Description

Where historic architecture, irrigated grounds, and Uptown Phoenix living converge, this rare adobe property offers a lifestyle few homes can match. Located in the Historic Medlock Place District, one of the Valley's most sought-after historic neighborhoods, this authentic adobe residence was originally built by renowned Arizona author Oren Arnold and sits on a nearly one-half-acre irrigated lot shaded by mature trees that have graced the property for generations. His appreciation for craftsmanship, storytelling, and Arizona heritage is reflected throughout the home.

Supplements: The 2,505-square-foot property includes a 1,934-square-foot main residence, a separate upstairs guest house, and a detached 231-square-foot studio, a home office, creative space, or multigenerational living. Rich in character, the home features three wood-burning Beehive fireplaces, flagstone flooring, and 10-foot wood-beamed ceilings in the family room. The private backyard presents with expansive irrigated lawns, mature shade trees, and a fenced play pool surrounded by lush landscaping. Recent improvements include a new foam roof completed in 2024 and a block perimeter wall built in 2008. Just minutes from Uptown Plaza, residents enjoy easy access to some of Phoenix's most popular restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, fitness studios, and neighborhood gathering spots. Walk or bike to local favorites while enjoying the charm, character, and sense of community that continue to make Historic Medlock Place one of North Central Phoenix's most desirable neighborhoods.
