This remodeled 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath single-story home offers a rare combination of comfort and convenience-- including a NEW VARIABLE SPEED POOL PUMP, VAULTED CEILINGS, 2-CAR GARAGE with STORAGE, RV Parking, & NO HOA-- with the value trifecta of the ''MAGIC ZIP CODE''-- a Scottsdale address, lower-priced Phoenix utilities/taxes, and Paradise Valley's world-class school district. Experience an open, sun-drenched layout with fresh neutral tones, tile flooring and LED lighting throughout, and a primary suite featuring his-and-hers closets, dual vanity, a Roman tub! The inviting living space features vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, a spacious great room with a fireplace, and an eat-in kitchen, featuring a large kitchen island, ample counter space, premium appliances, and French doors to the private backyard and sparkling diving pool.

The west wing offers a value-add potential for an ADU or flex/guest suite conversion (half bath adjacent to the RV gate--buyer to verify permitting). Centrally located between Loop 101 and Route 51 freeways, residents commute anywhere in the valley quickly: Nightlife in Old Town Scottsdale, dining and shopping at Kierland Commons and Scottsdale Quarter, the Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale, the Arabian Horse Show, and the Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auction at WestWorld. These events draw visitors from around the globe, creating lucrative short-term rental opportunities for homeowners and investors looking to capitalize on the area's growing popularity.

With all major systems serviced, it's move-in ready and energy-efficient for the hot Scottsdale summers.
