A dual sided fireplace defines the living and dining room spaces and was strategically replicated outside to honor the home's original elegance. A second interior fireplace is adorned with Vintage handmade tiles in the den, along with Custom wainscoting and copious bookcases. Updated bathrooms, multiple living spaces, and a split floorplan bring a cohesive, functional feel to this home.
Preservation has been paired with substantial stewardship over the last few decades as the property features improvements of the highest caliber including updated plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems, along with a Presidential roof and fully owned solar system featuring upgraded microinverters.
Outside, multiple gathering areas create an unparalleled setting for central Tucson living, from intimate gatherings to larger celebrations, this home was designed for hosting. The pool and spa, outdoor kitchen and bar, ramada, and cabana are complemented by mature botanical gardens that provide shade, privacy, and a richly layered landscape developed over many years.
Beyond its established gardens, the property incorporates rainwater harvesting, irrigation infrastructure, and productive spaces including an urban vegetable garden, greenhouse, potting shed, and chicken coop. The result is a distinctive central Tucson property where historic character, meaningful modernization, and an exceptionally well developed outdoor environment come together. Just a short stroll or bike ride to Banner Hospital, The University of Arizona, and the Iconic Arizona Inn.
