About this House

Gorgeous, well kept home, built in 1939, only a block away from Benson Unified School District. Tons of curb appeal! The original hardwood floors, weighted rope windows and small original details throughout will steal your heart! The home has two bedrooms downstairs with a Jack and Jill bath between them. The staircase leads to a third bedroom area with a half bath, attic storage and storage cubbies. Enjoy neighborhood BBQ's on this covered patio that looks out on three benson lots, surrounded by privacy fencing. The wooden ''box'' on the patio has storage on both sides for yard work tools and opens to a staircase that leads to a root cellar and open view of the crawlspace. There is a dog run and storage shed on the west side of the home. You need to see this one to truly appreciate it!

  • MVR
    "Great little community but not much for kids. Easy lay back great neighborhood and neighbors. Easy drive to Tucson or Sierra Vista."
  • janetroberts225@yahoo.com
    "I love living at the end of this cul de sac. It is quiet but still hear the muted sounds of the train going through town. The view of the mountains, sunrise and sunsets are unbeatable! Neighbors are friendly yet respect your privacy."
  • Pamelaclarke2001
    "Small town. Small town in the mountains of Arizona. That pretty much says everything about it....."
  • Azhapp
    "Fantastic rural neighborhood. Lovely home, great shop with running water and electricity. 360-degree mountain views. "
  • Azhapp
    "The neighbors are terrific, the views are amazing. Quiet, out of the hustle-and-bustle, but close enough to Benson for Ace and WalMart/Safeway, and an occasional trip to Tucson for the amenities of a city...then escape back home. "
  • Kgefroh
    "i live in the area, and am raising my family here."
  • phoenix_5151
    "Beautiful Mountain views, Clean quiet neighborhood. More stars then the planetarium. Breath taking view of monsoon storms. Ideal for outdoor loving family or retirees. All the comforts and conveniences without the city hustle and bustle."
  • csr
    "WalMart and Safeway, a few I-10 motels, an Amtrak stop without cover or security, and a town that cannot make up its mind as to what it wants to be when it grows up, that is Benson Arizona.."
