8608 E Palo Verde Dr., Scottsdale, AZ 85250

Looking much like a single-level home, this stunningly remodeled tri-level jewel boasts four big bedrooms and three roomy baths in 2,200 square-feet. Quiet and unassuming, the front of the home is dressed with low-maintenance landscaping designed to keep your weekends free from hours of yard-work. Inside, the home's wow-factor is first revealed in the light and airy living room that features a large picture window and handsome wide-planked floors. Steps away, the contemporary kitchen is flattered by stunning counters in a hue-rich blend of silver/gray and jet-black set against snow-white cabinetry, stainless steel appointments and a beautiful brick accent wall. The upper-level is where you'll find one of the home's two en-suite bedrooms, while a stroll down a half-flight of stairs leads to an expansive flex room (ideal for a game room, media center or billiards parlor) and a second en-suite bedroom, making this area perfect for guests, in-laws, the nanny or perhaps a boomerang college-grad. At the end of the day, check out the backyard's cool-blue pool, inviting lounge/sun-decks, Fido-friendly grassy lawn and mature flowering shrubbery that creates a wall of privacy.
