Description

Not available to be shown until after June 20! Welcome to this renovated 4BR/3BA Palm Springs retreat, the lifestyle buyers are searching for mountain views, and income potential! Set behind gates on an approximately 10,000 sq ft lot with stunning San Jacinto mountain views, this south-facing home blends modern comfort with resort-style living just minutes from Downtown Palm Springs. Designed for indoor-outdoor living, the open-concept layout features soaring vaulted ceilings, wide-plank flooring, abundant natural light, and expansive sliding doors opening to a private backyard oasis framed by mature hedging, perimeter walls, and lush desert landscaping. The spacious backyard is ideal for entertaining, featuring a heated pebble-tech pool with updated plaster and equipment, a built-in BBQ area, and an expansive covered patio perfect for lounging or outdoor dining while enjoying breathtaking mountain views. The chef’s kitchen combines style and functionality with top-of-the-line appliances, quartz countertops, and a large breakfast bar island that flows effortlessly into the living and dining areas. The primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat with direct pool access, vaulted ceilings, natural light, a spacious walk-in closet, and a updated spa-style bathroom with soaking tub and separate walk-in shower. The secondary bedrooms offer large closets, expansive windows, and views of the private desert-landscaped front yard, while sharing an updated resort-style bathroom with double vanity and oversized walk-in shower. A versatile fourth bedroom with ensuite bath and separate entrance offers flexibility as a guest suite, office, gym, bonus room, or potential separate rental space. Originally created from a portion of the garage, the garage door remains fully functional with automatic opener access, and the space can easily be converted back to a traditional garage by removing one temporary wall. Additional upgrades include updated AC systems, roof, and pool equipment, a smart NEST climate control system, and remote-operated pool controls for convenient management of the heater, lighting, and equipment. With potential eligibility for a City of Palm Springs short-term rental permit, this property presents an exceptional opportunity as a primary residence, vacation home, or investment property.
