Property Description
Updated and ideally positioned in the heart of Scottsdale, this 4 bedroom, 2 bath single level home combines meaningful renovations with the open layout feel everyone wants. Bright natural light fills the main living space, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere from the moment you step inside. The oversized south facing backyard is where this property truly stands apart. A mature Chinese Pistache tree anchors the yard with shade and character, while the offset updated pool maximizes usable space rather than placing the pool in the center of everything. There is plenty of room to gather around the barbecue and grill station, creating a natural setting for weekend cookouts and relaxed evenings. The shaded pergola is perfect for watching a game or hosting an outdoor movie night, with bistro lighting adding just the right touch of ambiance after sunset. Major improvements include a fully remodeled kitchen, updated flooring, remodeled bathrooms, upgraded appliances, and backyard enhancements including turf, along with additional thoughtful upgrades completed throughout the home. Less than ten minutes from Old Town Scottsdale and Fashion Square, this location provides quick access to top rated dining, shopping, golf, and entertainment. Close proximity to Loop 101 allows for easy commuting to Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport and major employment centers, while the neighborhood itself maintains a quiet feel. Served by the Scottsdale Unified School District, including Pueblo Elementary School, Mohave Middle School, and Saguaro High School, all less than 5 minutes away! This is your opportunity to own a wonderful full time residence or position the home as a premium VRBO, offering quality, thoughtful design, and amenities that support long term enjoyment and strong investment potential.
