Step inside this beautifully appointed mid-century modern home in North Central Phoenix! Originally built by Ralph Haver & later revitalized by Troy Bankord, this home was featured in both Desert Living & Phoenix Home & Garden magazines! A beautiful example of Haver architecture in the Starlite Vista cul-de-sac, this lovely home perfectly blends original charm, from the exposed block accent walls to the freestanding Malm fireplace, with modern luxuries, like EV charging, a new HVAC system, & vaulted ceilings throughout the living areas & bedrooms! Like any authentic mid-century home, the carefully curated design continues to the outdoors. Just off the covered back porch is a goldfish fountain, creating a unique transition between the perfectly situated play pool & the lush green yard. Normally that's where the amenities would end, but this house offers so much more. A detached, air conditioned office/flex room overlooks the backyard and offers so much flexibility. Then there's the attached CASITA with separate entrance. It's perfect for guests or, with the addition of a small kitchenette, would make an excellent rental in a highly desirable area of town! The opportunities are truly endless! As "Desert Living" was first to highlight, "The Glenn House possesses the rare distinction of being the product of not one but two master designers." You could be the next to put your stamp on this iconic property.
