About This Home

As of September 2016

I live and have worked in Desert Falls for years and have never seen one listed with this level of upgrades and completeness of remodel. EVERYTHING has been exceptionally remodeled with sophistication and taste. The photos just give you a glimpse - seeing is believing. Custom remodeled kitchen...custom cabinetry including self-closing drawers, dual ovens, high-end stainless appliances, and high-grade granite countertops. Travertine flooring throughout. Granite finished fireplace. Shutters. New lighting. This floorplan includes a junior master suite, as well as a large main master. All bathrooms have been completely remodeled. Baseboards throughout. New, solid interior doors, including glass doors for den entry. Quiet, interior location. Close to the pool, but far enough away for privacy. Front balcony is south facing for those warm, winter days. Home ownership includes tennis and fitness. Desert Falls is a top 10 rated semi-private golf course community.
