Rare opportunity to own one of the best maintained historic homes in all of Tombstone! The renowned Allen English home was built in 1882 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. English's celebrated style and showmanship in the courtroom not only won him cases but drew in crowds just to watch the ''silver tongued orator'' in action. English soon became the talk of Tombstone, not only for his Courtroom antics, but also for his personal library of over two thousand volumes that was considered to be one of the ''most complete libraries in the West''. This colorful personality was also known to quote Shakespeare and poetry and for his carousing in the local saloons. This home has been kept as a private residence, and per rumor, has never been open to the public. The highlight of the main house is its adobe construction, original hardwood floors and shiplap ceilings. Six original windows feature rope and sandbag pulls. The parlor features original 1882 stained glass windows that Allen English had shipped from Paris, as a gift for his wife. The 1880s original bar, from the notorious Oriental Saloon, was painstakingly brought in, through the side parlor window, in two separate pieces. In the parlor, you will find two original Tiffany chandeliers from the historic Jeff Milton home in Tombstone. The last spot in the main home of particular interest is the original office of Allen English. It is currently being used as a walk-in closet shared by English's original bedroom and the back suite. The home has had two additions since built in 1882, one in the 1960s and one in the 1980s. The current primary suite has a separate entrance of French doors, off the driveway. The 1960s addition also features its own separate entrance, which can be accessed off the front of the home. The current owner has lovingly maintained, restored and made necessary upgrades/repairs to the home since purchasing it. Currently zoned as residential, but can be changed to multi-zoned or commercial. Move-in ready as a permanent residence, vacation rental, or as a combination of both, could be a fantastic business opportunity for new owners. Located across from the Tombstone Courthouse State Historic Park, this home is walking distance from everything Tombstone has to offer. It is a prime location with ample parking, foot traffic and located on the route of the historic stagecoaches. Call today for your private tour of this wonderful home and be sure to check out the additional documents tab for a complete list of upgrades/repairs, and list of regular scheduled maintenance items.
