Property Description

The c. 1948 P.M. & Edna Laughrun Residence: A Stunning Transformation in the Prestigious Medlock Historic District. This Spanish Colonial Revival ranch home has been completely reimagined from the ground up, blending historic charm with modern luxury. Situated on an expansive, irrigated half-acre estate lot, this fully remodeled gem offers a rare opportunity to enjoy historic living without compromising on contemporary comforts. No detail was overlooked in this down-to-the-studs renovation, which thoughtfully preserved key architectural elements while introducing high-end finishes and updates throughout. The home still boasts its iconic brick exterior, stained wood soffits, and enchanting Mission-tiled roof, which was fully replaced in November 2021. Original coved ceilings, large picture windows, and the charming corner wood-burning fireplace have been meticulously restored to honor the home's heritage. The completely redesigned interior features a stunning modern kitchen with custom cabinetry, luxury countertops, state-of-the-art Thermador appliances, and updated fixtures. Bathrooms have been artfully refreshed while honoring their mid-century design. Step outside to your private oasis straight out of a classic Hollywood film. The backyard is a showstopper, featuring expansive brick-lined patios, a charming original water feature, mature park-like grounds, towering palm trees, and a preserved brick BBQ area. Romantic covered porches frame both the front and rear of the home, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. A stately ~140' driveway leads to a fully functioning 450-square-foot detached guest house complete with a kitchenette, bathroom, and laundry. Currently rented (month to month) for $1,600 per month, this space offers incredible flexibility for generating income or hosting extended guests. Behind the guest house lies an RV slab and gated alley access, complete with a recently installed metal fence and gate. Located within walking distance of some of Phoenix's best dining, shopping, and cultural destinations, including Postino, Windsor, Joyride, The Henry, Changing Hands, and Uptown Farmers Market, this home offers the ultimate in walkable living. Enjoy quick access to the light rail, downtown, and the 51 freeway, while residing in the coveted Madison School District. Move-in ready and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this property currently qualifies for a 50% property tax savings for owner-occupants. With nearly half an acre of land and R-3 zoning, the potential for future expansion or enhancement is boundless. Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of history that seamlessly blends timeless charm with every modern convenience. Your dream home on Pasadena Avenue awaits!
