Phoenix Homesteads Historic District
------------------------------------------------------
Step back in time to an era when craftsmanship and community defined what it meant to live in Arizona. This authentic 1937 hand-built adobe, located in the charming Phoenix Homesteads Historic District, captures the enduring spirit of early desert living. Thick earthen walls, shaded patios, and a lush irrigated lot create an atmosphere that's both timeless and serenean escape just moments from the heart of the city.
The main residence offers three bedrooms and three baths, blending rustic charm with quiet sophistication. Interiors feature hand-hewn woods, crafted details, playful mosaic art, and a warmth that only adobe can provide. Natural light filters through deeply set windows, highlighting spaces that invite art, conversation, and reflection. A heated/chilled pool anchors the central courtyard, surrounded by mature trees and hacienda-style landscapingan ideal setting for both quiet retreat and lively gatherings.
Beyond the main house, a fully equipped detached guest casita provides flexible living options with income potential. Private patios and intimate outdoor spaces connect each structure in a layout that celebrates informality and creative flow. It's a home that feels collected and evolved over timean artist's refuge that balances history, livability, and understated desert elegance. Fully updated, this unique home offers an unequalled setting and a "ready to move in" experience seldom found in most historic residences.
Architect Robert T. Evans, who contributed to many of the homes in Phoenix Homesteads, helped shape this remarkable neighborhood's character. Established in the 1930s as part of a New Deal-era housing initiative, Phoenix Homesteads was designed to provide affordable, self-sufficient living through small-scale farming and cooperative land use. The district remains one of Phoenix's most historically significant enclaves, where adobe craftsmanship, human scale, and community values endure nearly a century later.
