Property Description
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Located on South Scott Avenue, directly across the street from the Arizona Theatre Company, Temple of Music and Art and just 1-minute south of thriving Downtown, this gorgeous 1928-built duplex affords incredible live-in and/or investment opportunities! Situated in the Historic Armory Park District with HC-3 zoning, the property can be used as both a residential or commercial dwelling/rental - live in one side and operate your business out of the other! Charm galore inside with many original details, including grand ceilings, over-sized windows, solid wooden doors, original hardwood flooring, but still including upgrades like a modern kitchen with tasteful white cabinetry, black & white checker flooring, stainless steel prep island, and commercial-grade appliances! Unit 1 houses 1-bedroom, a living area, kitchen, and combined laundry/mud room. Unit 1 is currently used as an Airbnb and is ready to be lived-in. Unit 2 is an open studio space with bathroom and laundry room in the rear, perfect to be used as a live-in art studio or home office - the possibilities are endless. Each unit houses gorgeous bathrooms with black & white tile finishes in the stand-up showers. The passage between both units has been sealed off but can easily be re-opened to create one large single-family home or office space. Out back you can enjoy a large paver parking pad, suitable for up-to 3 cars. Don't need the extra space? Close off a portion to create a serene backyard patio oasis. Living Downtown means walkability with access to the SunLink Street Car that takes you west to the Mercado District and loops back as far east as UArizona and Banner Main Campus. Downtown Tucson offers endless eatery options and venues like the Fox and Rialto Theaters - venture out in the cool evenings to enjoy Tucson's nightlife! This charming home is a MUST-SEE! You'll never want to leave.
