The house was built in 1918 by Charles H. Gable, and was bought by Byron Redden in
1920. The Redden family occupied the house until 1942. Byron Redden arrived in Arizona
from California in the early 1880s. He was a successful rancher and served 25 years as a
zanjero (irrigation canal manager) for the Tempe Canal Co. Redden died at the family home
in 1939.
Although the front and rear porches have been infilled, this house still provides a
modest example of the Bungalow stye retaining the general character of the original house
with its lattice attic vents; crawlspace, and prominent front steps.
