*New* Sun Room, Pool, Fire Pit, X-Pong, Games, ASU

South Tempe, single-family streets, the kind of neighborhood where kids ride bikes to the park. You're in the middle of the Valley: ASU and Mill Avenue for game days and graduation, Sky Harbor for easy arrivals, and Papago Park and the Salt River trails when the group wants to get outside. Spring training is the bonus. Tempe Diablo Stadium (Angels) is a short drive, with the Cubs, Giants, and A's parks all within reach. Grocery stores and coffee are minutes away, so nobody has to leave the pool for long.

This is a driving neighborhood. Plan on cars. Parking for six: two in the garage, two in the driveway, two on the street in front of the house. Sky Harbor is an easy rideshare, and the freeways put Scottsdale, Mesa, and downtown Phoenix within reach for spring training and day trips. Valley Metro buses run nearby and the light rail picks up in downtown Tempe by ASU, but for a group this size, rideshare or your own cars will be the practical choice. Not walkable to Mill Avenue.
