About This Home
Ease into resort living in this spacious late-century modern one bedroom + den, two bath condominium, designed by renowned architect Richard Harrison. Located within the much desired Seven Lakes Golf & Country Club, this south facing unit offers views of iconic Southridge from its leisure terrace. Inside, the expansive floor plan showcases clean lines, travertine tile flooring throughout, abundant natural light and versatile living and dining spaces. A custom Murphy bed finished in beautiful wood cabinetry allows for an easy guest room. The contemporary kitchen offers ample quartz counters, gleaming stainless appliances and abundant storage. Your generously sized primary suite is complemented by a large walk in closet, a huge bathroom with built in cabinets and a walk in shower, while the second full bathroom is tucked privately at the rear of the home. A separate den makes a perfect work from home space or Zen room. Then step outside to your private rear courtyard, ideal for entertaining, dining al fresco, or enjoying tranquil mornings surrounded by lush surroundings. A private one-car carport with additional storage, and a ChargePoint Level 2 EV charger are included for your convenience. Other upgrades include new plumbing with a new main water line and updated HVAC. Out your door, the largest of 7 Lakes' 15 tranquil pools is just steps away. Past the 24-hour guarded gate, 'The Gem of the Desert' offers a unique elevated lifestyle with its Ted Robinson-designed 18-hole executive golf course and the lively William Cody designed clubhouse waiting to welcome you to its formal dining room, casual cocktail lounge, and a terrace overlooking the waterfall-fountain. Welcome home!
