Light-filled, thoughtfully updated, and full of charm — this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home in a prime location checks all the boxes! This 1,459 square foot single-level property offers a spacious and functional split floor plan with desirable north/south exposure. Vaulted ceilings and multiple skylights fill the home with natural light, creating an open and airy atmosphere. Recessed lighting enhances the kitchen and other areas of the home, while the primary suite features a stylish board and batten accent wall, a private exit to the backyard, and an updated en-suite bathroom. The home is fitted with shutters and newer dual-pane windows throughout. Flooring was updated just four years ago, and built-in bookshelves add both character and function. The garage includes built-in cabinetry for convenient storage. You enter the home through a custom iron gate that leads to a flagstone walkway part of the extended side yard and backyard space. The backyard is spacious and thoughtfully designed with pavers creating a cozy outdoor dining area, perfect for enjoying Arizona's beautiful starry nights. Conveniently located just miles from Desert Ridge Marketplace, the Musical Instrument Museum, and Scottsdale Mayo Clinic Hospital, this home offers both comfort and access to premier shopping, entertainment, and healthcare. Desert Ridge Marketplace features a variety of popular retailers and dining options, including Nordstrom Rack, Target, Barnes & Noble, The Keg Steakhouse + Bar, Yard House, and Flower Child.
