Embraced by one of the largest homesites in Cathedral City's guard-gated resort community of Rio del Sol, this beautifully upgraded residence offers a private desert oasis. Graced with professionally designed and maintained landscaping and hardscaping, the property extends nearly 11,326 square feet and presents unsurpassed curb appeal. A winding path leads to the covered entry porch, and the extra-private backyard has everything an entertainer desires. Enjoy hosting large parties and intimate gatherings around a pool and spa with new heater and pump, a tranquil fish pond, a dining patio with built-in table, an after-swim shower, fireplace, new built-in BBQ, an Alumawood patio cover with misting system, and mature avocado, tangelo and Meyer lemon trees. Equally impressive, the single-story home's interior is open, light and spacious, with three bedrooms and two baths offered in approximately 2,167 square feet. Vaulted ceilings highlight most areas, and fireplaces warm the living and family rooms. Shaker cabinetry is showcased in an upgraded white-on-white kitchen with peninsula bar, pantry and breakfast nook. Upgrades continue in a primary suite with private bath, walk-in closet, patio and retreat/office. Enjoy illuminated built-in shelving, wood-look laminate flooring, plantation shutters, fresh white paint, mirrored wardrobe doors, solar power, newer AC, an attached two-car garage, and dual-pane windows and doors including a dramatically arched bedroom window.
