Not all lots are created equal. Some offer great views. Others come with easy access to utilities. And then there are lots like this one (sold), the kind that checks all the boxes.
We recently walked a property just west of downtown Tucson, and it didn’t take long to realize: this lot had it all. If you’re in the market for land, keep an eye out for the three B’s:
Buildable
Right away, it was clear this lot is unusually flat and ready to go. A generous, gently sloped buildable area makes it ideal for a single-level home, with minimal prep and maximum flexibility. Utilities? Already in place. Tucson Electric Power, Tucson Water, Southwest Gas, cable, and internet, all underground and ready to serve your future home.
Big Views
From the heart of the lot, the view opens up dramatically — a wide-angle panorama of downtown Tucson and the University of Arizona campus. It’s a rare sightline, one that most Tucson homes don’t get. With just the right elevation and natural framing, you can see the city unfold beneath the skyline, all from the peace and quiet of your own desert retreat.
Best Location
Location doesn’t get much better. Just 10 minutes to downtown and the University of Arizona, the lot offers the perfect blend of accessibility and privacy. Across the street? Painted Hills, a swath of protected open space owned by Pima County, once private land, now preserved forever. A few hundred yards away sits the Painted Hills Trailhead, perfect for a morning hike or sunset walk.
You won’t find many neighbors here either. The nearest home sits tucked on a knoll to the south, far enough to enjoy your space but close enough to feel like part of a community.
Buying a Tucson Lot
Whether you’re searching for a primary residence, a private retreat, or an investment in Tucson’s west side, lots like this don’t come around often. When they do, they don’t last long.
