This is an unbelievable opportunity to own this charming vintage home in the heart of Tempe across the street from ASU! This 3 Bedroom 2.5 bath home has vintage 1940's vibes in the energetic Maple-Ash neighborhood with views of Birchett Park & Gammage Auditorium directly across the street. So many updates have been made to the home without losing its charm, including a brand new full bath added, new dual pane windows, newer HVAC, professionally injected insulation into the 8'' block walls, and Sunshield heat blocking exterior paint. Other highlights include open shelving in kitchen, original mortise lock hardware on interior wood doors, and a lovely patio furniture set on the back patio The backyard of ''Butler House'' has a shaded patio, grass area, a Hong Kong orchid tree, and trees that border the yard. Tempe Streetcar access a block and a half walk to the 11th Street/ Mill Streetcar stop. There is a one car garage and driveway parking in the front and two car wide parking in the driveway. A parking pass could also be obtained from the City of Tempe for nearby street parking. A bike path in the front of the home leads to all the amenities the area has to offer, including the new Whole Foods, Pita Jungle, Chipotle, PF Changs, Starbucks, etc. Because of buyer interest, the wall plaster, kitchen floor tile, and the Vermiculite insulation in the attic were sampled and tested in a laboratory. Great news, they tested negative for asbestos! **The rear Lot 1 consisting of 3,667 square feet is also available as a separate parcel and incredible investment opportunity!**
