About this home

Two-bedroom, two-bath on the ground floor of Mesquite Country Club, gated, South Palm Springs! The kitchen is what you will remember. Deep navy cabinets below, white above, and butcher block counters running the length of both sides with a window over the sink. It is warmer than what usually comes out of a rental remodel, and it makes the room feel like somebody actually chose it instead of ordering it. Stainless appliances throughout. Warm plank floors run through the whole place, and the ceiling opens up over the living room with a fan turning overhead. White walls, an arched window beside the front door that catches the morning, and light coming from both ends of the day. Both bedrooms are real bedrooms, and both bathrooms were done in the same hand: light oak vanities and white counters. The primary has a walk-in glass shower tiled in white with a full-height linen tower beside it. The second has a tub, which is the sort of thing two people end up negotiating over, and here nobody has to. Everything is on one level, and the front door is at ground height. No stairs with groceries, no flight to wrestle a suitcase up, no landing to navigate when your hands are full. If you have ever lived up a staircase, you already know what that is worth.Off the living room is your own covered patio, and it is genuinely private. Walls close it in on the sides, and a block retaining wall runs the back with desert plantings behind it, so you are sitting in an enclosed space rather than on display to the walkway. A wood lattice cover casts shade throughout the day. One of the bedrooms opens onto it as well, and because it sits at grade with the landscaping instead of hanging above it, it works like another room instead of a ledge. Your washer and dryer are out there, full-size and side by side, not a stacked closet unit. Mesquite sits behind a gate on thirty-three acres, and the grounds are the reason people renew. Curving walkways, mature trees, flowering hedges, and fountains are tucked between the buildings. Pools and spas are scattered all through the property rather than gathered at one clubhouse, so there is almost always a quiet one open. The nearest building has its own spa and an open view toward the mountains. Covered parking comes with the unit, and from the ground floor it is a flat walk from the car to the door. Shops and restaurants are close by, and downtown Palm Springs is about five minutes out. Come take a look
