Conveniently located within minutes from campus, and shopping, dining, and entertainment, this spacious property combines modern comfort with exceptional income potential. The home welcomes you with ample on-site parking for 5 vehicles. Inside, you'll find a bright and open great room designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The spacious kitchen features updated cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar, seamlessly connecting the living and dining areas. While the open-concept layout creates an inviting communal space, the thoughtfully designed split floor plan provides privacy for each resident. All five generously sized bedrooms feature large closets, ceiling fans, and enough space for a queen bed, desk, and dresser. (Be sure to review the floor plan--you'll be impressed by the room sizes.) The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and private bathroom with a jetted soaking tub. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are tucked away down a private hallway and share an updated bathroom with a walk-in shower. Bedrooms 4 and 5 share a third full bathroom with a tub/shower combination. All bathrooms have been tastefully renovated and offer ample vanity storage. An oversized laundry closet is equipped with a newer GE commercial-grade washer and dryer for added convenience. Step outside to your private backyard retreat, designed for relaxation and low-maintenance living. The hardscaped yard features attractive concrete and paver surfaces complemented by artificial turf, creating a clean, functional outdoor space ideal for entertaining or unwinding. For University of Arizona families, the investment opportunity is compelling: house your student in one bedroom and rent the remaining four. Strong rental income may help offset mortgage payments, utilities, and a significant portion of housing expenses while building long-term equity. Whether you're seeking student housing, a high-demand rental property, or a strategic investment near campus, this move-in-ready home checks all the boxes. Opportunities like this are rare--schedule your showing today before it's gone.
