Pros & Cons

Brand New Construction & Modern Features: Completed in 2023, this home offers all new benefits including energy efficiency (owned solar panels, dual pane Low-E windows, efficient HVAC), state-of-the-art security, and advanced fire prevention systems with a dedicated water system.
Panoramic Mountain Views: Boasts unrivaled panoramic views of the majestic Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountain Ranges, enhancing the property's aesthetic appeal and value.
Spacious & Flexible Layout: A spacious 4-bedroom, 4-bath home with an additional large bonus room that can serve as an extra bedroom, providing versatility and comfort for various living arrangements.
Large, Usable & Fenced Acreage: Situated on a fully fenced and gated 1-acre corner parcel, the lot is entirely usable with beautiful hardscape, offering ample space for horses, gardening, or pets.
Desirable Climate & Tranquil Setting: Located at a 4,000' elevation, the property enjoys a mild 4-season climate with summer temperatures averaging 20 degrees lower than the desert floor, providing peace and tranquility.

Cons

Significant Price Reductions: The property has experienced substantial price reductions from its original listing price of $1,288,000 to the current $999,988, which may suggest initial overpricing or market resistance.
Distant & Mixed School Ratings: Schools are located 9-14 miles away, and some assigned schools have lower ratings (e.g., Nellie N. Coffman Middle School rated 3), which could be a concern for families prioritizing local, highly-rated educational options.
Semi-Rural Location & Commute to Amenities: While offering tranquility, the semi-rural location requires a 25-minute drive to Palm Desert for extensive dining, shopping, and medical facilities, which may be inconvenient for buyers seeking immediate urban conveniences.
