Remembering Embracing Sabino Mountain for the First Time

August 3, 2008 by donna.

Today I was thinking about when I first experienced Sabino Mountain. My family rented a place at The Greens ( near the corner of N Kolb and Sunrise) for 3 months, so we could find a place to live in December 2003. My husband was immediately drawn to Sabino Mountain, but I had my second thoughts since it was not located in District 16 School District and I had already enrolled my first grader into Ventana Vista Elementary School. We would drive up Sabino Mountain constantly, especially since my husband really was attracted to it. Like many other would-be buyers, I looked on-line for new listings at least daily and saw the house we presently live in come up for sale. My husband was at work and my daughter was at school, but I thought I would take a quick look-see. I walked around and looked in the windows; it was vacant and then I tried the door in the back that was surprisedly unlocked. I walked in, checked it out and immediately knew this was the house for us. Every day since I have been grateful. I love facing the city and having the sparkling lights at night; I love owning part of the pristine Sonoran Desert (we live on a 2 acre homesite with most of it designated as desert area not to be built upon or disturbed except to take out buffle grass,etc); and I love the privacy. I would probably only chose to live in a gated community which Sabino Mountain is. So dream come true! Our family is truly blessed!
