Description

Possibly the most highly upgraded home in Downtown Phx; This highly anticipated home is a rare work of art that only comes around once in a blue moon. Located in the heart of the Willo Historic District; this is the work of esteemed Designer Trent Hancock. This property boasts approximately 2,600 total square feet with a two story casita that borders a raised designer pool, spa and sunken firepit area with a steel shade screen feature and a 1,600 square foot main residence with all the bells and whistles you could dream of. This property is highly landscaped with an outdoor bbq, custom steel planters and mature desert plants and cactus.

Supplements: The main house interior has one of the most grand entry living rooms of any home downtown; featuring a vaulted Spanish style ebony wood ceiling and the original hardwood floors and an epic tiered Spanish fireplace. A dining room with a coffered wood ceiling and wet bar leads you to a new modern gourmet kitchen with Wolf/ Sub zero appliances and LED lit cabinets all with Sonos surround speakers leading to a lush backyard through floor to ceiling custom steel and glass doors. A luxe owners suite boasts a highly modernized bathroom that features a stand alone tub and walk in shower and also faces the pool and spa. Detached from the main house is a completely remodeled guest house/ casita. Downstairs features a vaulted exposed wood entry with cascading natural light pouring through skylights and feels like a Parisian artists Loft. This house won an ICONIC award for Historic Preservation and a Gold Nugget award from the Pacific Coast Builder Conference for best renovated home and was featured in Phoenix Home and Garden, a Waymo commercial, Zillow and Vrbo. When the owners travel they have had the home very successfully featured as an Airbnb. The owner spared no expense with this Historic; 100 year old Spanish Colonial residence that looks and feels more like a 5 star resort. Fully Modernized yet completely retaining its Historic charm; this home will leave you speechless.
