THIS ADORABLE THREE BEDROOM, TWO BATH HOME SITS ON AN OVERSIZED CORNER LOT IN THE HEART OF THE NORTH ENCANTO HISTORIC DISTRICT AND GREETS YOU WITH AN AMERICAN FLAG! THE 1,639 SQ FT HOME MAINTAINS THE CHARM OF ITS 1950 CREATION. THE FORMER MODEL HOME HAS HAD JUST THREE OWNERS WHO HAVE METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED IT AS WELL AS ITS LUSH SURROUNDINGS. FROM THE KOI POND WITH A WATERFALL, TO THE PERGOLA, FLOWER BEDS, CITRUS TREE AND THE RED ORIGINAL RED BRICK WALLS, THIS HOME HAS IT ALL! THE PAVERED FRONT PATIO LENDS ITSELF TO THE RELAXED, COZY ATMOSPHERE OF THIS HOME; THE ENTRYWAY IS UNIQUE AS WELL WITH A SPECIAL ALCOVE FOR SHOES, COATS OR OTHER. INSIDE THE LIVING ROOM THERE IS A GAS FIREPLACE, FRESHLY PAINTED WALLS AND BASEBOARDS AND PLANTATION SHUTTERS. THE FLOORPLAN IS A MASTER BEDROOM SPLIT FOR ADDITIONAL PRIVACY. THE MASTER BATH HAS THE ORIGINAL TILE-SURROUND SHOWER AND COUNTERTOPS. THE 1950'S MIRROR ENCASES AN OVER-SIZED MEDICINE CABINET. THE ADDITIONAL BEDROOMS HAVE FRESH PAINT, WALK-IN CLOSETS AND CEILING FANS. ONE HAS NEW CARPET AND BOTH HAVE PLANTATION SHUTTERS AND ARE NICE-SIZED. THE GUEST BATHROOM HAS A TILED BATH & SHOWER, ORIGINAL TILED COUNTERTOPS AND THE ORIGINAL "HIDE 'N SEEK" TOOTHBRUSH HOLDER!

THE FAMILY ROOM IS SPACIOUS, HAS A NICE-SIZED CLOSET FOR ADDITIONAL STORAGE AND OPENS TO THE BEAUTIFUL BACKYARD PARADISE. THE TOTALLY 1950'S KITCHEN IS UPDATED ENOUGH TO BE FUNCTIONAL BUT MAINTAINS THE AMAZING BEAUTY OF THE ERA. THE CABINETS, TILED COUNTERTOPS, CORNER SINK, SILL AND WINDOWS ALL CAPTURE THE MOMENT! A GAS STOVE IS HIGHLIGHTED BY THE BUILT-IN SPICE RACK AND THE CORNER BOOTH IS ENCASED WITH "NIC NAC" SHELVING. THE UPPER CABINETS HAVE GLASS DOORS AND THE LOWER ONES INCLUDE A LAZY SUSAN AND A BUILT-IN CUTTING BOARD. EVERY CABINET IN THE KITCHEN HAS THE ORIGINAL HANDLES. WHILE THE ORIGINAL SINK HAD TO BE REPLACED, A 1950 REPLICA WAS INSTALLED! A SCALLOPED DECORATIVE BORDER SHOWCASES THE KITCHEN CABINETS. OFF OF THE KITCHEN IS THE LAUNDRY ROOM WITH A LARGE, SHELVED PANTRY. THERE IS A PULL-DOWN IRONING BOARD AND A BROOM CLOSET. BUILT-IN CABINETS PROVIDE MORE STORAGE. THIS HOME SHOWCASES MANY MODERN AMENITITES INCLUDING BOTH A/C AND AN EVAP. COOLER; A TANKLESS WATHER HEATER, CEILING FANS, NEW CARPET; ORIGINAL TILED FLOORING AND PARQUET FLOORS TOO! THERE ARE PLANTATION SHUTTERS ON THE MAJORITY OF THE WINDOWS, VERTICAL WOODEN BLINDS AND HONEYCOMB BLINDS IN THE KITCHEN. A DOOR LEADS FROM THE LAUNDRY ROOM TO THE BACKYARD FOR ADDED CONVENIENCE. PAVERS LEAD TO THE PERGOLA AREA THAT ENCASES THE KOI POND WITH A WATERFALL AND FLOWERED BORDER. IT'S PERFECT FOR RELAXING. THERE ARE MATURE, LUSH SHADE TREES AND A FLOWERBED WITH BULB-FLOWERS THAT MAGICALLY APPEAR ANNUALLY. IT'S BEAUTIFUL! AN "ARIZONA SWEET ORANGE TREE" PRODUCES THE BEST ORANGE JUICE AROUND! A CHILD'S PLAY AREA AND AN AREA THAT LENDS ITSELF TO A FUTURE GARDEN MAKE THIS BACKYARD A HAVEN FOR RELAXING, PLAYING OR TINKERING AROUND. A DETACHED TWO-CAR GARAGE WITH AN ELECTRIC OPENER AND BUILT-IN CABINETS AND AN UNPLUMBED BATHROOM CONVEYS IN "AS IS" CONDITION. THERE IS ADDITIONAL LAND OUTSIDE OF THE W WALL THAT COULD BE READILY UTILIZED FOR MANY THINGS! A TREEHOUSE FOR KID-FUN IS SEATED IN ONE OF THE MATURE FRONTYARD TREES.
