A Dream Home in a Dream Neighborhood: A Remodeled Spanish style in Encanto/Palmcroft
Among homes for sale in Phoenix, it doesn’t get much better than vintage Spanish/Mediterranean in Arizona’s own Beverly Hills, the coveted Encanto/Palmcroft neighborhood. And this one is special for so many reasons. It’s on a corner lot facing the Encanto Golf Course, giving it privacy, a lovely view, and country club ambiance without those annoying fees. It’s a three-level house with a newly built, separate guest house and two-car garage. It has two fireplaces and a beautifully kept back yard with a pool. And it’s been fully remodeled with a deep devotion to preserving the original design.
In 1936, Margaret Mitchell published a little tale called Gone with the Wind. Hoover Dam was completed and the Green Hornet began fighting crime over America’s radio waves. The first edition of Life magazine hit the newsstands. And this house was born. When you enter the foyer and behold the grand staircase with its original wrought-iron banister, the wood floors that extend throughout the house, the French doors, vaulted ceilings, and skylights, you can’t help but admire the charm and solid craftsmanship of those buoyant and optimistic days.
With 4,700 square feet, a dedicated bathroom for each of the five bedrooms (plus a powder bath for day visitors), an eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, and breakfast bar, there’s plenty of room for even the most space-loving of families. Phoenix real estate just keeps getting better and better!
As of 7/22/08, the home is being offered at $1,495,000. Check out all the details on this Phoenix historic home for sale or call me on 602-620-6267 to make an appointment to see it.
