About This Home
Welcome to this enchanting 2-bedroom, 1-bath home in the heart of the beloved Blenman Elm Historic Neighborhood. Overflowing with character, this 1,033 sq ft treasure blends thoughtful updates with authentic vintage charm. The inviting front porch, accented with artistic desert colors, pulls you into this mid-century modern stunner. Inside, you'll find beautiful hardwood floors, soft natural light, plantation shutters and eye-catching architectural details — including white-washed exposed brick in the primary suite, masonry plaster walls, and graceful curved archways. The beautifully updated kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring open wood shelving, solid butcher block counters, subway tile backsplash, and the star of the show — the original vintage oven that has been lovingly preserved. The adjacent dining nook offers charming designer lighting, and opens nicely to kitchen and living room, perfect for entertaining. Both bedrooms are peaceful retreats with hardwood floors and ample closet/storage space, while the stylishly remodeled bathroom showcases crisp white tile, with a modern grid-style shower enclosure, and patterned accents that nod to the home's historic roots. Step outside to the expansive .23-acre lot, where desert living thrives. Enjoy a spacious covered patio perfect for lounging or entertaining, mature trees, and inviting spaces for gatherings including a fire pit area and tree-stump seating. The property also includes a small workshop with electrical hookup, plus additional storage shed, and a whimsical chicken coop and run, ideal for hobbyists or urban homesteaders. This home places you moments from the University of Arizona, Banner Hospital, bike routes, parks, and all the charm of downtown Tucson. Masterfully maintained and rich with personality, this Blenman Elm beauty is the perfect blend of historic soul and modern comfort!
