Beautifully maintained gem in the heart of the Phoenix Westwood historic district. Spacious living areas, timeless architectural details, and a prime central Phoenix location make this home a rare opportunity. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its mid-century charm, this home offers peace of mind with an overhaul of the under-slab plumbing system and main line. Both bathrooms were tastefully remodeled in 2023, and the kitchen previously, blending modern functionality with design elements that pay homage to the home's historic roots. Bring your toys, plenty of parking with an RV gate and RV slab with easy entrance off of 23rd Ave. Easy access to downtown, the light rail, dining, shopping, and entertainment, all while living in one of Phoenix's most beloved historic neighborhoods.
Encanto, located between Midtown Phoenix and Downtown Phoenix, is a historic and residential Phoenix neighborhood with a palm-lined park core and a classic street-grid feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Encanto Park and Encanto Boulevard, where shaded paths, lagoons, and weekend activity set the pace. Spanish Colonial Revival and Tudor-style homes sit along broad lawns and mature trees, giving many blocks a quiet, established cadence. Encanto Park Golf Course adds a greenbelt backdrop that shapes daily routines. The Heard Museum and Phoenix Art Museum serve as cultural pillars nearby, with The Clarendon Hotel & Spa adding a local landmark for dining and design.

Single-Family Residence District
A basic purpose of these regulations is to foster the creation of living areas which can assist the establishment of stable, functional neighborhoods. An established pattern of living in this metropolitan area reflects a tradition of single-family occupied dwellings which also emphasize outdoor living. Many of these dwellings are thereby located on relatively large urban or suburban lots.; These regulations provide standards for dwellings built at low and moderate densities. While the predominant housing type is expected to be single-family dwelling, provisions are made for alternative housing types within the same density limits.
