Property is move-in ready.
The property is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready. While originally built in 1986, the home has undergone significant updates including a kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, a 16kW owned solar system, and updated flooring in portions of the home. Although some features like the bathroom tile countertops reflect an older design style, the lack of deferred maintenance and the high quality of the major systems and outdoor amenities justify a 'good' rating.
The rare 5-bedroom plus office layout includes a separate entrance for the office and direct bathroom access for every bedroom, offering exceptional privacy for guests or home businesses.
Equipped with a 16kW owned solar system for significant utility savings, the property also features a premium backyard with a pool, spa, and outdoor kitchen perfect for the Arizona climate.
The absence of monthly HOA fees provides financial freedom, while the 3-car garage and massive 8-car driveway offer rare parking capacity for car enthusiasts or large households.
CCRs restrict rentals to a minimum of 30 days, which eliminates the property as an option for investors seeking lucrative short-term or vacation rental opportunities.
Built in 1986, the home may require further modernization of its architectural style or core systems to compete with newer luxury builds in the Scottsdale market.
