About This Home

As of August 2025

Welcome to 3342 E Seneca Street - where architecture and artistry meet in the heart of Tucson. Formerly the residence of local architect Charles Pifer, this one-of-a-kind two bedroom one bath home has been thoughtfully transformed into a modern desert retreat. From the moment you arrive, you'll notice the distinctive blend of clean lines, custom finishes, and natural light. The energy efficient and open-concept layout is both functional and inspiring, with curated spaces that flow seamlessly indoors and out. Sitting on a generous fully enclosed lot, the property offers room to expand, create, or simply enjoy the peaceful privacy it affords. The oversized garage provides ample space for studio work, a workshop, or extra storage - ideal for creatives and collectors alike.
