Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1994, this 30-year-old home appears well-maintained but features largely original or dated components. The kitchen retains 1990s-style oak cabinetry, laminate countertops, and older black appliances. While the property is functional and move-in ready, it lacks recent major renovations to its primary systems and aesthetic finishes, placing it squarely in the 'fair' category based on age and lack of significant updates.
The property includes access to a community pool, providing a vital recreational feature for the Phoenix climate while keeping individual maintenance costs low.
The inclusion of a 2-car garage is a significant asset for a 1,108 sq. ft. home, offering secure vehicle storage and additional space for belongings.
As a detached single-family residence rather than a townhome, this property offers superior privacy and independence for buyers at an accessible price point.
With only two bedrooms and just over 1,100 square feet, the home's footprint may be too restrictive for larger families or those requiring a dedicated home office.
The assigned middle and high schools have lower performance ratings (3/10), which could be a drawback for families and potentially impact long-term resale value.
