Based on your description, the simplest answer to your question (not be the best solution, see why below) would be to call a Python script from R with system()

> system(paste('python ExportedModelBuilder.py', argumentIn, argumentOut, sep=" ")

for the python file, you can export it from model builder and change some of the variables as arguments using argv[]. The main drawback with this method would be the fact that you will import arcpy at each launch of Python, which will considerably slow down your process.

The best solution is to do everything in R: the functions that you mention in your first paragraph are all available with the rgdal and raster packages.
