About This Home
As of July 2019This Old Las Palmas California Ranch was rebuilt and expanded down to the studs in 2014 in a warm modern design. The 2 year renovation was done to perfection for the private use of the Seller. The home required extensive and costly upgrading to bring the property to current code. A total of 4 bedrooms, including a brand new casita with bedroom, living area & kitchenette. The main house was re-imagined to include formal living, kitchen open to dining area & family room w/ views of pool, spa w/ tanning bed and front cantina w/ mt vistas. The Master suite was expanded to include one of 3 fireplaces in the home and walk-in closet. Gourmet chef's kitchen overlooks the front garden, mountain views & private courtyard. The rebuild included all new desert landscape within and outside the walled and gated property. The flagstone entry path & drive was mirrored with new flagstone in the covered back patio. Low maintenance. Close to UP TOWN PS. Pristine Property!!
