The HOME: Designed by Al Beadle in 1960, Paradise Gardens and Mountain Preserve area home offers authentic Desert Modern Design in one of a small handful of Phoenix MCM enclaves. The generous open floorpan and incredible Mountain Preserve proximity is a Mid Century classic property. Widely accepted as a "Palo Verde" Floor plan by Al Beadle, A1 Builders deviated from the original flat roof line during development. A common theory was this very deviation from flat roof to pitched roof initiated Al's departure from the project. (Al Beadle Residential projects exclusively utilized flat roofs for his clients). Since 1961 and until 2021, 3531 E Onyx was home to the Kilbarger Family. Avid antiques collectors and car enthusiasts, they were very much fixtures of the community a part of the growth and popularity of Paradise Gardens.
MID CENTURY MODERN: The house and Addition are both of masonry construction showcasing a high level of craftsmanship and sandblasted to a vibrant finish. Long over hangs, and original bedroom screens have been preserved and with provide respite from the elements. The thoughtful improvements augment the original floor plan remaining largely unchanged. Wide expanses of glass doors connect the home seamlessly to the outdoors, yet protected from the elements in the required seasons appropriate of modernism and passive energy efficiency. The Master suite is particularly generous, with a large walk-in closet and walnut vanity desk. Original Post War Modernism details preserved and new additions follow a "What would Al do" approach. For those interested in Mid-Century Modern Design, this home presents a unique example and in a special community. Recent systems updates of mechanicals, plumbing, appliances, flooring, roof and electrical insure this home is ready to enjoy today for years to come.
