Historic Register - Prescott, AZ

Historic Register is a Prescott-based community and offers many features home buyers and builders can appreciate. Before purchasing a vintage home in a historical district of Prescott, AZ, you may want to consider some information which may impact your decision. When buying a registered, historical home, PRESERVATION is the key word. Often, folks will walk a historic neighborhood and say to themselves, "Honey, we love this area! Let's move in and change this & that, etc." Be sure you know what is permitted for changes before you even put an offer in. Also consider repairs. Some neighborhoods may require an owner to retrofit the home with "like" materials. Finding roofing, siding, or other materials made specifically for historic homes can not only be difficult, but expensive. For instance, how would you like to walk up to a gorgeous old Victorian on Mount Vernon street and see it roofed with 2016 Santa Fe concrete shingles? Thus the reason for enforcing the idea of preservation.

However, don't let these unknowns stop you. Neighborhoods vary in Prescott regarding the rules for preservation, and often the homes for sale are in immaculate shape already, needing little to no work. Examples of such homes are often found on Mount Vernon Street and the three or four blocks east and west. These streets include Virginia St, Washington St, Arizona St, Pleasant St, Goodwin Street, Alarcon St, and Marina St. Heading further to the west, historic districts can be found near Park Avenue, Coronado Ave, Redondo St, Hill Ave, and more.
