Condition Rating
Excellent
This property, built in 2003, has undergone extensive and recent renovations, bringing it to an 'excellent' condition. The description highlights an 'updated kitchen w/ quartz countertops & backsplash, center island w/ 2nd sink & stainless steel appliances including a 5-burner gas range,' which is clearly visible in the images as modern and virtually new. The 'brand new carpet in the bedrooms,' 'new ceiling fans & new LED recessed lights throughout,' and 'tiled floors throughout' (which appear clean and well-maintained) further support a very recent overhaul. While the primary bathroom's tile choice might not be the absolute latest trend, it is impeccably clean, functional, and features a soaking tub and separate shower, aligning with a 'spa-like' description. The overall impression is of a home that has been extensively renovated within the last 5 years, with all key components meeting current quality standards and presenting as move-in ready with no deferred maintenance.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 10454, living area = 1838.
Updated & Modern Interior: The home boasts a stunning updated interior with an open floor plan, updated kitchen featuring quartz countertops, a center island, stainless steel appliances, new ceiling fans, new LED recessed lights, and brand new carpet in bedrooms, offering a move-in ready experience.
Exceptional Outdoor Living: Features a gorgeous private landscaped yard with a pool and spa, a covered patio with recessed lighting and ceiling fans, perfect for indoor/outdoor living and entertaining in the Palm Desert climate.
Financial Advantages: The property is on fee land (buyer owns the land) and has no HOA fees, significantly reducing ongoing ownership costs. It also benefits from a recent $26K price improvement.
Prime Location & Views: Situated on a prime corner lot in College View Estates with desirable mountain views. Its fantastic Palm Desert location offers convenient access to freeways, schools, shopping centers, and renowned golf courses.
Desirable Features & Condition: Includes vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, direct access from the primary bedroom to the pool deck, a spa-like primary bath with soaking tub, separate shower, and walk-in closet, plus double-paned windows throughout.

Cons

Ongoing Pool & Spa Maintenance: While a significant amenity, the pool and spa require regular maintenance, chemicals, and can incur notable utility costs, which may be a consideration for some buyers.
Potential for Higher Utility Costs: Given the desert climate and the presence of a pool and spa, utility costs, particularly for electricity (HVAC, pool pump), could be higher, especially if the main systems are original to the 2003 build and not recently upgraded for efficiency.
Corner Lot Exposure: Being on a corner lot, while offering good curb appeal and potentially more light, can sometimes lead to increased exposure to street noise or traffic, and potentially less privacy compared to an interior lot.
