About This Home

As of July 2025

Indoor-outdoor living at its finest! This expanded Plan 4 Villa nestled in the exclusive gated Palmira community of Palm Desert offers ultimate privacy on a large corner lot. Designed for the relaxed Desert Lifestyle. From the private interior courtyard, there's a centerpiece Pebble Tec-style pool with waterfall, flanked by a covered entertainment area, and also a separate casita with its own bath--all framed by breathtaking Santa Rosa Mountain views. Once inside the home the extra high ceilings link the rooms with an open-concept style and easy transition from indoor to outdoor living. The kitchen boasts slab granite counters and a new Bosch dishwasher (2023). The expanded family room creates an airy, welcoming space. The 4th bedroom is an attached casita, while the 5th bedroom, currently used as a den/office, provides flexibility. Recent upgrades include a new HVAC system (Lennox 4 & 5 ton units, 6 years old, warranty remaining), Mitsubishi mini-split A/C in the primary bedroom, fresh interior paint (2025), new recessed lighting, repainted patios, a Wi-Fi-controlled garage door opener (2023), and an AquaLink pool system. Minutes from shopping, dining, golf, McCallum Theatre, and top-rated schools, this move-in ready oasis is an absolute must-see! Actual square footage of Family Room may be almost 300 SqFt larger than the 3401 SqFt shown as Seller had Builder build out the room by 5'; Buyer to verify square footage.
