About This Home

As of May 2013

This beautifully updated Alexander mid-century home offers a coveted west-facing backyard with stunning mountain views from both the front and rear, creating a truly exceptional desert setting. Fully renovated in summer 2024, this 4 bedroom, 3 full bath residence seamlessly blends iconic mid-century architecture with thoughtfully curated modern upgrades, delivering a home that is completely move-in ready. Inside, polished concrete floors run throughout, enhancing the clean architectural lines and open concept design. The redesigned kitchen maximizes both form and function with sleek Corian countertops, warm oak veneer cabinetry, a wine fridge, and a Fisher & Paykel refrigerator. The bathrooms have been tastefully updated with a refined nod to mid-century design, while the primary suite serves as a tranquil retreat, complete with a rain shower and picturesque mountain views. Expansive walls of glass and Andersen pocket doors create a seamless indoor / outdoor connection, flooding the home with natural light and embracing the surrounding landscape. The living room is anchored by a striking stone wall fireplace, while a second gas fireplace enhances the outdoor entertaining space, set against lush green grass and thoughtfully designed gathering areas. The backyard has been completely reimagined into a private, resort style oasis. Enjoy a sparkling pool and spa with a cascading waterfall, a gas BBQ, multiple lounge and dining areas, and vintage collectible poolside chaises available for purchase. A built-in sound system and timed exterior lighting elevate the ambiance, making it ideal for both relaxed evenings and lively entertaining under the desert sky. The enclosed front yard is equally impressive, offering privacy, low maintenance artificial turf, and breathtaking mountain views, an ideal space for morning coffee or sunset gatherings. Recent improvements in 2024 include a new foam roof, furnace, A/C unit, rain gutters, and epoxy garage flooring. Additional features include two hot water heaters, updated pool equipment, a sprinkler system, and energy conscious landscaping. The garage is equipped with a washer and dryer, an additional refrigerator, and is prepped for EV charger installation, while a flexible linen closet offers the option for an interior stackable laundry setup. Furniture is available for purchase outside of escrow. Combining timeless mid-century style, modern comfort, and effortless indoor-outdoor living.
