Tucson, AZ 85716

LUXURY LIVE AUCTION! Bidding to start from $600,000.00! Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, offering potential tax advantages! Situated within the Historic El Encanto Estates, this 1935 Spanish Colonial Revival residence, designed by the esteemed architects Bailey & McCoy, represents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Tucson's architectural heritage. Concealed behind a modest facade, the home reveals itself beyond a substantial gated courtyard: a private, nearly half-acre retreat defined by quiet elegance and enduring craftsmanship. With 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms spanning 2,663 square feet, the residence combines period character with modern utility. Original details have been carefully preserved with high ceiling and crown molding and solid double brick and plaster... walls that ensure both thermal integrity and acoustic insulation. A classic wood-burning fireplace anchors the living area, while the formal dining room is appointed with a vintage Art Deco chandelier. An enclosed Arizona room, formerly a sleeping porch, adds architectural interest and flexibility. The outdoor space is notably rare for this proximity to the urban core: mature desert landscaping, a sparkling pool, and ample room for entertaining or solitude, all within minutes of the revitalized Sunshine Mile the gateway to Downtown, Broadway Village, and 2.5 miles from the University of Arizona. Reid Park and Randolph Rec Center are also nearby. The home is further enhanced by a detached two-car garage, a basement that is well-suited for storage or a wine cellar, a water catchment system, and a thoughtful suite of recent upgrades, including full interior and exterior paint, updated plumbing throughout and refinished wood floors. Other features include zoned HVAC, mini-split, two water heaters, stainless appliances including a gas stove, and a dedicated butler's pantry. Though conveniently located along a transit line, the moment one steps inside the gated courtyard, the atmosphere shifts to a quiet, removed, and unmistakably residential retreat. This is not simply a home; it is a preserved piece of Tucson's history, offering space, integrity, and a sense of permanence in one of the city's most iconic neighborhoods.
