Description

Introducing a charming 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom house nestled in Phoenix. Not far from the city's essentials with easy access to Highways 51 and 101, this home offers a naturally landscaped front yard along with a mailbox that features a lighted address sign. The interior invites with a vaulted ceiling in the family room complemented by wall-to-wall windows letting in natural light. The kitchen sports beautiful cabinets, corian countertops, and a tiled backsplash. Completing the communal spaces are a breakfast bar & the family room's cozy heartwarming fireplace. The bathroom accommodates double sinks. Tile and wood floors spread across the entire house, resulting in an elegant and easy to clean interior. The backyard, apart from having a covered patio for outdoor relaxation, provides room for personal customization. Best of all, the property has no HOA fees. An RV gate also allows for the toys to be stored in back. Notable updates include AC and roof, replaced in 2016, freshly painted exterior in 2018, and partially new fencing in 2024. This delightful home strikes a balance between comfort and practicality, suited for those who value simplicity and functionality in their living space.

New Farm sink and faucet currently on que to be installed.
