Despite being built in 1963, this property underwent an extensive and thoughtful renovation in early 2023, bringing all major components and aesthetics to a virtually new standard. The kitchen features sleek, modern cabinetry, high-end stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and contemporary lighting. Bathrooms are equally impressive with modern vanities, backlit mirrors, stylish fixtures, and a freestanding tub. Updated flooring (large format tile) is consistent throughout, and the overall design reflects current quality standards with no apparent deferred maintenance, aligning perfectly with the 'extensively renovated within 5 years' criteria for an excellent rating.

Cons

Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
Original Construction Age: Despite extensive renovations, the property's core structure dates back to 1963, which may present inherent long-term maintenance considerations or potential unforeseen issues typical of older homes.
Unspecified Cooling System Efficiency: In Palm Desert's hot climate, the description's general mention of 'upgraded systems' without specific details on the cooling system's age or efficiency could be a concern for energy costs and comfort.
Limited Immediate Personalization: Described as a 'clean slate for the new owner to make their own,' which, while a positive for some, implies a lack of existing personalized features or finishes that might require additional investment to suit specific tastes.
