Located in Tucson's Sam Hughes Historic District, this 1950 brick ranch blends mid-century character with thoughtful updates. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features a remodeled kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and updated cabinetry while retaining its original charm. Vintage tiled bathrooms, built-in walnut bookshelves, and a flagstone fireplace reflect the craftsmanship and design of the era. Classic Saltillo tile, wood, and cork flooring run throughout the home, creating a warm and cohesive aesthetic. Dual cooling provides year-round comfort and efficiency.
Covered front and rear porches extend the living space outdoors, overlooking mature xeriscape landscaping complemented by rainwater harvesting tanks, a sustainable, low-maintenance approach well suited to th Sonoran Desert. A detached garage and additional storage provide flexibility for hobbies, projects, or workshop space.
