Welcome to 1624 Balsa Ave--a one-of-a-kind creative retreat, owned and updated by an artist and interior decorator. This stylish two-bedroom, one-bath home perfectly balances comfort and character. The open living space is bathed in natural light and features a charming wood-burning fireplace, custom maple cabinetry, and a stunning glass door with screened sidelights that lead to a serene back patio. Rustic concrete floors and custom woodwork throughout the home add warmth and a distinct desert vibe. The remodeled bathroom is a showstopper, with hand-applied silver-leafed walls, a spacious walk-in shower, and a rare vintage Kohler sink paired with a Waterworks faucet. Solar panels help keep utility costs low, while a newer mini-split system and vintage maple ceiling fans in every room ensure year-round comfort. Additional upgrades include a new 200-amp electrical panel and a recently replaced roof. Set on 2.5 acres of natural beauty, the property offers a sanctuary-like environment where you can observe indigenous wildlife, including quail, rabbits, and birds, amidst mature landscaping, white sage plants, and vibrant birds-of-paradise trees. The property also boasts a cedar hot tub for soaking up the breathtaking sunsets, a two-car detached garage, and a 40-ft shipping container for storage or creative projects. Partially furnished and ready to inspire, this thoughtfully designed desert gem is waiting to welcome you home.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
