About This Home
The West Second St Historic District, once known as ''Millionaire's Row,'' this single-level residence offers walkable access to Mesa's civic, business, dining, cultural, and light rail amenities. Set on an oversized lot, the home features a paver driveway, covered patios, Ramada, wood-look tile, crown molding, gourmet kitchen, and a master suite with clawfoot tub, dual vanities, oversized shower, and walk-in closet. Major updates include 2012 roof, 2021 Trane HVAC with 2023 ducts, 2023 main sewer line, irrigation, pavilion with patio, new sod, 2023 flooring, 2025 epoxy pipe lining, and 2025 upgraded electrical panel. West Second Street Historic District, once celebrated as "Millionaire's Row," presents a rare opportunity to own an exceptional single-level residence in one of Mesa's most distinguished neighborhoods. Rich with history yet fully appointed for modern living, this property combines timeless charm with a comprehensive array of thoughtful updates. Located within easy walking distance to Mesa's municipal complex, business district, educational institutions, cultural venues, a variety of dining options, and convenient light rail access, the home offers the perfect blend of historic character and urban lifestyle.
Set on an oversized lot, the home is designed for both comfort and entertaining, offering expansive indoor and outdoor living areas while preserving some elements and character of the early 1950's when the home was originally built. The grounds are enhanced by a paver driveway, lush new landscaping, and multiple outdoor gathering spaces including a covered paver patio, separate pavilion-style Ramada, and a generous backyard designed for entertaining. 2023 sod and an upgraded irrigation and sprinkler system ensure year-round curb appeal, while additional paver walkways and patios provide both function and aesthetic continuity throughout the outdoor areas.
Inside, the home is beautifully maintained and tastefully upgraded. The spacious floor plan features wood-like tile flooring throughout, creating a seamless flow from room to room. Elegant crown molding and custom details elevate the interiors, while large windows welcome natural light into the living spaces. The gourmet kitchen is a centerpiece, designed with both form and function in mind.
The primary suite is a true retreat, with a spa-like master bath that includes a luxurious clawfoot soaking tub, dual vanities, an oversized glass shower, and a walk-in closet with generous storage. Secondary bedrooms and baths are equally well-appointed, providing comfort for family and guests alike.
Beyond its beauty, the home has had significant investments in major systems. The roof was replaced in 2012, ensuring longevity and peace of mind. Mechanical updates include a high-efficiency Trane HVAC system installed in 2021, new ductwork in 2023, and a major sewer line replacement in 2023. That same year, extensive landscape improvements were completed, and wood-like tile flooring was installed throughout the home. In 2025, further upgrades were added, including epoxy lining of the original cast-iron pipes beneath the home and a complete replacement and modernization of the main electrical panel. These improvements provide not only comfort and reliability but also long-term value for the next homeowner.
A large garage with additional storage completes the property, offering practical convenience. Altogether, this residence blends historical prestige with modern amenities, making it a truly unique opportunity to own a piece of Mesa's heritage while enjoying the benefits of a thoughtfully modernized home.
