These 4 classic mid-century homes (1205-1219) were the original model homes for the budget-conscious subdivision, in the 1940s. Fast forward to 2014 and Woodlawn Park still offers affordable ranch-style homes, adjacent to the city core. This is a rare opportunity to purchase an extensively modernized and re-designed home, with fresh and stylish finishes. The 3 homes directly to the West are all going to be updated and refreshed like 1205 W. Indian School Rd.
Embracing its urban location, the owner has created a wonderful opportunity for a live or work space. Create a buzzworthy destination, with a business that interacts with the local community and offers enormous exposure, benefiting from its visible street frontage. The 3 properties directly to the East of this home were rezoned from single-family detached residences (R-3) to office space (C-0). The current R-3 zoning and the location could make it eligible for live/work opportunities, if the city allows for an overlay.
This sweet ranch home's exterior has been revived with new exterior stucco, new paint, new decorative shutters, new pony-walled courtyard with paver walkway and patio area and new easy-care landscaping.
The living space is open and flexible, harkening a contemporary loft space. Wood plank tile flooring flows seamlessly throughout the home, with no carpet or flooring transitions. Enjoy front and rear patio access from the great room, which opens into the kitchen and dining space.
The modern cottage kitchen is well-appointed with white beadboard wood cabinetry, slab granite countertops, undermount sink, icicle glass mosaic tile backsplash, chic kitchen island, custom oversized walk-in pantry and stainless steel appliances including gas range/oven, dishwasher and built-in microwave. A formal dining is located off the kitchen, in the great room. A gorgeous modern drum lighting fixture serves to define the dining area.
All new upgrades and finishes throughout: raised ceilings, wood plank tile floors, contemporary ceiling fans, designer paint palette, recessed lighting, dual pane/low-E windows, pull-down cellular shades, baseboards, trim, hardware and raised panel doors.
The bathroom is brand new with crisp and contemporary finishes. A white beadboard vanity matches the kitchen, with a slab granite counter, undermount porcelain sink and new plumbing fixtures. The cast-iron tub is finished with a sleek white subway tile and ornamental tile trim line. Attractive lighting and decorative wall mirror accent the space.
An inside laundry/mud room is spacious and offers room for everyday storage. There is plenty of room to add a micro office space, if desired.
The home is modern, fresh and functional. The major systems have been updated including new architectural dimensional roof, new electrical runs, new plumbing and fixtures, new energy-star gas water heater and newer, recently-serviced central air conditioning system with gas pack heater.
Parking is a breeze with the custom motor court and front/rear drive gates. High-end paver hardscape surfaces jazz up the courtyard, driveway and patio. A new block wall surrounds the rear yard. The landscaping onsite has been professionally refreshed with new plantings and irrigation system with timer.
The location offers a Walkscore of 71/100, which is defined as 'very walkable'. Copperstar coffee, Starbucks, The Clarendon/Gallo Blanco, Lux Coffeebar, Melrose Kitchen, Fresh and Easy, Antique Sugar, Retro Ranch, Cleo and Clementine, Melrose Pharmacy and CVS are all within ½ mile of the home. Hop on the light rail at Central and Indian School to get downtown or walk to Melrose on 7th, for some of the valley's best indie/vintage shopping. Its just a little over a mile to Steele Indian School park, which offers some of Phoenix's best outdoor public space including a dog park, sports courts, playground, shaded ramadas, lake, pond, amphitheater, gardens and is host to outdoor events such as movie nights and yoga classes.
