Truly a special home—and a rare location. Set in a coveted North Phoenix neighborhood one block from the Phoenix Mountain Preserve, this midcentury 4-bed/2-bath brick home sits on a corner lot where desert light & mountain silhouettes greet you from the front & backyard alike. Morning hikes & evening bike rides are part of everyday life here; step out the door & the Preserve's trails are right there, yet home still feels like a quiet retreat with mature landscape w/real grass. Inside, the floor plan lives easy: a split layout for privacy, a generously sized guest bedroom, and gathering spaces that flow toward the backyard—so the views are never far from sight. The house has that timeless midcentury charm and great bones people look for, lovingly cared for by the same owner for 38 years. You can feel it in the details and the way the spaces invite you to slow downcoffee at sunrise, a book by the window in the afternoon, dinner with the back doors open to the desert air. Enjoy peace of mind with the big items already done: roof (2019), HVAC (2022), dual-pane windows, sliding doors, and front door (2023), plus a Pebble finish and new tile (2020) for the private pool. The result is a home that's wonderfully livable today, with tons of remodel potential for the buyer who wants to personalize and unlock even more upside over time. Out back, the yard is its own oasisa private pool framed by peek-a-boo mountain views and desert sky. Out front, the curb appeal of classic brick never goes out of style. And beyond the property line, you're walking distance to a community pool and tennis, with everyday conveniences, dining, and freeway access close at handso you can enjoy nature's quiet without losing urban ease. Homes in this neighborhood rarely come available, and even fewer carry a history of such long-term stewardship. If you've been waiting for a place that offers Preserve-side living, midcentury character, and smart updates already in place, this is the one to see.
