A Rare Architectural Gem by Luis Salazar in Historic Coronado: Discover a meticulously crafted modern sanctuary at 867 East Windsor Ave, a 4 bedroom, 3 bath home that embodies thoughtful design and artistic vision. This exceptional property sits on an expansive 8,350 square foot lot with coveted frontage facing Windsor… Read More Park (AKA Oval Park), offering serene park views and an enviable north-south exposure. This residence was owned and lovingly transformed by renowned Phoenix architect Luis Salazar, who opened Salazar Associates Architects in 1977. Over nearly five decades, Salazar established himself as a distinguished voice in Phoenix-area modern architecture, completing diverse residential, commercial, industrial, and environmental projects throughout Phoenix, and the surrounding cities. Known for his discerning eye and commitment to sustainable, energy-efficient design, Salazar brought his signature modern aesthetic and attention to detail to every aspect of this property, creating a zen-like compound that reflects both his architectural prowess and his artistic sensibilities as a photographer. The home showcases Salazar's masterful vision through countless thoughtful improvements: an oversized 400-amp electrical panel, dual-pane aluminum windows throughout, polished and stained concrete flooring, an added office with multiple work spaces, and ample natural light on the rear of the home, and solid wood panel interior doors t/o. The striking modern Lucite front door welcomes you into a space where clean lines meet warm functionality. The industrial-style architectural kitchen features stainless steel countertops and backsplash, higher-end cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, skylights, and a charming corner window. Upgraded Electrolux refrigerator, Maytag dishwasher, and a 4-burner gas range with griddle complete this chef-worthy modern space. The kitchen flow is partly open-concept into the inviting living room and formal dining space, framed by bookshelves. The thoughtful split floor plan offers two possible primary suites, each with dedicated bathrooms. The rear primary suite connects to a three-quarter bath, large double closet, and convenient interior dedicated laundry room access. Throughout the home, custom built-in shelving, solar tubes, glass tile surrounds, and birch wall details demonstrate the architect's commitment to both beauty and utility. For artists, makers, and creative professionals, this property is a dream. The expansive grounds include three distinct workshop spaces: a large finished shed with heavy-duty storage and corrugated metal roofing, a specialized darkroom with sub-panel and newer electrical designed by Salazar for his photography work, and an additional yard shed for tools and supplies. The outdoor spaces reflect Salazar's design philosophy of mindful integration with the desert landscape. Special cactus gardens featuring totem cacti, mature orchid and olive trees, an architectural accent wall, and extensive exposed aggregate concrete on both front and rear patios create visual interest from every angle. A concrete paver walkway leads you through this meditative landscape. Parking is abundant and versatile: rear-entry slab parking accessed via the alley, two additional slab spaces in front, and two covered carport spaces. Modern upgrades and features include a Rinnai tankless gas water heater, Goodman furnace and air handler, mini-split in the rear office addition, timed irrigation throughout, exterior gutter system, on-site composter, and partially upgraded sewer system. A newer roof provides peace of mind. Every detail of 867 East Windsor Avenue conveys intentionality, from the architectural interest visible at every view to the meditative quality of the spaces. This is more than a home; it's a thoughtfully curated environment that honors modern design principles while embracing the unique character of desert living. The entire property radiates the care and vision of an architect who understood that great design serves both function and soul. Experience architectural excellence in one of Phoenix's most desirable historic neighborhoods, located on one of the most special park framing blocks in all of the area. The property's prime location directly facing Windsor Park, affectionately known as Oval Park or Country Club Oval, is truly one of its most extraordinary features. Nestled between 8th and 10th Streets on Windsor Avenue, this cherished 2.5-acre elliptical public park serves as the beating heart of the NW quadrant of the Coronado Historic District, and has been bringing neighbors together since the post-war era. Surrounded by historic lamp posts and a canopy of mature shade trees, the park offers a lush, tranquil environment that provides flood irrigation to maintain its verdant beauty year-round. The park is a vibrant community gathering place where residents and visitors have enjoyed evening movies in the park, picnics, friendly soccer matches, leisurely walks along well-maintained pathways, and afternoons in the play area. It's wonderfully dog friendly and play friendly, creating a walkable, intimate atmosphere that feels surprisingly private despite being a public space. The park's unique oval design offers stunning juxtaposed views of Central Avenue's downtown high-rise buildings against the serene suburban landscape, making it a peaceful urban oasis that serves as an extension of residents' front yards and a testament to thoughtful mid-century neighborhood planning.
