A beautifully appointed home with stunning, unobstructed golf course and mountain views is waiting for you. Enjoy your morning coffee at the large kitchen island/breakfast bar overlooking beautiful vistas. The open concept layout provides several lounging and dining areas and plenty of space for entertaining. The expansive wet bar is equipped with a mini-fridge and ice maker and is perfect for enjoying libations with guests and friends. Enjoy the desert skies and spectacular sunsets from the open patio. The pool area, with a fire pit, fire pots, and water features, provides a resort-like ambience for evening entertainment.
