2904 E Placita Posada Real

Description

Posada Real Townhouses rarely come on the market. This 2 bed/2bath (en suite) is one of only 16 historic townhomes designed by the renowned architect Juan Worner Baz and developed by John and Helen Murphey. Posada Real Townhomes blends Baz's Mexican heritage with his modernist sensibility. The home is located at the end of a cul-de-sac allowing more privacy and is the only home with both a garage and carport. The home is entered through the northwestern courtyard framed by beautiful burnt Adobe bricks. The living room and main bedroom both extend out to the patio, which with its lush desert landscape creates a fully private setting and in the evening you can see the city lights below. The floor to ceiling glass in the living and bedroom connects the interior to the patios, inviting the intimacy that Taro Akutagawa, a Japanese American landscape designer, envisioned when creating the seamless connection between the materiality of the homes and the draw of the desert landscape which he paired with Japanese design. One of the two back patios has been partially enclosed, adding ample room that can be used for either an office, studio or workout room. From the two back patios, you can take the stone pathway through lush desert landscaping to the community pool. The private patios on either side of the home, allows for the outdoor spaces to be enjoyed at different times of the day.
