Welcome home to the cool pines of Lakeside, Arizona! This move-in-ready 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 980 sq ft home sits on a generous .36-acre lot shaded by towering Ponderosa pines, just minutes from Rainbow Lake. Inside you'll find fresh interior and exterior paint, updated flooring, kitchen cabinets and bathrooms, plus a brand-new woodstove to keep things cozy on snowy mountain nights. The big-ticket items are done too: a new furnace, new electrical panel, new refrigerator, fresh releveling, and a resealed roof. Outside, a landscaped front yard welcomes you, while the fully fenced backyard with gate offers room to roam, a chicken coop, and an orchard of cherry, apple, apricot, peach and pear trees. Built in 1988, this home has been cared for from top to bottom. About five years ago it received updated flooring, new kitchen cabinets, remodeled bathrooms and a new roof. More recently, it was freshly painted inside and out, releveled, and the roof was resealed. A new furnace and new electrical panel bring peace of mind, and the new woodstove adds warmth and character to the living space. A new refrigerator is included in the kitchen. The 980 square foot floor plan is efficient and easy to heat, so it stays comfortable through the mountain winters. The add-on mud room is a true mountain-living essential, giving you a place to kick off snowy boots, hang up jackets, and store firewood or gardening gear before stepping inside. The property is connected to water, power and sewer, so there's no septic system to maintain. Step outside and the property really shines. The landscaped front yard creates great curb appeal beneath the tall Ponderosas. Out back, the fully fenced yard with gate gives pets room to play and keeps your flock secure in the chicken coop. The mature fruit trees offer a backyard harvest of cherries, apple, apricots, peaches and pears, perfect for fresh pies, preserves, or eating straight off the branch. Whether you're dreaming of a small homestead, a garden retreat, or simply a peaceful place to enjoy the mountain air, this lot has the space to make it happen. Lakeside is part of the Town of Pinetop-Lakeside, nestled in Arizona's White Mountains at roughly 6,800 feet. Here you'll enjoy four true seasons: cool, green summers that offer a welcome escape from the desert heat, colorful falls, snowy winters and crisp spring mornings. Rainbow Lake is just minutes away for fishing, kayaking, canoeing and quiet sunset strolls along the shore. Nearby Woodland Lake Park offers walking paths and picnic spots, and the surrounding Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests and White Mountain Trail System provide miles of hiking, biking and horseback riding right outside your door. In winter, Sunrise Park Resort is a scenic drive away for skiing and snowboarding. Local restaurants, shops and community events give Lakeside its friendly small-town charm, while neighboring Show Low adds more shopping, dining and services just a short drive away. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a summer getaway, or a four-season mountain retreat, this home delivers the best of White Mountain living. Schedule your showing today!
