Property Description
Discover this classic 1938 Palm Springs cottage, flawlessly updated for today's desert living. By opening up the living space, this home provides a comfortable entertaining environment along with two bedrooms and two baths. You'll enjoy the variety of gorgeous tile selections throughout, and curated color palettes that elevate the home's style while maintaining the fun, carefree feel of desert living. From the central gas fireplace that anchors the living room, to the multiple access points to the backyard, this home is flawless. The living room has two doors leading to a covered outdoor living room that acts as the hinge between the interior and the backyard. This mirroring of the living space extends the livable area outside to enjoy the pool, spa, and large backyard with mountain views. The backyard also has generous space along the south side, which has the potential for RV parking or possibly the future location of an ADU. From the kitchen -- with its full suite of newer appliances, walnut cabinets, and quartz counters with a waterfall edge at the dine-in prep island -- to the spectacular bathroom finishes, nothing has been overlooked. The large primary suite has backyard access as well as an en-suite bath with a double vanity, while the guest bath includes a shower and tub so that any level of spa experience can be achieved. The updates aren't only skin deep: an updated electrical panel and wiring, a stackable washer/dryer in the laundry room off the kitchen, a pool system with remote control, plumbing updates, and many more. The home also operates as an active short-term rental and meets all code compliance necessary to do so. Nothing has been overlooked. ADDITIONAL ITEMS AND AMENITIES • Full update of the kitchen and both baths, include cabinets, finishes, fixtures, plumbing, and appliances. • Backyard pool and spa is newer with remote pool access for equipment • Professional landscaping includes artificial turf mixed with a repeating geometric decking pattern creating both ample front parking space and an enjoyable entertaining backyard.
