Have lived in Phoenix for 20 years, but originally from Indiana. Enjoy spending time outdoors hiking and biking with my husband and two little girls!

I love the diverse character of the architecture in this historic neighborhood - each home is so unique!

We're pet friendly, so the HUGE fully fenced backyard is very popular with our furry guests! Ideally located near downtown arts districts, great local restaurants, and the highway to get around town quickly.
