Palm Desert, California 92260
Analysis of 71790 Jaguar Way, Palm Desert, California 92260 is currently available with a list price of $1,799,000. The property maintains a Fair Condition Rating (50/100), suggesting the property is in acceptable condition with potential for value enhancement through selective updates and improvements. Located in a high-demand neighborhood within the Palm Desert Unified School District, this asset is categorized as a low-risk, high-reward acquisition suitable for both Buy-and-Hold Investors and Owner-Occupants willing to undertake light renovation work.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1989 (35 years old) with no evidence of a recent major renovation. While the home is well-maintained and functional, the kitchen and bathrooms are dated, featuring original square tile countertops, gold-tone fixtures, and 80s-style cabinetry. The property is move-in ready but requires cosmetic updates and likely system evaluations due to its age.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 49223, living area = 5468.
Situated on 1.13 acres in the prestigious Cahuilla Hills, the property offers unparalleled privacy with palm-dotted grounds and undeveloped desert land extending beyond the pool area.
The 5,468 sqft floor plan features a grand primary suite, a dedicated library, and a ground-floor en suite perfect for multigenerational living or a home gym.
While well-maintained with 'exceptional bones,' the 1989 Mediterranean styling and marble-heavy finishes may require cosmetic modernization to appeal to contemporary luxury buyers.
The significant square footage combined with extensive outdoor amenities like the rock-waterfall pool and large grassy areas will necessitate high ongoing utility and upkeep costs.
Set within Palm Desert's coveted Cahuilla Hills Estates neighborhood, this 5,468 sf Mediterranean home sits behind a dramatic half-circle driveway and grand porte-cochre on 1.13 palm-dotted acres. The bones are exceptional and the opportunity, for the right buyer, is significant. Marble floors run throughout the main level. The formal living room with fireplace and wet bar flows into the formal dining room. A library lined floor-to-ceiling with shelves and a built-in desk connects to a utility room with storage cabinets. The family room: rock wall, media niche, fireplace, and second wet bar opens through an archway to a bright kitchen with KitchenAid and Miele appliances, two sinks, a main stove, indoor grill, built-in desk, and dining area. Sliding doors from both the family room and kitchen open directly to the backyard. On the ground floor, a private en suite with new wood laminate flooring, its own backyard access, and proximity to the laundry room works equally well as a guest suite, gym, or multigenerational living space. Upstairs, the primary suite is its own country, featuring a sitting area, fireplace, two walk-in closets, skylight, and a large private balcony overlooking the grounds. The bathroom is grand in scale with marble throughout and a separate tub and shower. A second en suite offers a skylight, balcony, walk-in closet, and a tucked-away hidden nook through a small arched doorway - one of the home's most unexpected and memorable details. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the upper level. The four-car garage includes a rear bay for RV or oversized vehicle access. The backyard features a pool and spa with rock waterfall and slide, an expansive grassy area, a large swing set, and undeveloped desert land that extends the privacy well past the pool's edge. Well maintained, this is a home with good bones, generous proportions, and a floor plan that lives beautifully as-is, with every reason to make it your own. Located in one of Palm Desert's most distinctive enclaves, minutes from El Paseo shopping and dining, yet a world apart.
