Property Description
Own a piece of Phoenix history. In Encanto Vista Historic District sits architect Fred Weaver's (AIA) 1951 personal residence, hailed as one of the city's finest Mid-Century Modern homes. Signature MCM details include exposed materials (including Geneva steel i-beam framed carport), floor-to-ceiling and clerestory windows, low-pitched roof, tongue-and-groove ceilings, and a dramatic west atrium that fills the home with natural light. Thoughtfully updated to honor Weaver's vision with a new roof, slate flooring, professional kitchen, luxury baths, tankless water heater, electric car charger, and resort-style outdoor spaces with updated cabana and gas fire pit. Steps to Encanto Golf and minutes to downtown. Weaver is celebrated for shaping Phoenix's architectural identity with landmark designs including ASU's Hayden Library, St. Agnes Church, and Valley National (now Chase) Bank at 44th & Camelback (cover of Mid-Century Marvels book).
