Why they chose this property
The historic Blenman Elm neighborhood was established in 1900 and is said to be the "vanguard" of the ranch-style home in Tucson. Architecturally significant, the neighborhood features 17 styles of homes that were popular between the 1920s and the 1950s, including 21 homes built by Swiss-born Tucson architect Josias Joesler.
It is a diverse neighborhood with pockets of wildlife you might not expect in the city. Historical landmarks dot the Blenman Elm landscape, including the Arizona Inn, which opened in 1930; SS. Peter and Paul Catholic Church and School, which opened in 1931; and Blenman Elementary School, which rang its bells for the first time in 1942.
Blenman Elm is the 3rd most walkable neighborhood in Tucson. With a bike score of 95 and a wallk score of 71, it is just a 10-minute walk/2-minute drive to the historic Arizona Inn, a 4-minute drive to University Medical Center, and a 4-minute drive to University of Arizona
Dining ranges from upscale pizzerias, to colorful Mexican cantinas serving homestyle tamales and enchiladas, to sports bars and brewpubs with featuring impressive happy hour specials. Himmel Park has tree-lined paths for jogging and cycling, a summer pool and open-air theater in the fall.
Bree is a native Tucsonan and know all the great spots to visit while you're in town! Once you book, we'll send you a link to our Ultimate Tucson Guidebook with all the details.
