Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Good
TeardownExcellent

Property is move-in ready.

Built in 1982, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready. While the kitchen features a traditional separate layout rather than a modern open-concept, it has been updated with granite countertops and quality cabinetry. The bathrooms are described as spa-inspired with dual vanities and walk-in showers, indicating significant updates from the original construction. The home features high-end architectural elements like vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling glass, and the major outdoor systems (pool/spa) appear functional and well-integrated, meeting the criteria for a well-maintained home within its expected lifespan.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Exceptional Views and Privacy

    Situated on a prized corner lot within a gated enclave, the property offers unobstructed, panoramic mountain and valley views, providing a serene and exclusive desert retreat.

  • Rare RV Parking

    The inclusion of dedicated RV parking is an exceptional and rare feature for a private gated community in Rancho Mirage, adding significant utility and value for enthusiasts.

  • Indoor-Outdoor Integration

    With vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, and a private south-facing courtyard, the home is expertly designed to maximize natural light and seamless access to the pool and patio areas.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • High Carrying Costs

    The monthly association fee of $700 is relatively high, which may impact the overall affordability and appeal for budget-conscious buyers.

  • Dated Layout Elements

    Built in 1982, the home features a separate kitchen layout rather than a modern open-concept design, which may require a significant remodel to meet current buyer preferences.

About 8 Alta Vista

Perched above the valley floor in the private gated enclave of Mirage Cove, this 3 bedroom, 3 bath detached residence captures unobstructed mountain and valley views from a prized corner lot setting. With just 69 single-family homes, Mirage Cove offers a rare combination of privacy and on-site amenities including swimming, tennis, and pickleball - an ideal retreat for those who value both serenity and community. A private south-facing courtyard sets the stage for arrival before double doors open to a light-filled living space defined by vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, a gas fireplace, and a wet bar. Expansive sliders connect the living and dining areas to a covered patio and a generous backyard designed for indoor/outdoor living. The pool and in-ground spa are positioned to maximize sweeping views of the valley floor and surrounding mountains - an ideal vantage point for relaxing evenings and even the occasional sighting of Big Horn sheep across the hillside terrain. The separate kitchen features clerestory windows, granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, and a casual dining area, with direct access to the outdoor entertaining spaces. The Primary Suite enjoys mountain views, patio access, and a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, walk-in shower, and walk-in closet. Junior Ensuite Two is privately positioned on the opposite side of the home with its own patio, dual vanities, soaking tub, and walk-in shower. Junior Ensuite Three also captures views and offers convenient access to a bath with shower/tub combination. Additional highlights include an inside laundry room, attached two-car garage, and rare RV parking - an exceptional feature in this setting. A private hillside retreat with scale, views, and lifestyle that is minutes from the heart of Rancho Mirage.
