Welcome to the c.1931 Patrick W. and Honora Smith House, an architectural jewel in the Coronado historic district. This enchanting English tudor cottage maintains its early 20th century architectural detailing while offering the comforts and conveniences of today. Whether you’re drawn to its distinctive charm or its historical pedigree, this is a rare opportunity to own a wonderfully preserved piece of Phoenix history.
From the moment you arrive, the home’s fairytale charm begins to unfold. A herringbone-patterned paver path guides you through a thoughtfully landscaped front garden, where varietal lavender dances in the breeze, a flourishing Lisbon lemon tree offers sun-kissed fruit, and a lush lawn sits beyond a new paver-lined front patio. The original face brick façade is beautifully accented by a curved entry stoop, a whimsical mint green front door, a rectangular display niche and windows adorned with brick arches. Overhead, a ‘gingerbread-style’ slate roof nods to traditional Tudor design—it’s constructed of interlocking aluminum shingles and backed by a transferable limited lifetime manufacturer’s warranty. Adding both charm and function, the original Hollywood drive has been expanded with pavers, while a RV gate offers secured parking for vehicles and toys, as well as access to the rear yard.
Step inside to discover refined interiors, original charm and a design-forward aesthetic. At the heart of the living space, a striking barrel-vaulted ceiling—an original architectural feature—adds a sense of grandeur. New engineered hardwood flooring flows throughout the home, complemented by fresh baseboards. Arched entryways echo the home’s Tudor roots, offering soft transitions between rooms and enhancing the architectural flow. Preserved plaster walls are paired with restored windows that are elegantly framed with wrap-around drapery for a tailored finish. A contemporary chandelier complements the space. A classic brick fireplace anchors the space, complete with textured plaster finish, wood mantel and tiled hearth. Gas is plumbed to the fireplace and ready for a gas insert.
The galley kitchen has been entirely redesigned showcasing earthy green cabinetry that extends to the ceiling with champagne bronze hardware and fixtures, wood display shelves, quartz countertops, glazed porcelain tile backsplash and stainless steel appliance package. The formal dreamy dining room is situated between the living room and kitchen making for easy entertaining.
Two original bedrooms brim with character, from their vintage hardware to their light-filled windows and both with ample closets; a rare luxury in historic homes. The completely reimagined bathroom merges artisanal elegance with modern utility. A walk-in shower wrapped in glazed porcelain tile is paired with a Delta rain head + hand spray shower system and frameless glass panel creating a spa-like atmosphere that feels both luxurious and timeless. Underfoot, matte black Cle terracotta tile lends depth and texture, while a custom walnut vanity topped with a custom concrete counter, vessel sink + backlit mirror complete the space. A refreshed interior laundry room can accommodate pantry storage and offers rear yard access—stacked LG washer and dryer convey with the sale.
The rear yard is fully landscaped and includes a 10’ x 14’ storage shed. Outdoor movie night just got cooler, with an attached movie screen on the side of the shed and a sitting area bordered by an elevated garden. The surrounding block wall was installed in 2023 and features the one mural to rule them all—the most purrrrrrrrfect Lord of The Rings custom mural just outside the dining room window. The rear outdoor space offers plenty of room for a future pool, guest house, detached garage and/or home expansion.
Additional features you don’t want to miss: original built-ins including phone niche with sconce light, built-in linen cabinetry, dual flush toilet, tudor rose wallpaper, google thermostat, lockable mail box, hardwired smoke detectors, all new cover plates for switches + outlets, new floor outlets, doorbell camera, and new sprinkler system servicing the front yard.
The home has historic designation on the National Register of Historic Places and eligibility for property tax incentives (currently receiving a 50% reduction for owner-occupants). Located on one of Coronado’s most visually captivating streets, you’ll enjoy easy access to beloved neighborhood spots including Coronado Park, The Coronado, Ollie Vaughn’s, The Main Ingredient, Pizzeria Bianco, and Casa Corazon. Just minutes from downtown Phoenix, ASU, Sky Harbor, light rail and major freeways. Many new walkable destinations are in the works including the Miracle Mile with brand new Wilderness Brewery and new Chop Shop location.
This enchanting English Tudor cottage has been lovingly restored, radiating character in every detail and offers a remarkably spacious feel that far exceeds its square footage. If you are looking for more space down the road, architectural plans from Studio Mishkan for future addition designs convey with the sale.
