Tucked within the heart of Sun City Palm Desert, a highly sought-after, award-winning 55+ community, is an inviting two-bedroom, two-bathroom, single-level home which offers timeless charm and effortless comfort. From the moment you step into the semi-private courtyard, featuring upgraded hardscape with custom paver detailing, you’re greeted with a sense of warmth and tranquility — a perfect introduction to the welcoming nature of this lovingly maintained home. Inside, this manageable and efficiently designed "Barbados" floorplan reveals a bright, open layout designed for right-sized living, without sacrificing function. The living spaces are cheerful and cozy, with tasteful finishes like travertine tile and a custom paint scheme, along with just the right touch of desert character. Each bedroom is generously sized, and the bathrooms are well-appointed for both function and ease. The owner's retreat features views of lush plantings and the peaceful rear yard; a dual sink vanity, walk-in shower, oversized closet, and private commode round out the ensuite's offerings. Just across the hall, the guest bedroom looks out at the front south-facing courtyard. Heading out back, a serene oasis awaits; a covered patio — also with renovated paver hardscape and an available gas line for BBQs or a firepit feature — offers the perfect spot for morning coffee or quiet evenings under the stars. Mature fruit trees provide beauty, shade, and seasonal delights — an enduring symbol of the thoughtful care this residence has enjoyed over the years. More than a home, this property is a legacy of love, laughter and grace, and is ready to welcome its next chapter. Your well-deserved lifestyle is here: three clubhouses, two 18-hole golf courses, an 18-hole putting course, dining, multiple pools and spas, 200-seat theater with stadium seating, softball field, over 80 clubs and social groups await.

Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 2000, this home is well-maintained and move-in ready, as evidenced by the clean appearance and description of 'lovingly maintained.' However, the kitchen features dated light wood cabinets, white appliances, and basic countertops, which are functional but not contemporary. Similarly, the bathrooms, while clean, also exhibit older-style vanities and fixtures. The travertine tile flooring is a positive, but the bedroom carpets show some wear, and some light fixtures are outdated. The property requires minor cosmetic updates to the kitchen and bathrooms to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Extensive Community Amenities: The property is located within an award-winning 55+ community offering three clubhouses, two 18-hole golf courses, multiple pools and spas, a 200-seat theater, and over 80 clubs, providing a rich and active lifestyle.
Well-Maintained & Upgraded Outdoor Spaces: Features a semi-private front courtyard and a serene covered rear patio, both with upgraded paver hardscaping, an available gas line for BBQs/firepit, and mature fruit trees, enhancing curb appeal and outdoor living.
Efficient & Tasteful Interior Design: The 'Barbados' floorplan offers a bright, open, and efficiently designed single-level layout with tasteful finishes like travertine tile and a custom paint scheme, optimized for comfortable living.
Ideal for 55+ Living: A single-level, two-bedroom, two-bathroom home designed for effortless comfort and manageable living, perfectly suited for the target demographic seeking convenience and accessibility.
Prime Location within Sun City: Situated in the heart of the highly sought-after Sun City Palm Desert, ensuring convenient access to all community offerings and a desirable, established neighborhood.

Cons

Age Restriction (55+ Community): The property's location within an age-restricted community significantly narrows the potential buyer market to individuals aged 55 and older.
High Monthly Association Fees: The substantial monthly association fee of $431.50 adds a significant recurring cost to homeownership, which could be a deterrent for some buyers.
Modest Square Footage: With 1380 sqft, the home offers 'right-sized' living, which may be considered modest for some buyers seeking larger residences or more expansive living spaces in the Palm Desert area.
