This is THE amazing South Tempe home and neighborhood you've been waiting for! Not your typical ''tile and stucco'' neighborhood, rather something special with a real sense of community. Nestled in Buena Vista Ranchos; a neighborhood of 148 homes on oversized lots, you'll discover this perfectly appointed 5 bedrooms, 3 bath home overflowing with charm on a 3/4 acre lot. As you come up the front walk, you'll find low-water usage and meticulously manicured native desert landscaping leading to the oversized porch. Upon entering the home, you're greeted by open halls with built in craftsman-style bookcases and a large formal living/dining room. Continue on to the great room with high-vaulted ceilings, beams and a lovely MCM beehive fireplace. Move on to the spacious and bright sunroom with windows all around, a nice size breakfast nook and kitchen that has been completely remodeled including S/S appliances, granite counters and pull out drawers for easy storage. This home has what might be considered a NextGen space providing a separate bedroom + bath + laundry area. The owner's suite is light + bright with separate closets. The fully remodeled owners bath boasts a walk-in shower. Rounding out the interior are an additional 3 bedrooms and another bath. Exit out to the backyard oasis which includes a diving pool, covered patio, gas firepit, storage, and mature trees all on an irrigated lot. Bring your clients to see this lovely home, where the crossroads of convenience and community are a way of life. Perfectly located within a five-minute drive of four freeways, A+ rated Kyrene Schools, ASU, the airport, shopping, restaurants and more! Better yet, stay here in the community featuring a park with horse arena, riding trails, and a community park with a well-maintained pool, tennis courts, basketball courts and ramadas. Welcome home!
