The property was built in 1991 (34 years old) and features original kitchen and bathrooms with dated oak cabinetry, tile countertops, and white appliances. While the home is well-maintained with significant recent system upgrades—including new upper and lower HVAC units, new ducts, a new water heater, and fresh paint/carpet—the core wet areas are over 30 years old and require cosmetic modernization to meet current market standards.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 43560, living area = 3589.
Situated on a sprawling one-acre corner lot in the exclusive Cahuilla Hills, this estate offers rare privacy and significant space for expansion or custom amenities in a prestigious enclave.
The property features breathtaking, unobstructed views of the mountains and valley from multiple vantage points, including a private primary balcony and a newly renovated wrap-around deck.
With only three dedicated bedrooms for over 3,500 square feet of living space, the current configuration may feel undersized for families or guests at this price point.
Despite the large lot and luxury positioning, the absence of an existing pool or spa is a notable omission for a Palm Desert estate, requiring further buyer investment.
