Overview
Description
Supplements: ... (Read more) by day, while strands of bistro lights transform the courtyard into an inviting gathering place after sunset. Even the entrance has a story to tell: a solid wood front door, bookended by hand-carved columns and finished with a charming speakeasy opening, hints at how unique this home is. The surprisingly generous floor plan offers both living and family rooms with an easy connection between spaces. Picture windows, skylights and a solar tube wash the interiors in gorgeous natural light, while ceramic tile + hardwood flooring, brand new, custom plantation shutters and thoughtful architectural details add warmth and character. The kitchen is the true heart of the home, connecting the living spaces and inviting everyone to gather. Abundant cabinetry, stainless appliances and a gas cooktop with custom hood provide plenty of function, while the breakfast bar brings a story of its own. Its countertop once graced a local bowling alley, a wonderfully unexpected piece of Phoenix history. A formal dining space is located right off the kitchen. The oversized walk-in pantry offers room for everything from beautifully organized staples to countertop appliances. A remarkably spacious laundry room goes well beyond laundry, easily doubling as a creative space for crafts, sewing, hobbies or a workshop, with access to the carport. The split-bedroom layout makes this home even more unique, with two oversized ensuite bedrooms, offering exceptional privacy and flexibility. The primary suite feels like a retreat of its own, with hardwood flooring, a gas fireplace, spacious walk-in closet with custom built-ins and French door leading to one of the home's most memorable spaces, a private side courtyard tucked away from the rest of the property. A hot tub, Spanish-style beehive fireplace, brick pavers, colorful architectural accents + planters, landscape lighting and a decorative wrought-iron garden gate create an intimate escape for quiet mornings, evening cocktails or simply unwinding at the end of the day. The primary bath features a modern tiled shower with frameless glass enclosure and product niche. An updated vanity and dual flush toilet round out the primary bath with pops of color at the mirror and medicine cabinet. The second ensuite overlooks the rear yard and offers a spacious closet with new built-ins and a sitting/desk area. The 2nd bath brings a playful dose of personality with a shower wrapped in glazed Mexican tile. The recently reimagined rear yard feels both refreshed and wonderfully established, preserving the charm cultivated here over decades. A covered patio spanning the entire length of the home creates a natural extension of the living space with expanses of pavers underfoot, overlooking mature shade trees, a brick-edged real lawn (currently being overseeded with winter lawn!) and a built-in fire pit area with plenty of room to gather. Bold, joyful colors punctuate the landscape, creating a memorable palette that is anything but ordinary. Fresh landscaping, new gates, custom posts, landscape lighting, mature pomegranates, new custom planter beds, a new sprinkler system and block fencing complete the setting. Screen doors grace every exterior door, inviting fresh air in and reinforcing the home's easy indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Altogether, it's the kind of backyard that feels like a warm hug. Flood irrigation is available to the property, but not currently being utilized. There is plenty of practicality behind all that personality, too. A 9' x 15' detached workshop/shed makes room for hobbies, gardening, projects or storage, while an RV gate with alley access adds welcome flexibility. And while the home proudly celebrates its vintage character, some of the most important things are updated: new roof in '23, new front AC in '23, new compressor in rear AC unit in '26, new water heater in '20, 7 kw solar array and a new electrical panel. A long driveway leads to a 1 car carport, offering plenty of off-street parking. And then there is the location! The Shops at Town & Country is less than 1 mile away offering Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Barnes & Noble, Pizzeria Bianco, Tratto, Snooze, Nekter Juice Bar, Biltmore Hot Yoga, LA Fitness and more. Biltmore Fashion Park, Piestewa Peak and Arcadia's popular dining scene are all close at hand. Even though the home sits just outside the Madison School District boundaries, Madison Camelview Elementary is less than a mile away and Madison Park Middle School is approximately two miles away, with open enrollment opportunities, subject to availability. Enjoy easy access to the 51 freeway and close proximity to Downtown Phoenix and Scottsdale. For buyers who would choose character over cookie-cutter, this one is something special to consider. Distinctly Southwestern and unmistakably Phoenix, this home is rich with history, layered with personality and refreshingly original.
