In the Pink: Enchanting Adobe Home in Phoenix Quickly Captivates a Buyer

By: Realtor.com 

One of the most adorable adobe homes we’ve ever seen appears to have found a buyer after just a few weeks on the market.

The three-bedroom, 1.5-bath house at 529 W Encanto Boulevard in Phoenix was listed for $734,900 and is now marked as “contingent.”

Everything about this delightful, 1,826-square-foot dwelling draws you in, from the pink-toned exterior with arched entryways to the flagstoned, private backyard with built-in, adobe benches.

The outdoor oasis also includes a hot tub, built-in barbecue, and beehive fireplace.

In another outdoor alcove, you’ll find a potting area any gardener would love, tucked alongside an already impressive landscape, designed by architect Luis Salazar.

Other al fresco highlights include a fountain, mural, and 150-square-foot accessory structure that could be used as a sauna, office, or studio.

Inside, new upgrades mingle with older features for a refreshingly modern feel that retains much of the Arizona home’s original 1920 charm. The cute kitchen serves up custom cabinets, granite-slab counters, and a copper-toned hood, while the finished basement could be used as a wine cellar or private workspace.

Barreled ceilings, arched alcoves, and oak hardwood floors are found throughout, as are several less-obvious features—such as the hidden, in-wall phone bench.

And with nearly 8,000 square feet of outdoor living space, the property has a lot to offer, all within close proximity to the heart of Phoenix.
