501 E Moreland St Phoenix, AZ 85004

Listing details for 501 E Moreland St, Phoenix, AZ 85004 : One of two prairie style bungalows in the State of Arizona, the Harry M. Fennemore House was built in 1912 and was listed in the Phoenix Historic Property Register in September 2004. This historic home was lovingly restored with leaded glass built-ins, crown moldings, wood floors, original fixtures, and purportedly the first ceiling fan in Phoenix! The home has two basements, one is finished and used as a studio, the other unfinished but could easily be used as a wine cellar or for extra storage (it includes a cedar closet). The upstairs master bedroom enjoys 360 degree views. The back yard is a private oasis with lush grass, citrus trees, and a heated diving pool with shade structures. Situated within the extremely popular Evans-Churchill neighborhood, which sits directly adjacent to the Downtown Core (home to Roosevelt Row and nationally-recognized arts district that hosts First Fridays), the property is eligible and, with a listing on the National Register, if it is owner-occupied, is then eligible (upon approved application) for property tax relief. A bit of history: Harry M. Fennemore was a founding partner of Fennemore Craig, the 135 year old law firm that helped build the American West. His father, James Fennemore, was the official photographer of the 2nd Powell expedition of the Grand Canyon. A print of Grand Canyon, Colorado River, looking west / Hillers from the Library of Congress hangs in the downstairs and conveys with the home.
