Featuring 4 Bedrooms (one currently used as an office has its own en-suite bathroom), a master bedroom with en-suite, and two additional guest rooms. Custom closet organization systems in the primary bedroom and two of the guest rooms. All Showers are beautifully tiled with custom glass doors/surrounds and the master bath has dual vanities. Granite counters, Viking appliances and a wine fridge complete the amazing kitchen. Inside laundry room with ample storage. Custom shutters throughout and interior and exterior were painted in 2020. The large Great room features tongue and groove ceiling and open beams with French doors leading to two distinct outdoor spaces. Each side has a large covered patio and distinct entertaining space offering endless opportunities to entertain or unwind. One side includes Mountain Views and the sparkling Salt water pool and Spa with new pebble tech and all new equipment. Recently upgraded with new Cool Decking with diamond grind surface. Heated pool and spa with additional roof mounted solar pool heater providing eco-friendly year-round enjoyment. The other side includes a treed garden and illuminating fire pit . A large side yard with desert plants, meandering flagstone walkway and drought tolerant landscaping with automated irrigation make for easy maintenance. The property is walled for privacy and includes a 1 car garage with built in storage cabinets and Granitex epoxy flooring surface. A new tankless water heater was added in 2024. Dual HVAC and ceiling fans throughout for energy efficient heating and cooling. Whether it's a lively gathering under the desert skies or a quiet morning coffee in your private oasis, this home was designed for the Palm Springs lifestyle. Living in Movie Colony East means being close to it all. You're just minutes from downtown Palm Springs, with world-class dining, boutique shopping, and vibrant nightlife.
