Property details

About 1720 W Elm St

The historic Boone House and property is a peaceful natural sanctuary in the midst of the busy city. The natural adobe house was built in 1940 and is listed on the Phoenix Historic Registry. The adobe walls were lovingly repaired and beautifully plastered with adobe in 2021. Truth windows show the original adboe bricks. Other improvements include new HVAC system and upgrades to the plumbing and wiring. A 795 square foot casita was recently added to the property making the home excellent for a multi-generational family, an artist studio or guest suite. Birds and bees visit the native trees and flowers including an Aleppo pine, pomegranates, orange and lemon trees, roselle hibiscus, agave, aloe vera, creosote and other desert plants, nourished by flood irrigation. A fountain and covered patio enhance the peaceful natural experience. The 0.37-acre lot's development was inspired by nature and sustainability and has room for further creative growth and expression.
