Welcome to this classic beauty 3,764 square foot home built in 1935 and originally designed by Rochelle Rubin, perfectly positioned in the historic Blenman-Elm neighborhood, just a couple of blocks from the renowned Arizona Inn. This exceptional 3-bedroom, four-bathroom residence carries a preserved charm through its classic design with an elevated twist of contemporary luxury.
Step inside to experience the pairing of Saltillo tile and solid wood floors throughout, with soaring ceilings adorned with rich wood beams that accentuate the character in the dining and living room, and flow seamlessly throughout each of the unique rooms of this fabulously designed floor plan, with sets of fine Pella French doors that integrate a seamless transition (take in more) from inside, to a tranquil and harmonious exterior space.
The gourmet kitchen stands as the heart of the home, featuring natural light streaming through dual skylights and a sophisticated mahogany built-in bar complete with SubZero freezer drawers and wine storage, a 4'commercial gas stove, Electrolux stainless refrigerator, microwave, built-in oven, dishwsher, Corian counters, walk-in pantry, with beautiful cabinetry and subway tile backsplash. The split floor plan was created for added privacy just off the kitchen with the super-size laundry room, the 1/2 bath and the 600 sqft Primary Suite with French door patio access and a fabulous bath area with a walk-in shower, claw foot tub, radiant marble tiled heated floor and spacious dressing room with a walk-in closet.
Through the living room to 2 more guest rooms, a 3rd full bath and the 3rd guest room ensuite with patio access. Attention to functionality and efficiency is evident with the newer AC, mini-split system, smart thermostats, leased security system, and tankless water heater. Paved driveway, 2-car garage with electric car charger and storage. The outdoor areas truly shine, beginning with the front courtyard enclosed with masonry stucco featuring an elegant fountain with carefully selected vegetation with irrigation systems, to the backyard with the ramada centered around citrus trees, thoughtfully arranged vegetation and a tranquil fountain that attracts hummingbirds and butterflies, creating a peaceful sanctuary within the beautifully designed landscape. One of the timeless beauties available in the heart of Tucson's coveted Historic areas.
