    Location, location, location... this property hits the mark! Not only is it close to famous downtown Palm Springs and all its shopping, dining and activities, it's also right next door to Desert Regional Hospital (Great for nurses or physicians, traveling nurses, etc..) AND it's a downstairs unit. The complex is gated with assigned parking + loads of additional parking for family, friends, or extra vehicles. Speaking of parking, #200 is beside the community's back pedestrian gate, providing easy load-in and out of shopping treasures + access to parking. No big stairways or long walks carrying groceries. Inside the condo you'll notice...NO CARPET, whew! Instead, there's wood-like tile that keeps things cool and easy to clean. There are two bedrooms with ample mirrored closets and a shared tiled & walled back patio with mountain views. The bathrooms have newer updates including a walk-in shower in one of them. There's a stackable washer and dryer. The living room has a slider out to the front tiled patio that provides afternoon shade and an extra locking storage shed. This is an end unit so it has extra light + a feeling of openness. There are ceiling fans throughout, recessed lights, quartz countertops, breakfast bar, dishwasher and fridge. The beautifully maintained and lush community has a large, centered, welcoming pool and spa + tennis courts & community mailbox. Water & trash are included in HOA. Celebrities and the rich and famous have enjoyed Palm Springs living for years..now it's YOUR turn- but at an affordable price. You'll enjoy resort-style living, right here in Rancho El Mirador, at a super affordable price- and you own the land.
