817 S Melody Ln

A one bedroom that lives like a small house.

Your own gate opens to your own walled front yard — planted, lit, and private, with the door to your home at the end of it instead of at the end of a hallway. This is a single-story garden community: no...
shared entry, no footsteps overhead, no walking past five other doors to reach yours. Every one of the fourteen homes has a gate and a yard of its own. It is the part of a house that most apartments quietly delete.

Fully renovated in 2026 and minutes from ASU. This 1-bedroom, 1-bath home (475 SF) pairs a brand-new kitchen and bath with the original Saltillo terracotta tile that runs through every room — warmth and character you will not find in a new build.

YOUR PRIVATE OUTDOOR SPACE: gated front yard behind new block walls with a custom metal gate, professionally landscaped in golden Arizona Blonde granite with agave and blooming bougainvillea, and patio lighting for desert evenings. Room for a grill and a chair or two. Covered porch off the front door, plus a dedicated covered carport space and a private storage closet.

THE KITCHEN IS ALL NEW: white shaker cabinets with brushed-gold pulls, quartz Calacatta countertops with an undermount stainless sink and gold spring-style faucet, and an arched ceramic tile backsplash. Full stainless steel appliance package included — gas range, over-range microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator.

THE BATH IS ALL NEW: soaking tub with full-height 12x24" designer tile surround, brushed-gold fixtures and sconce lighting, new vanity with cultured marble top and framed mirror, and a new exhaust fan.

ENSUITE WASHER & DRYER: your own full-size washer and dryer inside the unit. No shared laundry, ever — a rarity at this price near campus.

THROUGHOUT: new dual-pane windows with 2" faux-wood blinds, fresh designer paint, ceiling fans with lights in the living room and bedroom, new two-panel doors with matte black hardware, and new sliding closet doors. Single-story construction — no stairs to your door.

THE LOCATION: minutes to ASU campus, Mill Avenue District, Valley Metro light rail, Tempe Marketplace, and Tempe Town Lake.

TERMS: $1,395/month. $500 security deposit, $50 application fee, no move-in fees. Pet friendly — cats and dogs welcome.
