Landscape has been re-engineered to allow full flow to all corners of the lawn front to back yards (Tempe turns the valves on every other Monday) and the water is CHEAP! Dozens of new, flowering plants have been added. Attached Casita designed for work-at-home professionals, architect, engineer, In-Laws, kids, student(s), it's all up to you! Attached Casita was added around 2008 per City of Tempe permits and has it's own seperate HVAC system. Prior owner added vinyl framed dual-pane windows throughout the main house & Casita at the same time period along with a 200 amp electrical panel and new wiring per City permits. Two separate, large sheds (front of carport) offer excellent storage capacity with plenty of shelving. This home offers more parking spaces than most in the neighborhood with two covered and two uncovered spaces. Google Map reveals this home is in the center of all Tempe is known for! Example: ASU School of Business - approximately 700 yards or 8 minutes walking distance. Tempe High School - approximately 3/4 mile Grady Gamage Theater - approximately 3/4 mile Tempe St. Luke Hospital - less than 1 mile Future USA Basketball - less than 1 mile Downtown Mill Avenue entertainment district - a little over a mile Tempe Town Lake - about 2 miles ASU Sun Devil Basketball & football stadiums are 1.5 miles! Within that distance are ASU swim, ASU Baseball, Volleyball and other sporting arena's. Minutes from I-10, Loop 202 and the Superstition Fwy and Sky Harbor International airport. Yet this is a very quite neighborhood! Please take a close look at this home!
