Welcome to this North Central Phoenix rental with character, space & a setting that's increasingly hard to find. Built in 1973 and tucked away on a cul-de-sac lot, this 1,869-square-foot home pairs wonderful 1970s charm with comfortable, easy living. Two generously sized bedrooms, two baths & a two-car garage offer a surprisingly spacious floor plan, while the kitchen features updated appliances for today's lifestyle. Step outside & this property really shines. With 3 covered patios, this huge, private-feeling backyard offers, beautiful mountain views & plenty of room to entertain, garden, play, relax with pets or simply enjoy the breathing room that comes with an oversized lot. Morning coffee, dinner with friends or an evening under the Arizona sky, this backyard is meant to be enjoyed. The location is pure Central Phoenix. The Pointe at Tapatio is just minutes away. Great restaurants and neighborhood favorites are waiting just down the hill. If you've been looking for something with personality rather than predictable, this one deserves a look. It's a little bit vintage, a lot charming, and wonderfully Phoenix.
North Mountain, located between I-17 and SR-51, is a residential and outdoorsy Phoenix neighborhood with rugged desert trails and mid-century streetscapes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around 7th Street and Thunderbird Road, where local taquerias, coffee counters, and low-key storefronts set a practical, day-to-day rhythm. Trailheads at North Mountain Park and Shaw Butte anchor the landscape, with steep hikes and wide valley views shaping weekends. Ranch homes and block-built houses sit on generous lots, often framed by palms, gravel gardens, and mountain backdrops. The Lookout Mountain Preserve adds quieter paths and sunset overlooks, while nearby cultural stops like the Musical Instrument Museum and The Heard Museum broaden the off-trail itinerary.
