The $4.5 million Sale of the Catalina Foothills Home Shatters Records in both the Foothills and the City of Tucson.
Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty is proud to announce the 4.45 million dollar sale of Tucson’s “Villa Esperero”, a sale which has toppled selling price records in both Tucson, as well as the Catalina Foothills.
It was an honor to be involved with the sale of Villa Esperero at Rattlesnake Canyon once again
Judy Smedes, Listing Agent
The luxurious custom-built home spans 9,000-square-feet on a sprawling 49-acre lot with
incredible mountain and valley views, and represents yet another landmark sale for Russ Lyon
Sotheby’s International Realty in Southern Arizona.
Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty Agents Judy Smedes and Kate Herk represented both sides
in this outstanding transaction and guided both seller and buyer smoothly through the process.
Impeccably designed by architect Ron Robinette to synthesize international influences with the natural beauty of Tucson, Villa Esperero is a work of art which is nestled in the exclusive Rattlesnake
Canyon Estates. This one-of-a-kind estate is best described as having incredibly precise detailing and
meticulous craftsmanship, carefully executed with a wide array of fine finishes including mesquite floors, natural stone & marble.
Located at 6799 N. Rattlesnake Canyon Drive, the 9,003-square-feet includes five bedrooms
and six-and-a-half bathrooms. It sits amongst a beautiful natural desert landscape including
a myriad of saguaros as well as other desert surprises.
Villa Esperero is a work of art. It is a spectacular luxury home unlike any other in Tucson.

Nestled far into the Foothills, Villa Esperero is a haven for peace and solitude, as well as a full
embrace of the local landscape and surrounding nature. For guests who want to make the trek out, however, this home is nearly custom-made for entertaining. With a large and inviting outdoor area, as well as a dramatic great room with a 25-foot ceiling, it has both the hominess as well as the ”wow” factor that will both impress your guests and simultaneously make them feel right at home factor for potential guests: a full grand piano for the musically talented amongst us.
Guests will no doubt be delighted as they gaze towards the wall of windows and out at the mountain
ranges with the backdrop of piano playing. And that wall of windows along with the vaulted ceilings lend themselves to a bright, open atmosphere with plenty of natural light to illuminate your lifestyle.
The kitchen comes fully prepared to both accommodate a hungry family and a thirsty gaggle of friends. A wet bar is there for entertaining those friends, and a gas range and kitchen island
make it a comfortable and well-equipped place to prepare meals. And should those friends
indulge a bit too much, guest facilities are there to ensure that they don’t need to make
their way down the mountain at night.
Lastly, and perhaps the most impressive of the “wow” aspects (especially for baseball fans):
this home has its own hitting cage and viewing area! Decked out with the logos of
major league teams, baseball fans won’t want to leave and the hosts will certainly be
amongst the most coveted folks in town.
A truly unique and beautiful property, Villa Esperero is yet another example of Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty’s excellence in connecting buyers and sellers for the sale of one of the most impressive and valuable custom homes in the country.
