3001 N 17TH Drive

MAJOR PRICE REDUCTION. This is your chance to own a trophy home in the coveted Encanto North Historic District for under half a million. A 1947 red brick residence on an oversized corner lot, meticulously updated with capital improvements that eliminate the uncertainty of historic homeownership. New HVAC system. Tankless water heater. Dual pane windows throughout. Smart home technology. Custom closet build-outs. A dedicated laundry room with built-in cabinetry. Outside, a rare detached garage with upgraded storage, RV gate access, and fresh landscaping with lush real grass front and back. This is not a project. This is a move-in-ready piece of Phoenix history, reimagined for modern living. Situated on nearly 7,000 square feet in one of Midtown Phoenix's most sought-after historic enclaves, this single-level ranch blends timeless curb appeal with the infrastructure of a thoroughly modern home. The red brick exterior, original to 1947, sets a tone of permanence and character rarely found at this price point. Step inside to discover a thoughtfully upgraded interior with granite counters, a mix of wood, tile, and laminate flooring, and an open layout with no interior steps. Every system that matters has been addressed: energy-efficient dual pane vinyl-frame windows, a programmable thermostat, and ceiling fans complement the new central air. The kitchen is equipped with an electric cooktop, dishwasher, disposal, and refrigerator, while a gas stub allows for future range customization. The dedicated laundry room, inside the home with full cabinetry, is a feature that elevates daily living well beyond what most homes in this category offer. Custom closet systems in the bedrooms reflect the same attention to detail found throughout. Outside, the property delivers on every front. A block-fenced private yard with automatic irrigation timers, sprinklers front and back, and genuine grass, not rock, not artificial turf, creates an outdoor retreat in the heart of the city. The detached garage with built-in cabinets and a garage door opener provides both parking and serious storage, while side vehicle entry and RV gate access add flexibility that is nearly impossible to find at this price. The location speaks for itself. Walk to Encanto Park. Walk to the light rail. Minutes to Roosevelt Row, the arts district, and everything the Midtown Phoenix lifestyle offers. No HOA. City lights views. A corner lot on a quiet, tree-lined street in a nationally recognized historic district. Originally listed at $539,000, now available at $499,000. The seller has priced this to move.
