The Story
1925-1931 East Lee Street
This extraordinary estate presents a rare opportunity to own a distinctive multi-residence property in one of Tucson's most desirable historic neighborhoods of Blenman Elm-all within a fully enclosed gated private enclave. Built in 1937, the main residence offers 3 Bd/3 Bth-3008 sq ft of refined living space, highlighted by two fireplaces, a wine cellar & its own detached two-car garage. A second 1183 sqft residence provides 2 Bd/1Bth +fireplace & detached two-car garage-ideal accommodations for extended family, guests, or private living quarters. Enhancing the estate is a newer sparkling solar-heated pool & a charming detached 550-sqft 1 Bd/1 Bth guest quarters w/beehive fireplace. An addtl' private 171 sq ft studio space provides remarkable flexibility for guest, office or creative work. The property also includes an additional Studio/Rec Room of 250 sq ft right off the pool. Additionally on the property is a 225 sq ft storage room behind one of the detached garages AND a fully enclosed RV storage space, ensuring exceptional functionality rarely found in historic properties. These 2 additional buildings are NOT currently heated/cooled space so not included in the overall 4912 square footage. They both do however have electricity and overhead lighting. Outdoor living is equally impressive. Multiple courtyards and patios create intimate gathering spaces throughout the grounds, while a beautifully designed outdoor kitchen anchors a vibrant entertaining area with multiple seating spaces, huge shade structure, mature landscaping, alfresco dining, and an outdoor fireplace--perfect for enjoying Tucson's year-round sunshine. The property also qualifies for historic tax benefits, adding further value to this remarkable offering. Ideally located just steps from the Arizona Inn, Banner University Medical Center, and the University of Arizona, this one-of-a-kind compound combines historic charm, privacy, and unmatched versatility in an exceptional central Tucson location. This is a property that truly must be experienced in person to appreciate its scale, character, and possibilities. The two parcels and addresses are being sold together only.
