1142 W VERMONT Avenue Mid-century modern home in the Pasadena neighborhood of Central Phoenix, originally built in 1956 and thoughtfully remodeled with permitted updates. The architecture stays true to its roots with clean lines, exposed block construction, and an open-concept layout, while extensive upgrades throughout provide long-term value and functionality. The kitchen anchors the main living space and is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring walnut cabinetry with full-extension drawers, quartz countertops, a GE Profile induction cooktop, and a KitchenAid convection oven and microwave installed in 2024. Custom, hand-finished doors and cohesive cabinetry details carry throughout the home. Major system improvements include a new roof in 2023, Anderson windows installed within the last years, updated interior plumbing and sewer lines, and a full sewer line replacement to the alley in 2022. The home was fully rewired to current code with an updated electrical panel and includes a whole-house surge protector. The HVAC system is approximately eight years old, professionally serviced twice per year, and still carries remaining warranty coverage. The primary bedroom and living room feature remote-controlled shades, with the living room set up for Alexa integration. Additional upgrades include new exterior doors, updated lighting, new outdoor outlets, and drip and irrigation systems on timers. The backyard has been fully transformed with professional landscaping, a private pool with gas heater, a covered patio, and a 12x10 shed for additional storage. The front yard has also been refreshed to enhance curb appeal. Located near the Melrose District with convenient access to the light rail, shopping, dining, and everyday amenities including Uptown Plaza, The Henry, AJ's Fine Foods, and the Phoenix Public Library, this home offers a balance of architectural character and modern updates in a well-established Central Phoenix location.
