Property Description
Great opportunity for a home on a large lot in a wonderful Scottsdale location! Loved by the original owners since 1973, this home has witnessed decades of fabulous family memories. Summer days & nights playing in the large dive pool. Walks to the park across 56th Street. The short bike ride to Desert Shadows Elementary & Middle Schools. A quick drive to the PV Mall - brand new back in the day, but ironically also being rebuilt just as this neighborhood is experiencing redevelopment.

Currently a 3 bedroom, 2 bath home with formal living & dining rooms plus a family room featuring a cozy brick fireplace. Side entry ...

garage plus an RV gate so you can park a trailer, your camper, etc in the backyard since this wonderful neighborhood has NO HOA. The pool is positioned in a great spot if your plan would be to expand the home's size with an addition since it is off to one side & not centered & up against the current home. There is a charming gazebo with seating & a fireplace ... perfect to enjoy time with family & friends while entertaining outside. You will love the south facing backyard - the most desirable for sun on the patio in our cool winter months, but shade under the covered patio in the summer. This subdivision is one of a few lucky ones with gas service in the area! The home currently has a gas water heater & is stubbed for gas behind the range & for the dryer. It also has a gas starter for the wood burning fireplace (so could be converted to a gas fireplace) & a gas line to the BBQ in the backyard. The Carrier 15 SEER A/C is only about 2 years old & all of the pool equipment was replaced just 3 months ago! Both of those can be valuable even if a full remodel or rebuild is your plan. Perfectly located just over a mile to the redeveloped PV Mall with all of the great new restaurants, entertainment, shopping, etc. including Trevor's, Blanco, Federal Pizza, Flower Child, Frost, plus established favorites like In-N-Out, The Mexicano, Chick-fil-A, Canes, & more plus grocery options from Sprouts & Whole Foods to Walmart & Costco! A spectacular Lifetime Fitness is coming soon plus EOS, hot yoga, spin, & multiple other fitness options are already nearby. Literally everything you need is a stone's throw away! Less than 4 miles to Kierland Commons & Scottsdale Quarter as well as the Scottsdale Airpark. In boundary to some of the best schools in the highly desirable Paradise Valley School District. Tour today & you will want to call this house (or the lot) home!
