Tucson's west side was a well kept secret when I bought this spot. Tania's 33 on Grande has always been my favorite. This townhouse was my home for many years. The neighborhood has changed a lot over the past 15 years. But this corner of townhomes has pretty much always been a quiet haven. The enclosed patio has been a sanctuary for me and many others for a long time.
Now that the Mercado District has taken off, the rest of the world, it seems, has discovered the charm and convenience of the Menlo Park neighborhood. Rich with historic homes and very close to the bike loop, its hard to find a better situated neighborhood. Its also close to great hiking and a short walk to the historic and intense cardio walk up Tumamoc Hill.
