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.
