About this home
Charm, Modern Living, and South Scottsdale Luxury. Welcome to 81st Place.
This beautifully updated South Scottsdale home blends authentic character with modern comfort, creating a warm and refined living experience in one of the area's most desirable neighborhoods. Featuring 2,204 square feet, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a backyard built for year-round living, the property delivers the perfect mix of style, function, and location.
Unique details set this home apart. Rustic wood windows sourced from an early 1900s Arizona farmhouse bring charm and history into the design, while handcrafted cherry-wood office doors add an artistic touch. A vaulted living room enhances the open feel of the home, and a full wall of accordion doors opens to the backyard, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living.
Recent updates throughout the property offer complete peace of mind. Improvements include a full new roof, new HVAC and furnace, new water heater, new copper wiring, and a freshly lined sewer pipe. Additional upgrades include blown-in insulation, new lighting, and high-end appliances, such as a Miele washer and dryer.
The backyard is a private retreat with a PebbleTec pool completed in 2023, updated valves and equipment, cool decking, and fresh landscaping featuring mature cacti and thoughtful plant selections. Shade sails, new outdoor lighting, and synthetic grass complete the space, making it ideal for relaxing with family or entertaining guests.
Located in the heart of Scottsdale, this home offers quick access to Old Town, the greenbelt, parks, restaurants, and everything that this area is known and loved for. With charm, craftsmanship, and modern upgrades at every turn, 81st Place is a rare opportunity in a highly sought-after neighborhood.
