Overview

Description

Location, convenience & classic Tempe charm! This well-cared-for 1,235 SF block bungalow offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths & decades of pride of ownership--the previous owner called it home since the 1990s. The backyard may be the real surprise: peaceful, private & unbelievably relaxing--it truly must be experienced to be appreciated! A rear RV gate off the alley leads to a covered carport that could easily double as a second covered patio. Plus a 1-car garage! Just minutes from ASU, Tempe Town Lake, Old Town Scottsdale, shopping, dining & major freeways. A wonderfully cared-for Tempe home in an incredibly convenient location!
