Description

Absolutely charming and thoughtfully updated, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on a full acre in the heart of Prescott—offering the perfect blend of in-town convenience and country comfort. Inside, you'll find an inviting living room featuring a wood-burning stove, a lit coffered and beamed ceiling, and a custom artisan barn door concealing a clever storage nook. Glass doorway leads to a private patio, ideal for BBQs or relaxing while enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The open kitchen connects seamlessly to the living and dining areas and features newer stainless steel appliances including a gas range, refrigerator, and dishwasher. Both bathrooms have been tastefully updated, including a newly renovated primary suite with upgraded flooring and a modern walk-in shower and plenty of closet space. Primary suite also has access to side patio. Step outside and enjoy lush front and backyard landscaping with irrigation, fruit trees (peach, nectarine, pluot, and dwarf apple), raised garden beds, and a fully fenced backyard. The 12x20 finished shed with tongue-and-groove ceiling makes a perfect art studio, workshop, or flex space. There's ample parking and room to add a garage or guest house. No HOA, and just minutes to downtown, shopping, and schools—this is a rare in-town gem with space, style, and comfort. Recent improvements throughout the home include: newer roof, windows, flooring, upgraded electrical (including a subpanel for a future hot tub), newer water heater, and added insulation for energy efficiency. HVAC system was inspected and serviced in 2025.
