A custom built coffee station was added to match the existing cabinetry for extra storage without losing the kitchen's character.

Location doesn't get better than this; you are in the heart of Phoenix's cultural core, minutes from the Phoenix Art Museum, Phoenix Theatre, Burton Barr Central Library, and the wider Uptown Arts District. This is a hybrid co-op, meaning buyers are on title and deed to the property while the community operates under a cooperative structure.
