Get away from it all in the middle of the city!
Lovely post-war historic home in midtown phoenix: get away from it all in the middle of the city! Bright, sunny spacious house surrounded by amazing 0.33 acre yard with desert landscaping available for month or longer rental.

Walking distance to Encanto Park (swimming, tennis, bike paths) and local golf course. Walking distance to local coffee shop/bar, Italian food, and hamburger joint and more. Close to more than a dozen major medical providers in Phoenix. 1.2 miles to Phoenix light rail station on Thomas/Central Ave; 2-5 miles to downtown and midtown art/science/history museums; 4.5 miles to Chase field/Diamondbacks ballpark. House has seven spacious rooms furnished with a gorgeous mix of contemporary and vintage furniture. There are two bedrooms plus a den (can be used as a third bedroom or workspace).

About the host
Hosted by Alice Gibb
I am a college professor and I live and teach biology in Flagstaff, Arizona. If you search online for my first name plus my last name (Gibb) and Northern Arizona University then you will quickly find my academic website to see the kind of work I do,
My husband and I have been married for almost 30 years and we have two bookish college-aged boys. We enjoy reading, gardening, cooking, hiking, kayaking, camping and traveling. Because we live in a quiet mountain town, our favorite places to visit tend to be either big cities or beaches. We spend as much of our vacation time on the Big Island of Hawaii as possible!
