Step into the timeless character of this beautiful 2BR 1930s home located just one block from the University of Arizona bike path. With its bungalow style stucco exterior, classic covered porch, and authentic architectural details, this gem exudes vintage Tucson charm inside and out. Inside, you'll find newly refinished hardwood floors, coved ceilings, and a cozy fireplace framed with custom tilework — all glowing with natural light from well-placed windows. The spacious layout offers flexible living and dining areas, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The kitchen combines warmth and character with custom tile countertops, handcrafted accents, and modern stainless-steel appliances, all set atop rich Saltillo tile floors. Out back, enjoy the huge double-fenced yard offering privacy, space for entertaining, gardening, or even a future guest house. A detached garage provides storage or parking flexibility. And the roof on the home was just resealed and maintained (July 2025) for peace of mind. Whether you're looking for a historic home with soul or a smart investment near campus this is it!
