Property Description

Outstanding Tempe value offering the perfect blend of location, functionality and long-term potential! Situated on a desirable north/south interior lot with NO HOA, this solid block construction home is ideal for first-time buyers, investors, ASU housing or anyone seeking an affordable single-family home in a prime Tempe location. Conveniently located just minutes from Arizona State University with quick access to the US-60, Loop 101 and I-10 for easy commuting throughout the Valley. Inside, the home features a spacious great room layout with abundant natural light, neutral finishes and move-in ready condition. The kitchen opens to the living space and offers ample cabinet storage, breakfast bar seating and a functional design ideal for everyday living or rental flexibility. The primary suite includes an updated walk-in shower, while the secondary bath features dual sinks and generous space for family or guests. Approximately 1,300 sq ft with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and an attached 2-car garage... a rare feature for many older Tempe homes.
