Originally published 20 years ago in Phoenix Home & Garden magazine, this residence was recently enhanced by its current owners, who honored the property’s history by restoring and maintaining many of its original features, inside and out. Among the updates: stables at the rear of the property were converted to home offices, and the landscape was lovingly re-created to evoke the charm of Spanish colonial hacienda style.
