More Insights

Built in 1989 (37 years old).
Condition: Built in 1989, this home presents a well-maintained but largely original or early-renovated interior. The kitchen features dated white glossy cabinets, black countertops, and older appliances (white refrigerator, black double oven), while the bathrooms showcase 80s/90s styles with gold-tone fixtures, marble-look surfaces, and dated vanities. Flooring is a mix of light tile and parquet wood, which, while clean, is not contemporary. The property description itself notes an 'opportunity to enhance and tailor' and mentions the 'Age of Systems/Infrastructure' as a potential weakness, indicating that while functional, significant updates are needed to modernize the aesthetics and potentially some major systems.

About this home

Located within the prestigious, gated golf community of Morningside, known for its mature landscaping and exceptional security, this detached grand-format home offers a well-designed layout, generous proportions, and a timeless architectural presence. High ceilings throughout--highlighted by a vaulted main living room with room-length skylights--fill the home with natural light and create an open, inviting atmosphere. The thoughtfully planned floor plan includes three spacious ensuite bedrooms, with a fourth bedroom being used an office with fireplace, and 4.5 bathrooms. Each bedroom features sliding doors opening to private outdoor patios, and one bedroom includes a separate sitting room, providing flexibility for guests, work-from-home needs, or extended stays. The primary suite is generously sized, complete with a fireplace, dual ensuite baths, and two walk-in closets. Outdoors, the private backyard overlooks a tranquil lagoon and captures northwest-facing mountain views, creating a peaceful setting for everyday living and entertaining. A large side yard framed by fruit trees offers additional outdoor space, while the pool and spa--with a rock waterfall and recent replaster--provide a serene retreat. The home is complemented by a two-car garage plus a dedicated golf cart garage. Residents also enjoy access to a community dog park, adding convenience for pet owners. This home offers a wonderful opportunity to enhance and tailor a well-proportioned residence in one of the area's most desirable communities, where the location, layout, and setting provide a strong foundation for enjoying the desert lifestyle.
