    Experience modern comfort and thoughtful upgrades in this turnkey home located in Desert Highland Gateway Estates. Step behind the front gate and into a classic Palm Springs stunner where clean lines, warm light, and an inviting flow define this single-story retreat just minutes from Downtown. A spacious, fully fenced yard creates a private, modernist first impression. As you approach the black window-pane door stands like a modern art piece simple, bold, and beautiful guiding you into the stylish entryway. Offering 4 bedrooms and 2 baths across 1,284 sq ft, this home sits on a 7,840 sq ft lot with mountain views and a direct-access 2-car garage. Inside, warm faux tiled floors and soft natural light lead to an open living space where the kitchen, dining, and lounge areas blend effortlessly. Quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances including a polished 5-burner stove with a minimalist wall-mounted range hood set the tone for modern Palm Springs living. A chic dining bar with dual wine refrigerators adds a touch of retro sparkle. Inside, the four bedrooms and two refreshed bathrooms feature clean subway tile, modern fixtures, and a walk-in rainfall shower for a bright, chic interior. The primary room features updated bathroom with a stylish walk-in shower. Sliding doors open to the backyard, creating that iconic indoor-outdoor connection. The entertainer’s backyard feels like a vintage desert hideaway with a shaded pergola, spa, and relaxed lounge zones. Enjoy a beautifully crafted custom BBQ for effortless, year-round entertaining, perfect for gatherings, dinners under string lights, or simply taking in views of the Aerial Tramway. The front yard is also pre-verified by the City for a pool permit. The home includes smart upgrades such as a 3.6 kW solar system with 10 Trina panels offsetting about 60% of annual electricity use, paired with an LG Chem back-up battery. A commercial-grade Lennox AC system ensures pristine climate control, while the Life Source whole-house filtration system provides purified water throughout. Includes Brinks security system. Located minutes from Downtown you’re surrounded by retro boutiques, iconic dining, art galleries, design shops, and nighttime glam. Minutes from the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway offering a breathtaking cinematic mountain views. Short drive to the Coachella Festival, this home shines as a stylish primary residence, a chic desert escape, or a high-demand Airbnb/STR investment. No HOA or Mello.
