Property Description
The Rubi Mansion--arguably one of Downtown Tucson's most iconic historic properties--stands proudly in the heart of Tucson's vibrant Commercial and Infill District, directly across from Armory Park. Built in 1907 for Senator Owen T. Rouse, this extraordinary property has been thoughtfully restored-preserving the craftsmanship and character that define its rich history while seamlessly blending modern comfort. Throughout the property, original architectural details remain beautifully intact, including the original doors, intricate moldings, hardwood floors, grand wood staircase and banisters, built-in cabinetry, hand-painted concrete tile, and the original City of Tucson Seal showcased on the front porch. On the main level, a grand entry foyer welcomes guests and flows into elegant formal living and dining rooms which can easily be converted into offices, each anchored by a historic fireplace. A spacious family room, that again can serve as an office and kitchen that has been modified in recent years to accommodate catering.
The second-floor features four spacious bedrooms, two of which have access to original wrought-iron balconies, along with two beautifully appointed bathrooms.
Completing the property is the carriage house, offering exceptional flexibility as a guest suite, artist's studio, private office, or creative workspace. Rich in history, architectural significance, and endless possibilities, The Rubi Mansion has served as a distinguished private residence, an art museum, and a venue for countless memorable gatherings. Today, it presents a rare opportunity to own one of Tucson's most celebrated landmarks and write the next chapter in its remarkable story.
