The property has an unmistakable old-Tucson character, with handcrafted details and influences inspired by traditional Sonoran Desert adobe homes and old Mexico. Throughout the compound are hand-painted tile, Saltillo and terracotta flooring, stained glass, carved wood, wrought-iron accents, adobe niches, mosaics, terracotta vessels and other unique details that give the property a collected, artistic feel.The main adobe residence is centered around a large living room with substantial hand-finished adobe walls, coved ceilings, wood floors and a traditional fireplace. Three bedrooms branch from the central living space. The separate one-bedroom guest house includes a kitchen, living area and bath and provides a more conventional independent living space. A third adobe structure serves as an artist studio/workshop.The generous double lot allows the buildings to be arranged more like a private adobe compound than a typical residential property, with courtyards, shaded portals, ramadas, patios and gravel pathways connecting the spaces. A central courtyard features a mature mesquite, niches and an area for a fountain, while other areas offer opportunities for gardens, outdoor gathering spaces and creative use.This is a highly individual property with architectural character, history and potential that would be difficult to replicate today. The property is a substantial fixer and will require significant work and investment, offering an opportunity for the next owner to restore and reimagine this unusual Tucson compound.
