Front porch highlights the bungalow-style architecture. Plenty of room to watch the fireworks or monsoons from your front porch!

View from the front door. Fireplace with stone and granite hearth and mantle.

This room is bright and comfortable year round.

Bright and airy dining room. You will find tall ceilings throughout the home, even in the storage spaces.

Dining room is separated from the living room by built-in bookshelves, probably original. Still an open feel between the two.

View from the dining room entrance. The walk-in pantry's built-in cabinets go all the way up to the ceiling (not pictured). Notice the extra storage under the granite window bench.

Updated stainless steel appliances. Granite countertops. Sink faces outward toward the side of the house. Custom shelves over the two large kitchen windows are perfect for plants, small appliances, etc.

The electric oven/range is less than a year old and features air fry and convection settings... and more! New backsplash in a rustic subway tile.

Door to the basement is off the kitchen. Basement is perfectly suited to storage, with room for large shelving along three sides of the room. Also provides access to the crawlspace under the house.

First room of the primary suite. Originally two separate rooms, together they make a nice combination. In the hallway you can see a built-in linen closet with glass doors and large drawers down low. It is at least three feet deep. Storage cabinet above goes to the ceiling.

There are no photos of the inside of the TWO closets in this suite, but they are approx 4ftx3ft and go all the way to the ceiling, featuring built in shelves and cubbies.

This room and two of the bedrooms look out over the raised garden and lime tree on the north side of the house.

Walk through the pass-through and you are in your primary bedroom, featuring another closet and en-suite full bathroom, as well as views of the garden.

The primary bath is connected to the bedroom and features niches above the door height perfect for displaying artwork or storage. (not pictured)

Spacious second bedroom. New carpet throughout all three bedrooms.

The inside of the closet in this room is not pictured, but the closet is at least six feet deep with built in storage up high.

This charming bedroom has a separate entrance to the house. It would make the perfect reading room, home office, creative space or even an exercise room. Windows overlook the lime tree and garden.

Bathroom at the end of the hallway between bedrooms 1 and 2.

We call it "the cottage" because it is the smaller and cozier guesthouse. Access through the back yard.

This smaller guesthouse has cable and T-line connections to the main house.

Small sitting or dining area boasts a niche designed to accommodate a small dorm-sized fridge and small microwave. It also has a cabinet above.

This photo does not do the fully tiled shower justice. Shower is extended size with a tile bench at the end.

The guesthouse has plenty of parking right out front.

View from the front door of the seating area/dining area (currently furnished with a bed) and the galley kitchen.

Can be configured as a seating or dining area (or apparently a place to sleep).

Galley kitchen with view of the front door. Stainless/black oven/range and microwave convey with the house.

Beautiful granite countertops and coordinating mosaic tile in the kitchen and bath. Large picture window to the back yard.

Massive bedroom (converted garage) will accommodate all your bedroom furniture with room to spare for seating/entertainment area.

The alder-covered beams and trim, and lovely french doors warm the space. French doors open to the back yard.

Granite countertops, mosaic tile and other touches extend into the full bathroom.

Stackable washer and dryer will convey with the home.

View of the backyard looking toward the back of the guesthouse.

The side entrance to the main house is convenient and shaded.

There is ample parking on this property for any trailer, RV, boat, etc. you may enjoy. No HOA. Freshly landscaped-- flattened, compacted and fresh gravel.

Gazebo suitable for a barbecue or gathering. The yard has many ornamental low-water bushes, and even a pomegranate tree.

Hidden Gem: Raised Vegetable Garden and Custom chicken coop with enclosure.

Includes three large raised garden beds (24" tall) and a mature asparagus patch and Mexican Lime tree.

Floorplans of the guest houses are not included.

Supplements

A rare asset in Mesa, the partially finished basement offers ample additional storage. Fireplace with stone facade and granite hearth and mantle create a cozy craftsman-style living area. Both kitchens feature updated stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and tile backsplashes. The larger guesthouse (approx 750 sq ft) has a full galley kitchen, full size bathroom with tub and shower, stackable washer/dryer, huge bedroom, and a dining/seating area. It also has French doors which lead out into the back yard. The smaller guesthouse ("The Cottage") (230 sq ft) features an expanded step-in shower, cabinets, and a niche designed for a small microwave and refrigerator. All interiors freshly painted. New carpet in bedrooms. Fresh gravel in driveway. The tax records state that this property was constructed in 1945; however, we have thorough documentation that it is much older, finished in 1919. This property was built by Harry Ellsworth, who moved to Mesa from Show Low so his son could go to high school. The full narrative as shared personally by Harry's grandson Dean, and supported by historical accounts, can be found in the documents in this listing. A summary of the physical property: Main house: 1950 sq. ft.; Larger guesthouse with full kitchen, bath, stackable laundry: approx 750 sq. ft.; smaller guesthouse with microwave/mini fridge niche and expanded shower: 230 sq. ft. Partial basement is included in the square footage of the main house, but is only partially finished. Total sq.ft. 2,930.
