Property is move-in ready.
While the home was built in 1997 (>20 years), it is exceptionally well-maintained with major system upgrades including three new HVAC units, owned solar, and a recently serviced roof. The primary bath has been modernized with quartz counters, and although the kitchen remains aesthetically dated with original cabinetry and Corian, the property is in functional, move-in ready condition.
The property features significant high-value improvements including three new A/C units with HEPA filtration, owned solar panels, and a recently serviced roof, ensuring low utility costs and long-term mechanical reliability.
A private detached casita with a full bath and walk-in closet offers exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, a guest suite, or a quiet home office separate from the main residence.
The backyard is a private oasis featuring a saltwater pool and spa with a waterfall, intentionally relocated equipment for noise reduction, and low-maintenance desert landscaping.
While the primary bathroom has been modernized, the kitchen retains Corian countertops and older appliance styles, which may require further investment to meet contemporary luxury standards.
The assigned middle school has a rating of 5/10, which may be a consideration for families prioritizing high-performance school districts.
Some homes check every box. This one adds boxes you didn't know to ask for.Nestled within the sought-after gated community of Whitehawk in the heart of Palm Desert, this thoughtfully upgraded 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home with a dedicated private office and a detached casita delivers a lifestyle that feels more like a private resort than a neighborhood address.The sellers have invested methodically -- not cosmetically. Three new A/C and heat units with HEAPA filtration, new attic insulation, Wi-Fi controlled thermostats, a whole-home hot water on demand circulator, wired smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, and new LED can lighting throughout. The tile roof received a complete maintenance service in March 2026. Owned solar keeps monthly energy costs remarkably low.Inside, the large living and dining rooms flow into a family room and den anchored by a gas fireplace. The kitchen features Corian counters, a bar, island, eat-in area, and gas-electric appliances -- a space designed for both daily life and entertaining. The remodeled primary bath impresses with quartz counters, square sinks, and a new tall toilet. Wood shutters and privacy shades finish every window with intention.Step outside and the backyard earns its own conversation. A saltwater pool and spa with waterfall, a covered courtyard, covered patios, and a southwestern-inspired landscape that is low water and low maintenance with an automatic sprinkler system. The pool equipment was deliberately relocated away from the water -- so all you hear while floating is silence and desert air. It's a detail only someone who truly lives here would think to do.The casita adds a private bedroom, bath, and walk-in closet -- ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Whitehawk's low HOA includes cable and internet, with gated entry, wide lit streets, and a central Palm Desert location minutes from El Paseo, top dining, golf, and the I-10.This home wasn't just maintained. It was loved. The sellers would take it with them if they could -- since they can't, it's yours to enjoy now.
