple, have a blast as a family, or host a party or gathering with friends (the former owners told us once there was a party out there that housed 150 people!). There is a lovely cactus garden, outdoor bar, outdoor mini 'fridge, grill and twinkling outdoor lighting to enjoy your evenings! Location: Take the Sun link streetcar downtown to one of the many restaurants in the area, shops and art galleries. Just minutes to super fun 4th avenue and University of Arizona. Hiking spots are as close as 15-20 minutes away!

Really loved this property and the beauty, convenience, and privacy that it afforded our visit to Tucson. Spa pool was amazing, rooms clean, and kitchen very well stocked with everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again.
The entire place was just what we were looking for! It was quaint with a private heated pool & allowed for some enjoyable & relaxing downtime in a dessert setting.
The landscaping and pool/hot tub very relaxing in a quiet neighborhood! Uber drivers were always available in less than 10 min. Excellent restaurants, beautiful town and the people were very nice! Would definitely stay here again 🌵🌺
Very convenient to U of A. Loved the yard and pool. Small, but worked perfectly for the four of us. Neighborhood is a little older but we felt comfortable walking to campus, even at night. We will be back to visit our son and will definitely keep this place in mind!
Loved the home and the outdoor living space is fantastic with the salt water hot tub/pool, back patio, and lovely landscaping. Great for a pet, the fenced in back yard provided ample space for outside time. The location is excellent for spending time in the heart of downtown and the U of A campus. Everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Hosts were fantastic and very easy to work with. Would definitely stay here again!
The owners were great to work with! When we needed to get in touch, they were available. The adobe house was perfect with a lot of character. The back yard was amazing. The Spa/pool was used daily and nightly. We could not have been happier spending 17 nights in Tucson. We will be back in Tucson many more times and hope Dunbar Springs is available. Thank you both for making this trip, great!
The property was clean great fenced in outdoor space with pool.
Location was close to everything in city including restaurants, Tucson Museum of Art. I was in town for wedding and very happy with this property. Melissa the property owner was also excellent and responded quickly to questions I had. They allowed my dog and that was a big plus. The property is not a new build it is eclectic old Tucson charm. The kitchen is well equipped if you choose to cook. I ate out at several great Tucson restaurants
I recommend this property
The house has been updated. Great cozy kitchen with all needed appliances. Large fridge with great ice maker. Cozy couch/TV area. The bedrooms are nice size. Not all the outlets work in the bedrooms so challenge with night lights for reading. The mattresses are very soft; Too soft for me.
The bathroom is nice. The shower is outstanding. Lovely outdoor area for sitting. Rustic and artsy. Covered parking was great for our stay in August. Also, dipping pool a huge plus. Loved the garden and cactus!
We loved this place! Especially the outside, the back yard. Totally private even though you are in a neighborhood. We (me, husband, 2 adult sons) used the spa almost every evening when the air was cool. It was fantastic! We loved the outside table and other outside areas for meals and hanging out late afternoon after daytime Tucson adventures. None of us minded the trains! Yes you could hear them when they went by but I love trains so no big deal. The kitchen had exactly what was needed for a few light meals. The beds were fine and comfy, extra pillows in closets, but if you must count on the sofa bed, I would say it was typical of pull-out sofa beds that I have used before, meaning not really that comfy. The bathroom shower was wonderful with a cool stone floor, glass blocks and 3 shower heads. Melissa responded promptly with questions and was great to work with. I would return here if we come back to Tucson.
Very cute house and beautiful yard in neighborhood very close to downtown. Beds were comfortable and bathroom is wonderful. House is old and charming. Very clean
Great place!We found it perfect for our needs and were not afraid to leave our dogs alone when we enjoyed the restaurants and sightseeing in Tucson I would improve the outdoor lighting in the backyard Thank you for your service and your patience
The house was fantastic. Walkable to some super fun areas of town. Great heated plunge pool. The hosts were extremely accommodating. We will definitely stay here again!!
This is our second time staying here and we love it! The location is perfect providing proximity to the downtown area and museums as well as the campus, with easy access to major roads leading to multiple recreation areas. We love the salt spa after mornings spent hiking. The beautiful fenced in backyard was great for the dogs and us. The kitchen was stocked with necessities to prepare meals at home. The house is not fancy but clean, comfortable and welcoming. We always feel very much at home when staying here.
When staying in Tucson, access to water is essential, and this lovely home provided just what we needed: a "Spa Pool" that serves as a cool down during hot days or a warm up in the evening. And the landscaping in that yard adds to the feeling of an oasis in the dessert. Simply lovely.We also liked the art in the home and the fine location to downtown or major arteries to everything.
