Beautifully updated Art Moderne in the heart of Blenman-Elm historic neighborhood, walking distance to Arizona Inn and Banner University Hospital, and a short streetcar ride from downtown. This 1954 Arthur T Brown designed brick home offers a blend of historic features and high-end modern updates. Enter the walled compound under the canopy of mature trees.. At the front of the home, the large living room with wood burning fireplace, and the adjacent Arizona room feature floor-to-ceiling windows that look out onto the Catalina mountains in the distance, and the landscaped front yard with custom steel pergola & brick patio. The house wraps around a central private courtyard, allowing natural light to stream through large windows and glass paneled doors into nearly every room of the house. Open floor plan kitchen and dining room are built for entertaining. The chef's kitchen impresses with Boos block and Vermont soapstone countertops, original St Charles cabinets, a fully-apportioned Viking range with six gas burners, griddle and two ovens, built-in Subzero fridge and a dual-zone wine fridge. The dining area looks onto a shaded patio and fireplace. The primary bedroom is tucked away in its own wing, with a large dressing room lined by custom closets, spacious bathroom with soaking tub and large study (or nursery) with bay window and wall-to-wall bookcases. The central bedroom features a bay window and adjacent bathroom, while the guest bedroom (doubling as an office) on the west wing has its own exterior entrance and nearby full bathroom. In the backyard there is an in-ground 'spool' that serves as a spa in the winter and dipping pool in the summer, and a detached open-ended studio. The finished garage functions as a bonus room with built-in storage cabinets, mini split AC, and EV compatible plug. Owners have made numerous recent updates (whole-house updated plumbing and electric, custom windows and doors, and other upgrades listed in the documents tab) which will allow the new buyers to continue enjoying its classic features with confidence in its comfort for many years to come.
