Back on market with a new price of $489,000 and fresh photography, this beautifully updated 1947 red brick home in the Encanto North Historic District deserves a second look. Set on an oversized corner lot of nearly 7,000 square feet, this single-level residence combines the charm and character buyers want in a historic home with the major improvements they do not want to worry about after closing.

Inside, the layout is open, functional, and move-in ready with no interior steps. The home features granite countertops, wood, tile, and laminate flooring, custom closet build-outs, a dedicated laundry room with built-in cabinetry, and smart home technology that adds convenience without sacrificing character. Major system upgrades include a new HVAC system, tankless water heater, and dual pane windows throughout.

Outside, the property continues to stand out. The detached garage offers upgraded storage, side vehicle entry, and RV gate access, while the front and back yards feature real grass, fresh landscaping, and automatic irrigation. It is a rare combination of historic appeal, usable outdoor space, and practical flexibility in one of Midtown Phoenix’s most established neighborhoods.

Located just minutes from Encanto Park, light rail, Roosevelt Row, and the best of Midtown, this home offers the kind of lifestyle that keeps buyers searching in this area. No HOA. Quiet tree-lined street. Timeless red brick curb appeal. Updated where it counts.
