Overview

Description

Incredible opportunity to own a stylish and updated ranch-style home in the heart of Tempe with NO HOA, close to shopping, restaurants, schools, and quick access to the 101 and 60 highways. The home is thoughtfully designed, with faux wood tile throughout the main living areas, a modern painted brick fireplace in the living room, and a gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a bar height island for casual dining/seating. The backyard has been completely revamped to be both water-conscious and low-maintenance with a large turf yard surrounded by desert plants, plus a covered patio that's perfect for evening meals or a coffee in the morning. With no HOA and its close proximity to ASU's Tempe campus and other entertainment, this could also be a great option for investors.
