Tired of seeing Scottsdale homes that all seem to follow the same formula? Welcome to 8531 E Monterey Avenue, a completely reimagined home that feels anything but cookie cutter. Packed with character, thoughtful custom design choices, and high end finishes, this four bedroom, two bath home manages to feel both elevated and incredibly warm and welcoming. The home was renovated down to the studs, with more than $400,000 invested in the renovation. Major systems were replaced, including HVAC, electrical, and plumbing, while the interior was rebuilt with custom cabinetry, beautiful countertops, an oversized kitchen island, high end stainless steel appliances, a gas range, pot filler, curated wallpaper and finishes, and a wood burning fireplace that anchors the main living space. The transformation continues outside, where more than $150,000 was invested in completely reworking the landscaping, backyard, and pool area. The backyard was designed for Arizona living with a sparkling pool and oversized Baja step, covered patio, ramada, fire pit, turf, and refreshed landscaping. The pool equipment has also been upgraded with a new heater, pump, and filter.
With no HOA and a location just minutes from Old Town Scottsdale, Fashion Square, ASU, Tempe Marketplace, Sky Harbor Airport, and major freeways, this home offers the character of a custom renovation without sacrificing convenience. Whether used as a primary residence, second home, or potential vacation rental, 8531 E Monterey is truly ready to enjoy from day one.
