More Insights

Built in 1976 (49 years old).
Condition: Built in 1976, this property has undergone significant updates, most notably a 'newly renovated bathroom' in the primary suite, which aligns with recent, high-quality standards. While the entire property may not have been extensively renovated within the last 5 years to qualify as 'Excellent,' the description and implied quality from the images suggest a very well-maintained home with modern, high-end features. The kitchen, though not explicitly called 'newly renovated,' is described as a gathering place with an island, indicating an updated and functional space. Other areas, like the custom millwork in the office and the seamless indoor-outdoor living, point to substantial investments and continuous upkeep over the last 20 years by the current owners. The property is move-in ready, with major systems functional and components updated within the last 5-15 years, fitting the 'Good' category.

About this home

Deep Canyon Ranch Private Estate - One of twelve expanded lots in a special, highly sought after section of South Palm Desert. The sprawling Spanish Ranch is set among a splendidly landscaped, .77 acre lot, featuring mature trees, a spectacular custom putting and chipping course, and the heart of the home - the English gardens. The world around you disappears as you enter into the private, gated property. Warmth exudes upon entering the home. A cherished family home for the last 20 years, this is truly a place where memories are made. The living areas flow beautifully from indoor to out through large pocketing sliders. A covered patio area with built in heaters, a fireplace, and media cabinet is a great addition to the living space. The kitchen is a place where people will gather, with barstool seating around the island - a casual sitting area is adjacent to the kitchen. The formal dining room is luxurious and is finished in Ritz-Carlton Gray. The Primary Suite is a retreat - enjoy views out to the pool area, or cozy evenings by the fireplace. A spa-like soaking tub is a highlight of the newly renovated bathroom. Dual walk-in closets and dual water closets keep everyone happy! A handsome office with custom millwork opens to a private patio off the back of the home. Two Guest Suites, a media room, and a powder bath round out the main house. The Guest House features two bedrooms, two baths, and a living room with eating area and kitchenette. We look forward to sharing this home with you!
