Step into your own private retreat! This beautifully crafted home is brimming with unique details that make it truly special. From the moment you walk through the elegant arched entrance into the front courtyard, you'll feel wrapped in tranquility—a perfect, secluded spot to sip your morning coffee surrounded by lush plants.
Inside, the open-concept layout creates a peaceful vibe. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the living room, making it ideal for both quiet mornings and lively gatherings. But the real showstopper? The breathtaking living room window that frames your very own backyard paradise—complete with panoramic mountain views. When the peaks are capped with snow, it’s like waking up to a postcard.
The backyard is your personal sanctuary, filled with mature fruit trees and frequent visits from hummingbirds. Imagine plucking a ripe orange, lemon, or grapefruit straight from the tree—fresh, organic, and yours to enjoy anytime.
Located within the sought-after Mission Lakes Country Club community, this home comes with incredible amenities. Tee off at the stunning golf course surrounded by mountain vistas and sparkling ponds. Unwind at the resort-style pool, soak in the hot tubs, or hit the tennis and pickleball courts. Have guests? There’s even an on-site hotel for extra convenience. The on-site restaurant is a hidden gem, with a chef who never disappoints, and the café offers a delightful selection of casual meals.
Beyond the gates, adventure awaits! You’re just minutes from world-renowned spots like Joshua Tree National Park, Pioneertown, and downtown Palm Springs. And don’t miss the rejuvenating natural hot springs spas that make Desert Hot Springs so fabulous—they’re right in your backyard.
Whether you’re looking for a full-time residence, a vacation getaway, or an income property, this home delivers the perfect mix of style, serenity, and desert lifestyle.
