About This Home
The Rubi Mansion--arguably one of Downtown Tucson's most iconic historic residences--stands proudly in the heart of Tucson's vibrant Commercial and Infill District, directly across from Armory Park. Built in 1907 for Senator Owen T. Rouse, this extraordinary property has been thoughtfully restored-preserving the craftsmanship and character that define its rich history while seamlessly blending modern comfort.
Throughout the home, original architectural details remain beautifully intact, including the original doors, intricate moldings, hardwood floors, grand wood staircase and banisters, built-in cabinetry, hand-painted concrete tile, and the original City of Tucson Seal showcased on the front porch.
On the main level, a grand entry foyer welcomes guests and flows... See more into elegant formal living and dining rooms, each anchored by a historic fireplace. A spacious family room and thoughtfully updated kitchen which is perfect provide comfortable everyday living while honoring the home's timeless character.
The second-floor features four spacious bedrooms, two of which have access to original wrought-iron balconies, along with two beautifully appointed bathrooms.
Completing the property is the carriage house, offering exceptional flexibility as a guest suite, artist's studio, private office, or creative workspace. Rich in history, architectural significance, and endless possibilities, The Rubi Mansion has served as a distinguished private residence, an art museum, and a venue for countless memorable gatherings. Today, it presents a rare opportunity to own one of Tucson's most celebrated landmarks and write the next chapter in its remarkable story.
