Property description
Comfort and convenience come together in this move-in ready, single-level home in the established Tempe Royal Palms neighborhood. With no interior steps and no HOA, this classic ranch-style home offers an easy-living floor plan, meaningful updates and a central Tempe location that keeps everyday conveniences close at hand. Inside, the home feels fresh, bright and comfortably updated. The original floor plan was opened up to create a more spacious great-room feel, while the former sunken living room has been raised to provide a seamless, level transition throughout the home. Popcorn ceilings have also been removed, fresh interior paint gives the home a crisp backdrop, and updated flooring includes easy-care porcelain tile throughout the main living areas with wood-look laminate flooring in the bedrooms. The remodeled kitchen features white quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances and an open connection to the surrounding living spaces, making it equally comfortable for everyday life or gathering with friends and family. A charming bay-window area adds another inviting place for a breakfast nook, home office, gym or playroom so you can keep an eye on the kiddos while prepping dinner! Both bathrooms have been partially renovated with clean, modern finishes. The primary bath features dual vanities with quartz countertops and a beautiful walk-in marble shower with glass enclosure. Fresh exterior paint in classic white with contrasting mocha trim and garage door gives the home a sharp, updated presence from the street. Energy-saving sunscreens are a practical bonus for Arizona summers. Outside, the covered patio opens to a spacious backyard with plenty of room to create your own outdoor retreat or add a pool. An RV gate and two-car garage provide additional flexibility and storage. Originally built by Suggs, a familiar name in many established Valley neighborhoods, the home reflects the classic late-era ranch design of its time while offering the updates buyers appreciate today. The nearby city park is great for dog walks and room for the kids to run! Your new home is near shopping, dining, ASU, Loop 101 and US-60 making it easy to get anywhere in the valley. Updated, functional and centrally located in the heart of Tempe--this home brings together character, comfort and convenience in a way that makes everyday living easy.
