Main home 1,217 sqft, Guest 324 sqft. The elegant living room sets the tone with original scored concrete flooring, beautiful coved ceilings, and charming picture molding--an inviting introduction that immediately reflects the home's architectural heritage. From there, the space flows seamlessly into a thoughtfully refreshed kitchen, where vintage-inspired design meets modern convenience. A classic-style range offers a nod to the past, complemented by updated stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, built-in microwave, and refrigerator. Continuing through the home, you'll find two well-appointed bedrooms and a flexible family room/den, each enhanced with custom roller shades, updated ceiling fans, and restored flooring. The bathroom remains true to the home's origins, featuring black-and-white tiled flooring, a cast iron tub, and vintage pedestal sink. The original hallway cabinetry and phone niche add layers of preserved charm. Stepping outside, the spacious backyard offers a versatile setting designed for easy, low-water living, while still providing a blank canvas for future landscaping or garden design. At the rear of the property, the detached guest house extends the home's functionality with a fully updated studio layout, complete with an open kitchen, living and sleeping space, quartz countertops, and a ¾ bath with tile flooring- ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or a private workspace. Behind the scenes, key improvements- including dual-pane windows, a new roof (2021), HVAC (2023), and exterior paint (2021)- bring modern comfort and efficiency. Leased solar system provides savings on energy bills and low monthly payments! A home that offers a cohesive blend of historic character and modern updates, thoughtfully connected from front to back in one of Phoenix's most beloved neighborhoods.
