About This Home

As of June 2018

Highly desirable location, views, and floor plan - this remodeled, upstairs two bedroom/two bath condo includes the kitchen nook and is ideally situated on the Vista Royale loop in Desert Falls Country Club. The back patio faces northwest, which affords views of the magnificent San Jacinto mountain across multiple golf course fairways, while avoiding the heat of a direct western orientation. The northern hills can also be enjoyed from the back patio, as well as the nearby pool. One of only two pools which are adjacent to the golf course. Inside, this lovely condo has been remodeled to include baseboards and designer style tile throughout the living areas as well as carpeting in the bedrooms. The wet bar has been remodeled and includes a wine fridge. The kitchen has been extensively remodeled with newer cabinetry, increased storage, slab granite, tile flooring, and appliances. Desert Falls is located mid-valley; with dining, retail, and groceries within walking distance.
