New owner to fix up historic PV adobe home
Filed under: General, Real Estate
Posted by: Lillian Wong @ 6:08 pm

The home had been on the market a year ago for $2.6 million.

John Pappas bought it in February for $975,000.

He plans to restore and preserve the house, which was also the home of architect Bennie Gonzales, who among other things designed Scottsdale’s City Hall and main library.

Gonzales, who died in December at 84, did a major addition to the original MacDonald adobe.

Elsa Rector, who lived in the historic home from 1992 to last year, had a deep attachment to the home and was hoping that it would not become another Paradise Valley teardown.

It appears her wish will come true.
