Property Description

Nestled in the cherished Earll Place Historic District, this timeless 1920 brick California bungalow captures the essence of early Phoenix charm with thoughtful updates that honor its century-old character. Step inside to discover gleaming original oak hardwood floors that flow beneath 9-foot coved ceilings, creating an airy, gracious feel throughout the main living spaces. The living room centers around a beautifully preserved ornamental fireplace with its classic brick surround and detailed mantle--perfect for cool evenings or simply as a striking focal point. Arched doorways and windows add that signature period elegance, while fresh neutral tones and modern lighting keep things bright and inviting. The kitchen offers a tidy, efficient layout with contemporary appliances, including a gas range, and opens conveniently to the back patio area where the washer and dryer reside. A spacious, carpeted master bedroom easily accommodates a king-size bed and features its own updated bath. Just off the master, an upstairs loft provides versatile space--ideal for a quiet home office, reading nook, or creative retreat with lovely natural light pouring through the windows. Outside, the real magic unfolds in the expansive, fully enclosed backyard. Mature trees, lush foliage, and desert-adapted landscaping create a private oasis that's surprisingly spacious for the area--perfect for pets to roam, weekend barbecues, or simply enjoying Arizona's golden light. A generous 720 sq ft detached storage building (ideal for workshop, boat, or extra vehicles) sits alongside a single-car garage (think Model T friendly) and additional patio space. Recent upgrades include a brand-new 4-ton Trane HVAC system installed for reliable, efficient comfort year-round. Located with quick access to downtown Phoenix, Phoenix Children's Hospital, and the SR-51, this rare historic gem blends old-world character with everyday livability--ready for its next chapter with someone who appreciates both history and heart. Welcome home.
