A RARE FEATURE FOR HOMES OF THIS AGE, THERE IS A SOLID-STATE NUTONE WHOLE HOUSE INTERCOM WITH MASTER STATION IN THE KITCHEN AND REMOTE STATIONS WITH SPEAKERS IN: THE GAME ROOM, ALL BEDROOMS, CARPORT AND WORKSHOP/OFFICE.

SOME YEARS AGO (CA 1971) THE HOME WAS EXPANDED FROM THE 3RD BEDROOM WESTWARD TO CREATE A HUGE GAME/BONUS ROOM EASILY ALLOWING A FULL SIZE POOL TABLE & FEATURING A SPECTACULAR SPARKLING STONE-FACED WOOD-BURNING FIREPLACE COMPOSED OF A VARIETY OF STONES HAND CHOSEN BY THE OWNER FROM THEIR PERSONAL COLLECTION. THE FIREPLACE HAS A CERAMIC TILE HEARTH AND SEATING + TWO SIDELIGHT WINDOWS WITH TINTED GREEN PANELS (POWERED BY SUNLIGHT!) WHICH FLANK & HIGHLIGHT THE FIREPLACE. THERE IS A BUILT-IN ELECTRIC AIR CIRCULATING FIREPLACE FAN AND A WOOD STORAGE BIN WITH HINGED WOODEN COVER SPANNING THE OUTSIDE (FOR LOADING WOOD) AND INSIDE (FOR WITHDRAWAL OF WOOD). THIS ROOM HAS AN IMMENSE CREDENZA ON THE NORTH WALL WITH SHELVES AND ROLL-OUT DRAWERS, A SEPARATE EXTERIOR EXIT TO THE PATIO AREA, 2 STORAGE CLOSETS WITH 2 DEEP SHELVES & CLOTHES RODS AND EVEN A BUILT-IN POOL CUE STICK RACK ON THE SOUTH SIDE WALL.
THE LOUVERED BI-FOLD DOORS ACROSS THE WIDTH OF THE ROOM ALLOW THE 3RD BEDROOM WITH WINDOW AND CLOSET EXTRA PRIVACY OR THE DOORS MAY BE RETRACTED TO GIVE THE 3RD BEDROOM OCCUPANT VIRTUALLY THEIR OWN EXCLUSIVE GAME/PLAY ROOM. THE GAME ROOM ALSO HAS A RETRACTABLE PROJECTION SCREEN FOR HOME MOVIES, SLIDES OR FOR COMPUTER PROJECTION.

NOTE THE SEPARATE DETACHED WORKSHOP OR OFFICE (APPROX 248 SF) AT THE BACK OF THE CARPORT WHICH HAS GAS HEAT, WALL AC UNITS, ELECTRIC SERVICE, BENCHES AND STORAGE SHELVES. PART OF THE WORKSHOP WAS FORMERLY USED AS A HAM RADIO BASE STATION. THIS COULD EASILY BE ADAPTED FOR USE AS A PRIVATE PROFESSIONAL OFFICE FOR: ARCHITECT, CONSULTANT, DESIGNER, PSYCHIATRIST, PRIVATE MUSIC INSTRUCTION OR MUSICIAN'S REHEARSAL ROOM. THE KIDS WILL LOVE THE FREE-STANDING PLAYHOUSE AT THE BACK OF THE LOT, BUT YOU MAY ALSO USE IT FOR EXTRA STORAGE, AS IF THERE ISN'T ENOUGH ALREADY!
THE FRONT DRIVEWAY WIDENS AFTER CROSSING THE SIDEWALK AND CAN PROBABLY ACCOMMODATE UP TO SIX CARS (2 COVERED + 6 SLAB PARKING). THERE IS ALSO A RV GATE IN THE BACK YARD WITH ACCESS FROM THE ALLEY, WHICH IS LOCKED VIA GATES AT EACH END (SEMI-PRIVATE ACCESS). RESIDENTS ARE PROVIDED GATE KEYS BY THE CITY. THERE IS A TOTAL RV HOOKUP AT THE SOUTHWEST END OF THE BACK YARD, WHICH PROVIDES WATER, WASTE AND 220 VAC ELECTRIC.
THIS HUGE LOT (ACTUALLY 1.5 LOTS) RECEIVES PERIODIC FLOOD IRRIGATION FROM THE CITY OF MESA VIA PIPES IN THE ALLEY BEHIND THE HOME.
