About 5713 Desert View Drive
Fantastic Easterly views to the mountains and beyond. 5 bedrooms and 4 full baths, 3BR 2 BA up and 2 BR 2 BA down with totally separate entry. Large recreation room down with full Kitchen. Home is totally rebuilt. Downstairs is a totally separate unit with no access from main house. Below is a gym of about 350 SF, not included in SF above. There are numerous decks and balconies on all levels and a deck off the living room with dramatic view.
