Rarely does a property offer this much space, versatility, and opportunity in such a desirable Tempe location. With 5 bedrooms and 2.5 baths in the main home PLUS a detached 2/1 casita, this property is ideal for multigenerational living, guests, a home office, rental income potential, or Airbnb opportunities. Spanning approximately 3,066 square feet on an oversized lot, the home is loaded with upgrades including plantation shutters, exterior security shutters on both the main home and casita, tile flooring throughout the main living areas, granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. The primary suite is conveniently located on the main level and features a large oversized shower with dual shower heads, while the remaining bedrooms are situated downstairs for added privacy. Two wood-burning fireplaces add warmth and character, including one in the main living area and another on the private primary suite balcony patio. Outdoor living is equally impressive with two balcony covered patios, an inviting fountain area, and professionally maintained zero-scape landscaping with front and back irrigation. The property also includes an RV gate and RV parking, a large storage shed, abundant storage throughout, garage cabinetry, and an epoxy-coated garage floor with an additional sink. The main house AC unit was installed in 2021 and the water heater in 2020. The attached casita offers its own separate entrance while still providing interior access to the main home. It includes granite tile countertops, a full bathroom, washer and dryer, and the flexibility to add a stove if desired. The casita AC unit was installed in 2018, and the water heater was replaced in 2017. Located near the canal for walking and jogging, and just minutes from shopping, dining, and freeway access, this property combines space, functionality, and a prime Tempe location with the added benefit of no HOA.
