Property Details for 5001 W Monte Carlo Drive, Tucson, AZ 85745
Description
Perched atop a private hilltop cul-de-sac on an expansive 0.8 acre lot, this exceptional 3,201-square-foot custom residence captures breathtaking 360° city and mountain views. Offering 3 bedrooms plus a versatile bonus room and 3 bathrooms, the home blends privacy, superior craftsmanship, and convenient access to I-10, downtown Tucson, premier local attractions, and nearby hiking and biking trails. A gated courtyard entry sets the tone for the resort-inspired backyard, where a stunning 15' x 30' faux-edge pool and spa overlook the Tucson valley. Designed for year-round enjoyment, the pool features a PebbleTec® black marble finish, in-floor cleaning system, solar and gas heating, automatic cover, custom water-wall feature, and a poolside gas fire pit. An outdoor shower with hot water enhances the experience. Additional exterior highlights include shaded RV/boat parking (12' wide x 11'4+ high clearance), two secure dog areas, and a 6-zone irrigation system for effortless landscape care. Inside, timeless finishes and quality details shine throughout. A French double-door entry welcomes you into living spaces defined by soaring 11-foot ceilings with exposed wood beams in the great room, living room, and sunroom. Cerdomus Kairos porcelain tile laid in a Versailles pattern is complemented by 8 tile baseboards and porcelain door casements. Triple-pane skylights bathe the home in natural light, while hand-troweled walls and curated designer finishes add warmth and refinement. Solid knotty alder interior doors, DuraSupreme Crestwood all-plywood cabinetry, and abundant built-in storage showcase the home's elevated craftsmanship. The great room is anchored by a gas fireplace with a custom precast concrete mantel and dramatic floor-to-ceiling surround. A dedicated bonus room features extensive knotty alder built-ins, ideal for working from home. The spacious 16' x 18' primary suite offers direct pool access and a spa-like bath complete with a Thermasol steam shower, quartz countertops, and custom cabinetry. Designed for both entertaining and everyday living, the kitchen features 30 deep rustic cherry cabinetry, Verde Bellagio granite countertops, a full travertine backsplash, roll-out drawers, in-cabinet lighting, double trash/recycle, a built-in desk area, and stainless-steel appliances. Extensive system upgrades provide peace of mind, including whole-house electrical and plumbing updates, two newer HVAC systems, a newer gas water heater, spray polyurethane foam roof (recoated February 2026), water softener, central vacuum, structured wiring, hard-wired security with CCTV, and whole-house A/V integration. With no HOA, panoramic views, and resort-style amenities, this thoughtfully upgraded hilltop estate presents a rare opportunity to enjoy luxury desert living at its finest.
