2218 Encanto Drive Northeast

Built in 1932, this authentic Spanish Colonial Revival residence occupies one of the most desirable lots in the Encanto-Palmcroft Historic District. Designed from the period pattern book Homes of the Spanish Type, the ''Casa de Enchanto'' was built for prominent Phoenix physician Dr. Alfred Cosgrove Kingsley. Its adobe bricks were made from earth excavated on site for the basement. Historic character remains throughout, including original cove ceilings, mahogany doors, wrought-iron work, metal casement windows, red-tile roofs, fireplace and walled patio. With wonderful bones and architectural integrity, the home is ready for thoughtful updating and restoration, offering tremendous potential in one of Palmcroft's most coveted settings.
