Elegant Cul-de-Sac Retreat with Pool, Spa & Mountain Views! Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of Palm Desert, this expansive three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence offers refined desert living with breathtaking mountain views, generous entertaining spaces, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Inside, the home is beautifully appointed with 14" tile flooring, luxury vinyl plank in select areas, cellular window treatments, and upgraded LED lighting throughout. The expansive open kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring granite countertops, tile backsplash, high-end stainless steel appliances, a wet bar with wine fridge, and a breakfast bar with ample seating. The great room is warm and inviting, anchored by a tiled gas fireplace with custom built-in cabinetry and shelving - perfect for housing audiovisual equipment and enhanced by built-in rear-channel speakers. Adjacent to the living area, a versatile flex space currently serves as a game room but easily transitions into a formal dining or additional seating area, all while capturing stunning mountain views. An informal dining area just off the breakfast bar features glass French doors that open to an expansive side yard with custom tiered hardscape and artificial turf, creating a tranquil setting framed by the surrounding mountains. The primary suite is a true retreat, offering updated vinyl plank flooring, recessed LED lighting, a stylish fandelier, and glass French doors with invisible screens that open directly to the lanai - perfect for enjoying the desert lifestyle year-round. The spa-inspired ensuite bath features dual sinks with stone countertops, a glass-enclosed shower with bench, a jetted soaking tub, and a spacious walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms are generously sized and filled with natural light, sharing a well-appointed pass-through bathroom with dual sinks and a shower/tub combination. Outdoors, the property truly shines. The expansive lanai and extended patio create multiple areas for relaxing and entertaining, while the yard wraps around to the front of the home where a sparkling pool and spa await - set against dramatic mountain views that define desert living at its finest. Additional highlights include leased solar ($282 mo), a large laundry room, newer HVAC system, and an oversized, insulated, climate-controlled 2.5-car garage with epoxy-sealed floors and a 240v outlet for an EV charger. Ideally located near Albertsons and Bristol Farms shopping centers, this home offers convenient access to grocery stores, dining, and everyday amenities. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy space, comfort, and stunning scenery in a prime Palm Desert location.
