About This Home

As of February 2026

Nestled in the premier 55+ community of Sun City Palm Desert, this highly sought-after Montego model showcases one of the most desirable open-concept floor plans. Thoughtful updates, beautiful finishes, and a meticulously maintained yard make this home truly move-in ready. Newer exterior paint and lush desert landscaping create standout curb appeal as you arrive. A gated front courtyard with a tranquil fountain leads you into the foyer, where sightlines extend straight through to the pristine backyard. The flexible floor plan offers 2 bedrooms, a den/office/optional guest room, and 2 fully renovated bathrooms. Interior features include plantation shutters and stylish 24-inch tile flooring throughout the main living areas for a cohesive, upscale look. The upgraded kitchen features a cozy breakfast area, quartz countertops and backsplash, double sink, and custom ceiling-height soft-close cabinets with modern hardware. Under-cabinet lighting, pull-out shelves, recessed ceiling lights, pendant lighting over the sit-up bar, and stainless steel appliances--including a new Miele wall oven--enhance both function and style. The kitchen, dining, and living rooms all look out onto the expansive backyard, creating a bright, seamless indoor-outdoor feel.Outdoors you'll find an extended patio with Alumawood cover, artificial turf, a soothing waterfall feature, and multiple fruit trees for a private, resort-like retreat. The spacious primary suite offers direct access to the backyard plus an upgraded en-suite with quartz counters, double vanity, tiled walk-in shower, and a walk-in closet with custom organizers. On the opposite side of the home, a welcoming guest bedroom and the den/third guest room share a remodeled bath, providing excellent separation and privacy. The laundry room includes upper cabinets, a sink, and washer/dryer, while the 2-car garage features cabinetry, a mini-split air conditioner, and water filtration system.
