Beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhouse-style home in South Palm Desert's sought-after Mountainback community. Private patios and quality finishes set the tone. Positioned just the right distance from one of the community's pools for easy access without sacrificing privacy. A beautifully landscaped, hedge-lined patio creates a private outdoor retreat, while French doors off both the living and dining areas open to separate patios, enhancing the home's indoor-outdoor appeal. A convenient powder bath completes the main level. The open-concept living and dining areas feature tile flooring underfoot. The stylish kitchen showcases quartz countertops and handsome cabinetry. New laminate flooring extends throughout the second level and complements the beautifully redesigned staircase, an architectural focal point. Upstairs, the primary suite features an updated ensuite bath, while guest bedrooms two and three share a beautifully finished full bath. Pleasant second-floor views and a consistent theme of quality finishes carry throughout. Additional highlights include close proximity to the community tennis courts, four pools and three spas, nearby hiking trailheads, and just minutes from the shopping and dining of El Paseo. Low HOA fees add to the appeal.
