1420 Third South Street Clarkdale, AZ 86324

Timeless character meets thoughtful modernization in the heart of Historic Clarkdale. This beautifully restored Spanish Colonial Revival bungalow offers a rare opportunity to own a home that honors its architectural past while delivering the comfort, functionality, and upgrades expected today. From the moment you arrive, the distinctive Spanish-inspired façade, custom iron railings, and welcoming covered front porch create an immediate sense of place. It is an ideal setting to enjoy quiet mornings, colorful Arizona sunsets, sweeping mountain and valley views, and the peaceful surroundings that make historic Clarkdale so special. Inside, the home's original character remains beautifully intact. Birdseye maple flooring, 9-foot ceilings, preserved cabinetry, and period details give the residence an authenticity that cannot be recreated. Rather than simply remodeled, the home has been carefully enhanced with finishes and improvements chosen to complement its history.

The kitchen balances vintage charm with everyday convenience, featuring granite countertops, original cabinetry, a designer backsplash, white ceramic sink, reverse osmosis system, gas range, dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave vented through the original chimney, and a stackable washer and dryer.

The remodeled bathroom is equally distinctive, centered around a classic cast-iron clawfoot tub and accented by artisan tile, a copper vessel sink set into a Mexican pine vanity, oil-rubbed bronze fixtures, custom lighting, and upgraded ventilation. The space has been thoughtfully reconfigured for improved comfort and functionality while retaining its period appeal.

Extensive improvements throughout the property provide confidence well beyond its beautiful finishes. Updates include whole-house PEX plumbing and updated drain lines, upgraded electrical service with a new panel and garage subpanel, blown-in attic insulation, sealed HVAC ductwork, whole-house water filtration with reverse osmosis, instant hot water, updated lighting, refined wall textures, and beautifully refinished original maple flooring.

The primary bedroom and walk-in closet offer a comfortable and serene retreat with tile flooring, cedar detailing, custom window treatments, and upgraded lighting.

Outdoor living is equally inviting. A substantial pergola-covered patio creates a private outdoor room perfect for dining, entertaining, or relaxing beneath Clarkdale's clear skies. Low-maintenance desert landscaping is complemented by two mature mulberry trees that provide beauty and welcome shade.

The former carport has been enclosed to create a versatile garage and workshop area with generous temperature-controlled storage. Additional improvements include structural upgrades to the garage and alley wall, enhanced drainage, durable steel siding, and a professionally resealed roof.

Perhaps one of the home's greatest luxuries is its location. Downtown Clarkdale is just a short stroll away, offering concerts, festivals, restaurants, museums, the library, community events, and local gathering places. The Verde River, Old Town Cottonwood, and historic Jerome are only minutes away, while Sedona's iconic red rock landscape is approximately twenty minutes from your door.

Rich in history yet exceptionally livable, this is more than a beautifully restored home. It is a property with architectural soul, meaningful improvements, inviting indoor-outdoor spaces, and a wonderfully walkable lifestyle in one of the Verde Valley's most distinctive communities.

A rare opportunity to own a piece of Historic Clarkdale history--thoughtfully preserved and beautifully prepared for its next chapter.
