About This Home

As of April 2025

Welcome to 3243 E Forge Ave, a beautifully remodeled 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home boasting 1,654 sq. ft. of modern living space. Situated on a spacious corner lot just shy of a quarter acre, this home is truly a showstopper!

Step inside and be greeted by an open-concept floor plan filled with natural light and stylish finishes. Fresh paint, new wood-like flooring, and updated fixtures make this home feel brand new. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring stainless steel appliances, sleek stylestone countertops, tile flooring, and a stunning backsplash. Whether you're sipping coffee in the flex space nook, working from home, or entertaining guests at the kitchen island breakfast bar, this space is designed for function and style. And let's talk about that view, doing the dishes won't feel like such a chore when you're gazing out at the gorgeous sparkling blue pool through the oversized kitchen sink window, which also conveniently opens to the outdoor wet bar.

Now adjacent to the kitchen is the dining area with a charming brick fireplace which creates a cozy ambiance perfect for those perfect family night dinners.

As you begin to walk past the family room, down the hallway you will be greeted with adorable wainscoting throughout. This home wastes no space, offering multiple linen closets and an indoor laundry room making organization effortless in this home.

No need for updating- BOTH bathrooms have been freshly remodeled, with new vanities, toilets, mirrors, and fresh paint.

This home has one standard sized bedroom with large windows and a large closet space. The second oversized bedroom (which is currently being utilized as a loft/den/ flex space) features a walk-in closet, ensuring ample storage space . Finally, the spacious primary suite offers a walk-in closet and sliding glass doors leading directly to the backyard patio, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or a peaceful evening retreat.

Now, let's talk about that backyard oasis, it's HUGE! This corner lot provides two gates, including an RV gate. You'll love the basketball court/additional parking space, a large storage shed, turf play area, raised garden bed, and the massive covered patio, perfect for entertaining. And of course, the crown jewel of this backyard is the gorgeous diving pool, ideal for cooling off during Arizona summers. (Don't fret parents this pool is not fenced however a poolnet with Katchakid will be included. Katchakid is the #1 poolnet in America and the only company with an over 50-year no reported drowning record, this poolnet is valued at $2,700)

This home is priced to sell, and if you think the photos look amazing, just wait until you see it in person! This property is NO Mona Lisa - tour this property and see for yourself! Don't miss your chance to own this stunning home.
