Property Description
From the curb, clean architectural lines set the tone: sharp black-framed windows, a fresh designer paint scheme with updated trim and fascia, modern exterior lighting, and curated desert landscaping supported by an upgraded irrigation system. Inside, deliberate craftsmanship runs through every space. The open-concept living area flows across new tile flooring framed by crisp baseboards, fresh interior paint, and solid-core interior doors. At the center of the home, the fully renovated kitchen combines form and function with sleek cabinetry, premium hardware, modern appliances, a built-in drawer microwave, and a commercial-grade Kraus sink and fixture package. Both bathrooms have been transformed from top to bottom with contemporary vanities, designer tile surrounds, updated plumbing fixtures, new lighting, a dedicated soaking tub, and walk-in shower.
Significant value lies behind the walls. Critical infrastructure has been completely addressed, including an upgraded electrical panel, modern switches, fixtures, ceiling fans, full-home plumbing descaling, and a new energy-efficient tankless water heater. The garage delivers practical utility with fresh epoxy flooring, upgraded lighting, and an EV-ready 240V charging outlet.
Step out back into a private desert retreat built for entertaining. The fully remodeled swimming pool anchors the yard, bordered by maintenance-free artificial turf, mature refreshed greenery, and an extended tiled patio ready for outdoor dining under the Arizona sky.
Turnkey, fully modernized, and backed by major capital improvements, 2822 E Cortez Street is a complete, move-in-ready package in a prime Phoenix corridor.
