About This Home
As of March 2025This stunning Tempe Gardens home has undergone a full transformation, designed with modern living and entertaining in mind. Every inch of this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home has been meticulously renovated, featuring high-end finishes and a thoughtfully reimagined layout that flows seamlessly throughout its 1,988 square feet.
The heart of the home is the chef's kitchen, where a massive island showcases Nano shaker sage green cabinetry with soft-close hinges, thick quartz countertops, an ultra-modern backsplash with extra shelving, and premium hardware and lighting. Samsung Bespoke appliances elevate the space, combining luxury with top-tier performance. Walls were opened up to create a functional, inviting area that connects effortlessly to the living and dining spaces. An impressive electric fireplace wrapped in stylish tile adds warmth and character.
Luxury flooring runs throughout, complemented by 5.5-inch baseboards, new door casings, and window trim. Each bathroom has been fully remodeled with custom flooring, new vanities, designer tile, and modern fixtures. The split floor plan includes a spacious primary suite with a massive walk-in shower, dual vanity, and elegant finishes.
A newly redesigned laundry and mudroom offers ample storage, while a brand-new slider leads to the backyardcomplete with a large covered patio, fresh turf for play, RV gate parking, and plenty of space for a future pool. The front yard has been enhanced with new pavers, fresh rock, and desert plants, adding to the home's curb appeal. Ideally located near the US-60 and 101, with easy access to ASU and all that Tempe has to offer, this home is truly one of a kind.
