Historic Josias Joesler Home Now Available in Catalina Foothills Estates

TUCSON, Ariz. - March 27, 2016 - PRLog -- One of the earliest homes designed by Josias Joesler in the historic Catalina Foothills Estates is now listed for sale. The house, 5030 N. La Lomita, was commissioned by a University of Arizona professor and built by John Murphey in 1930. It is one of roughly 200 Joesler-designed properties still standing in the Tucson area.

The property is listed at $1,495,000 with Ell Exclusive Real Estate Group of Keller Williams Southern Arizona.

La Lomita has the distinction of being one of the very first homes built in the Catalina Foothills Estates development, which, over 80 years later, is still one of Tucson's most desirable areas.

Joesler designs are known for their attention to topography, and La Lomita was designed to maximize views, with the city and Santa Cruz Valley to the south, and the Catalina Mountains to the north.

La Lomita is a sprawling, 4,447 square foot property with four bedrooms and six bathrooms on 3.45 acres. A fully detached, 800 square foot guest house sits on the eastern edge of the property, with a bedroom, two baths, kitchenette, and living room.

The main house includes separate master and guest wings, and all bedrooms have private attached baths. A 2007 renovation added a casual family room off the kitchen, creating an open living space in addition to the formal living room. Other living spaces include formal dining, guest wing bonus area with a private backyard patio, wet bar area, and custom breakfast bar with seating for six.

Today, La Lomita is in the hands of its fourth owners, who have maintained the house in accordance with its Joesler design. With the exception of the kitchen, which has been completely renovated for modern homeowners with wide open spaces, luxury appliances, and granite and travertine finishes, the house retains its classic Joesler feel.
