About this home
Opportunities like this are increasingly difficult to find in Verrado, especially at this price point. This reimagined single-level home sits on an oversized lot backing to a natural desert wash with no home directly behind, offering exceptional privacy and unobstructed views toward the White Tank Mountains. Even more unique, the expansive backyard provides a blank slate with room to create the outdoor space you want--whether that's a pool, spa, outdoor kitchen, entertaining area, expanded turf, or a combination of them all. Beyond the setting, the home offers an impressive combination of quality construction and substantial recent investment. Built with 2x6 framing and spray foam insulation, major improvements include an updated roof and a new whole-house water treatment system. Inside, approximately $82,000 in remodeling has transformed the home with a refined and cohesive design. Luxury plank flooring flows throughout the main living areas, complemented by plush carpet in the bedrooms, fresh interior paint, and updated cabinetry throughout the kitchen and bathrooms for a polished, move-in-ready feel. The redesigned chef's kitchen anchors the open-concept living space with quartz countertops and backsplash, updated cabinetry, and integrated LED lighting. The bathrooms have also been refreshed with updated cabinetry and quartz finishes, while quartz continues into the laundry room. The expanded primary shower has been completely remodeled to create a spacious, spa-like experience. One of the home's most distinctive features is the custom library, complete with beautifully designed built-in cabinetry and storage--ideal as a library, executive home office, collection space, study, or quiet retreat. Outside, the setting truly separates this home from the competition. An extended covered patio overlooks natural turf and the expansive backyard, while the desert wash creates additional separation from neighboring homes and preserves views toward the White Tank Mountains. A mature fruit orchard featuring apricot, peach, fig, and citrus trees adds another unique element, while ample remaining space provides tremendous potential for a future pool and customized outdoor living. The location is equally compelling. Situated on a quiet street just one home from Verrado's extensive trail system, you'll have convenient access to the parks, paths, community amenities, dining, and small-town charm that define the Verrado lifestyle. Verrado Marketplace is now open just down the road, bringing a major new collection of shopping, dining, and entertainment to the area, with additional retailers and restaurants continuing to open. For buyers searching for single-level living without sacrificing lot size, privacy, mountain views, or the flexibility to create their ideal backyard, this property stands apart. With approximately $82,000 in remodeling, updated kitchen and bathroom cabinetry, major recent improvements, custom finishes, a mature fruit orchard, and an exceptional Verrado setting, this is a combination that would be difficult to replicate at this price point.
Verrado Heritage, located between Verrado Way and the White Tank Mountain Regional Park foothills, is a master-planned and desert-modern Buckeye neighborhood with a golf-course edge and mountain-view streetscapes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Main Street and Verrado Way, where patios, storefronts, and shaded sidewalks set a town-center rhythm. Architectural lines lean toward stucco-and-stone desert palettes, front-porch streets, and pocket parks stitched into the blocks. The Verrado Golf Club frames daily routines with fairway vistas and a clubhouse scene. Trails and open desert define the horizon, with neighborhood paths linking to longer routes toward the White Tanks. Nearby, The Vic Bar + Kitchen, Tempo Urban Bistro, and the Verrado Coffee Company act as local pillars for meetups and lingering afternoons.
