A Rare 1901 Georgian Revival Masterpiece Built for Arizona's Last Territorial Governor.Rich in history and architectural distinction, this exceptional Georgian Revival residence was built in 1901 by Richard E. Sloan, a prominent Arizona attorney whose distinguished career in public service culminated in his appointment as Arizona's last Territorial Governor in 1909 by President William Howard Taft. Governor Sloan served in this role until Arizona achieved statehood, making this home a true cornerstone of Arizona history.Situated on two downtown lots totaling over one-third of an acre, and just minutes from Prescott's iconic Courthouse Square, the estate offers rare space and presence in the heart of the historic district.Spanning 4,137+ square feet, the home features 7 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, thoughtfully arranged across multiple levels. This residence is complemented by an oversized detached 2+ car garage, originally constructed as the home's carriage house, further enhancing its historical authenticity.Architectural details abound. The home showcases a classic hipped roof crowned by a decorative railing surrounding a central roof deck, a striking hallmark of Georgian Revival design. Two-story pilasters, three original fireplaces, and classically detailed eaves reinforce the home's stately proportions and symmetry.Inside, original hardwood floors, millwork, and wall treatments speak to the era's craftsmanship. A grand dual staircase, highlighted by a custom stained-glass window, anchors the generous foyer.The main level offers a formal parlor, expansive entertaining room, and welcoming gathering spaces where notable social events and Territorial-era meetings were once hosted.Authentic period functionality is preserved with servants' quarters and a private stairway leading directly to the kitchen, a rare and cherished detail. The second floor hosts multiple bedrooms and baths, while the third-floor attic--originally designed as a children's playroom--features reinforced beams and flooring built to support early gymnasium equipment and even dancing, a delightful and uncommon feature of the time.With modest, respectful updates that honor its heritage, this legacy estate remains a beautifully preserved example of Early Colonial American architecture and Georgian Revival elegance.A property of this significance--architecturally, historically, and culturally--rarely comes to market. This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own an irreplaceable piece of Prescott's and Arizona's story.
