This mid-century modern gem in the El Mirador neighborhood is quintessential desert living. This home offers a rare blend of historical flair and updated luxury, perfect as a private retreat or a proven investment property. This home boasts an open-concept design with high ceilings and a stacked-stone gas fireplace. Strategically placed windows and sliders provide seamless indoor-outdoor flow and prolific views of Mt. San Jacinto. A ''chef's/cook's kitchen'' features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances (gas range and oven), and dual sinks.Three divinely separated bedrooms, each with its own bathroom makes for easy living with multiple occupants. The Primary Suite Features generous closet space, dual vanities, a large walk-in shower, and an extra-large soaking tub. The larger of the Secondary bedrooms has its own private patio and private bathroom. While the slightly smaller Secondary bedroom is well separated from the rest of the living area and other bedrooms, it has it's own bathroom with shower and is located near the large laundry room with full-size W/D.The backyard is designed for the ultimate Palm Springs lifestyle: A Saltwater Pebble-Tec Pool & Spa features a cascading waterfall effect. Replete with a built-in natural gas BBQ and bar all the while boasting magnificent views of the surrounding mountains. A large linear fire table with marble benches under shade trees creates its own ambiance in a separate part of the yard.Located on fee land (you own it), this home includes a low-cost, leased solar system, and has a very successful history as a long-term (28+ day) vacation rental when not being used by the current owners. The home is tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac in the upscale El Mirador neighborhood just minutes from the Uptown Design District, Ruth Hardy Park (tennis and pickleball), and downtown dining. Nearby hiking trails and public golf courses along with convenient access to the CV Link provides significant opportunities for recreation.
