c.1928 adobe located in the historic Barrio Santa Rita neighborhood. This home rests on a larger 0.19 acre corner lot and was built for our desert climate. The large east and west-facing porches shading the thick adobe walls of the home, keeping the sun and heat at bay while the thermal mass of the mud adobe keeps the home cool during the summer and warm during the winter. The home had seen a major renovation in 2006 upgrading electrical and plumbing systems while retaining original features like fir wood and colored concrete floor and claw foot tub. The galley-style kitchen has alder cabinetry and Mexican tile countertops. The larger lot offers room to expand or just have an urban garden while still allowing space for off-street parking plus easy access to the University of Arizona.
