Pool AC Near UofA and hospital. Quiet, historical neighborhood. Upgraded

Welcome to the Waverly House. Our home is being listed for vacation rental for the first time in January of 2020. That means all new everything for guests: linens, towels, kitchen supplies, beds, TVs, appliances, much of the furniture, all plumbing / bathroom fixtures, new toilets, new master bathroom. A perfect spot for family of four or guests of the campus. Centrally located for a perfect business stay or desert holiday. Very private and serene in a historical neighborhood. Corner lot.

The master bedroom has the new king bed and frame. New quilt comforter, 800 thread count Egyptian cotton linens, Antique dresser. Tiffany style lamps on nightstands, ceiling fan, large closet. Samsung smart TV. Refinished, original oak flooring. En suite master bathroom has been gutted and completely rebuilt with tiled floor and walls, new marble top vanity, toilets and all fixtures. The shower is a massive four feet by four feet!

The second bedroom has a queen with new quilt comforter, 800 thread count Egyptian cotton linens. It is our country and western themed bedroom with Cowboy and Indian art and antiques as decor. Ceiling fan and refinished original oak flooring.

Second bathroom has fun multi-colored tiles, new tile flooring, new toilet and plumbing fixtures. Shower / tub and a refinished vanity.

Living room has two upholstered chairs and an ottoman. Unusual middle eastern brass table and antique reading lamp. Ceiling fan and refinished original oak flooring. Big picture window overlooking the pool and courtyard.

Den has a cozy couch, ceiling fan, an array of new double pane windows and a new ten light door to the back veranda. A big screen Samsung smart TV. Large antique coffee table and parson's table were brought in from South Africa and are made of sturdy and lovely African hardwood.

Kitchen was remodeled a few years ago and we upgraded to an uber-quiet stainless steel in and out dishwasher, new commercial style faucet and a side by side, ice and water in door, refrigerator. A gas range for your ease of cooking. Every amenity in the kitchen is brand new...dinnerware, glassware, silverware, pots and pans, small appliances including a microwave, blender, mixer, KitchenAid drip coffee make, coffee grinder, ice tea maker. Lots of baking pans, Pyrex storage containers and useful gadgets.

Just off the kitchen is the laundry room with a brand new set of Maytag full sized, commercial, washer and dryer. A top of the line new water heater makes sure you have plenty of that. The entire water supply in the house is softened with Culligan water service. This mitigates Tucson famous hard water issues. What a difference it makes!

Our pool is not heated, but provides a quiet and serene getaway for relaxing and lounging year around. The surround coping in a super-premium concrete mix that keeps it cooler and regular surfaces. There are two pool loungers, and patio dining table with 4 chair and an umbrella. The pool features steps as entry, so no ladder, and easy to get right in.

There is a new Weber gas grill, located on the east side of home (shady in afternoon and early evening!). It is connected to the natural gas system, so you never run out of gas!

We are dog lovers and travel with our golden retriever. So, we make our property available to same. There is a fee of $50 per pet. No pit bulls, rottweilers, German shepards or other aggressive dogs. No dogs over 60 pounds. You are responsible for cleaning up dog messes in yard.

We are energy conscious people. We have a 8KW, 22 panel, solar array on the roof to help offset the home's energy use. We use a smart thermostat. This is a non-smoking residence. You will enjoy the 6 foot stucco wall that surrounds the entire property for privacy, security, peace and quiet.

Waverly is wonderful!
We loved our stay and wish we could have stayed longer! Great, quiet neighborhood, with restaurants within walking distance. Cute pool area with lots of sun. The King bed was very comfortable. We would definitely stay again next time we are in Tucson. Thanks for being dog-friendly!

Loving Tucson
Quaint older bungalow with everything you need for a pleasurable stay. The neighborhood was perfect for walking around with a great location close to downtown, stores and restaurants. The outdoor area of the house was perfect for relaxing in privacy after a day of hiking or sightseeing. Unfortunately the pool wasn’t warm enough for us to swim while we were here but enjoyed sitting around it. The owner Tom took very good care of us while we were here and was easy to reach when needed. We are hoping to come again next year!

