House Description

Step Into a Century of Character

A live-work-play opportunity in Midtown Phoenix with a proven income stream. Multi-generational living or student off-campus housing, so many options! Built in 1920, this rare International Modern-style residence is one of Phoenix's most compelling live-work-invest properties. Nestled in the historic Longview neighborhood, adjacent to the storied Idylwild Historic District and the Historic Phoenix Country Club Golf Course, the property is currently operating as a successful short-term and corporate rental, consistently booked by convention-goers and business travelers drawn to Downtown Phoenix year-round.

The main house offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with a loft, and has been thoughtfully updated while honoring its historic roots. Soaring vaulted ceilings in the great room draw the eye to dramatic skylights that flood the space with natural light, while a striking spiral iron staircase ascends to an open loft, the kind of feature guests photograph and rave about in reviews. The upgraded kitchen leans fully into the industrial aesthetic with an oversized island and breakfast bar, updated stainless steel appliances, a vent hood, and modern tile that embellishes the walls with open shelving. Down the hall, the primary suite features a Spanish-inspired tiled bathroom with a dual vanity, a custom tiled shower with glass enclosure, and a custom closet organizer. Wood panel trim, fun lighting, ceiling fans, and an electric wall fireplace set the ambiance throughout.

The casita is a game changer! A 2-bedroom, 1-bath casita complete with a spacious living area, an oversized kitchenette with island, and in-unit laundry, everything a corporate guest needs for an extended stay, with its own private entrance and front patio. A generous adjacent storage room is already primed for conversion to a 1-car garage. Multigenerational living or rental investment income, the possibilities are endless.

The backyard delivers the kind of wow factor that earns five-star reviews. A versatile bonus structure, game room, she-shed, or private lounge, features barn-door windows, a built-in bar, true indoor/outdoor feel, a dedicated A/C wall unit, and full electrical. Open it up for a festive indoor-outdoor flow, or close it down for a private retreat. The covered patio ties it all together for seamless alfresco entertaining, and the outdoor pergola comes complete with a fan misting system and party lighting.
