Begging for a bit of truly (not just the color) green landscaping and a bit of kitchen and bath remodeling, we’re otherwise digging the curb appeal and bones of 1307 29th Avenue which has been listed at $679,000 for 2,179 square feet ($312 per). As you can see, a little bit of landscaping has made all the difference. This landscaping is easily maintainable. and makes the house stand out compared to the surrounding homes. Sonoran Landesign landscape designers in Phoenix can do anything from lush oasis to sonoran desert designs. Landscaping drastically changes the appearance of an area, it may be worth considering if you’re looking to sell your home.
UPDATE: And for the sake of comparison, two houses to the south:
? Listing: 1307 29th Avenue (2/1 + 1/1.5) 2,179 sqft – $679,000 [MLS]
? Two Different Perspectives, One Marina Block And An Oasis Of Green [SocketSite]

For all those that bash Realtors for photoshoping the sky and other tricks; how about for once we applaud the agent here for truth in advertizing. Although, I might have gone with the much improved and totally not photoshopped MapJack shot:

And San Franciscans say Los Angeles has tacky architecture. This facade is hysterical. Has anyone ever done a book of the bizarre residential architecture of the western part of the city?
its probably a “Rousseau” home. they were the classy row houses out there compared to the austere Doelger houses
stucco rulez!
I wouldn’t use the word “tacky” to describe this house. “Tacky”, it seems to me, would apply if they hadn’t pulled off the style. They nailed it.
Now, it might be ridiculous to try to make your fairly modest suburban (it was the burbs at the time) home look like the gatehouse to a fabulous mansion lurking just over the next hill, but that criticism warrants a different term.
On the “green” aspect, I also wouldn’t clamor for more, more, more just for the sake of more, more, more. There’s a style to the restrained, manicured, in a way miniaturized “yards” of the Avenues. Sure, this place could use something more, but the one down the block overdoes it. Look at it from the MapJack view.
Of course, more, more, more is preferable to the much more common none, none, none.
Green? Hey, you can park three cars out there! Who would trade that for green?
The sale of 1307 29th Avenue closed escrow on Friday with a reported contract price of $725,000 ($333 per square foot).