Wonderful place to stay!
This house was perfect for us. Large bedrooms with comfortable beds and pillows. Great kitchen stocked with everything you need. The pool was cold but we still went in to escape the heat. Air conditioning was amazing in the house. Can control for each room. Hosts were very responsive. There are no floats for the pool and you should bring soap for showers and to wash hands in bathroom.

This place is amazing. Very unique eclectic home that was not only quiet but a place to really decompress from the hustle and bustle of faced pace city life to the north (ie Glendale, AZ). My children 14 and 10 enjoyed the pool as well as being close to some of their comfort stores like Sprouts. We went to Reid Park Zoo just a few minutes away and also toured Colossal Cave which was about 25minutes away. This property was exactly as pictured and the owber was quick to respond with questions. This truly is a gem in Tucson and I highly recommend it. Tammi Watkins

Intro to Tucson
My husband, daughter and I stayed for a week at this property. We got in a little late but the exterior lights were on and the directions for getting into the house were perfect. The house was very clean, the beds extremely comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The neighborhood was quiet and was central to the museums, parks etc... that we were traveling to each day. Nothing really in walking distance, but it was easy to find our way around by car. Tucson is very spread out but the food was great, there was plenty to do and we had a lovely time. Great house. Would stay there again!

Charming house and dog friendly
We stayed 4 nts, 2 people & a dog. The house was very comfortable and as described. Nicely equipped kitchen. Easy access and no issues checking in or out. The enclosed backyard was very convenient for our dog. A little bit of searching for remotes for the heat controls but we found them! Nice looking pool but too cold to try it.

Christmas in Tucson
We enjoyed everything about our Christmas stay in the Waverly house! The bed was very comfortable, had a spacious bathroom, loved the enclosed back yard for letting our dog out in the mornings, the kitchen so well stocked, even a hand mixer to make the icing for Christmas cinnamon buns:) The owners were friendly and easy to work with, 1st when we needed to change a reservation date, and again helping with locations to host our grand daughters birthday party. Highly recommend-especially to those who travel with their dog, so pet friendly. We definitely plan to return to the Waverly house. Pam and Bill

Love this house!!!
We absolutely loved our stay here. The house was perfect for our family . We only wished we could have stayed longer! From waking up in the morning and enjoying a cup of coffee by the pool to sitting out on the back patio late afternoon to hanging out in the kitchen/dining room over a cocktail, we were so happy. The beds are super comfortable and the space is so nice. The property is in a centrally located and quiet neighborhood that is close to the university and many great restaurants. We can’t wait to come back!!!

Comfortable Stay
We enjoyed our four night stay. The house is as shown in the pictures and we found it to be very comfortable right from the start. The kitchen is well stocked and we used the bbq one night. The deck area around the pool was a great spot to relax and enjoy a beer. We had an issue with the coffee maker the first day and after e-mailing the owner, Kathy came by and immediately went out and bought a new coffee maker and kettle. It was very much appreciated for the rest of our stay. We would definitely stay here again if in the area.

This was a great property for two couples in town for a football game. Bedrooms and bathrooms are plenty spacious, kitchen is well stocked and the pool area was perfect.

Restful Week Away
The clean, comfortable house was just right for a week away. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking equipment, and we were happy to find a coffee grinder in addition to the coffee maker. Quiet neighborhood within easy walking distance to many amenities, including restaurants. We spent most of the week sitting by the pool, reading. Pool was cold, but just warm enough to enjoy on a hot afternoon. Beds were particularly comfortable, soft but not sagging.

The house was clean and tidy! Too chilly for the pool but was still nice to sit around and enjoy the sunshine. For first time to AZ it was a nice location to restaurants and breakfast/brunch. Would rent again but need more than just a sofa in the tv room. Couple more chairs would help for chatting and drinks. Was a great time!
