About This Home
As of November 2024Located in 55+ Sun City Palm Desert, the Morocco model with a casita is one of the most desirable floor plans in the community. It has plantation shutters throughout, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a detached 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom CASITA, and it sits on a large corner lot. The kitchen has beautiful granite slab counters, a double oven, a gas cooktop, and upgraded original cabinets with bronze hardware. The ''wall'' is removed, so it's open to the dining and living rooms. with a great view of the extended east-facing backyard perfect for afternoon BBQs. The primary bedroom has a bay window viewing the backyard and a dual vanity bathroom with a custom walk-in closet, a walk-in shower, and a private toilet room. The guest bedroom is inviting and is adjacent to the 2nd full bathroom. The office/den is off the living room and has a built-in desk and bookshelves. The detached casita has a mini kitchen, a walk-in shower and is perfect for guests, caregivers, or a separate office space. It can also be rented for some good income. The lush landscaping is low maintenance and has newer irrigation. The yard has multiple sitting areas, and a BBQ. It's perfect for entertaining or just relaxing and enjoying the stars. The 2-car garage is extended, with a golf cart nook, epoxy floors, and a newer garage door opener. There is one newer HVAC for the home and an original one for the casita that has hardly been used. Turnkey furnishings are available outside of escrow.
