Sun City Palm Desert – St. Croix. This meticulously upgraded home was never occupied by the current owner, making it essentially new. The backyard is a private resort-style retreat, featuring a 2025 PebbleTec saltwater pool and spa, an extended paver patio, gentle rock water feature, and lush desert landscaping. Rooftop solar keeps energy costs low with a lease of only $180/month, and the owner has never paid additional for electricity since. The gated front courtyard and fresh, updated paint provide immediate curb appeal. All windows have been upgraded to vinyl. Inside, 18” diagonal tile, crown molding, and custom shutters flow throughout the home. The greatroom is bright and inviting, with French doors opening to the backyard, a gas fireplace with tile surround, and a built-in media center. French doors off the greatroom lead to the den/office, which connects via a pocket door to the hobby/bonus room. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, with slab granite counters, tile backsplash, breakfast bar with pendant lighting, under-cabinet lighting, and raised maple cabinets continuing into the bathrooms and laundry. The spacious primary suite features two large walk-in closets and a bay window. The luxurious primary bathroom boasts a custom tile stall shower with a frameless rain-glass enclosure, a granite-surfaced vanity with upgraded sinks, fixtures, mirror, and lighting. The guest bathroom is equally upgraded with a tub/shower combination. The laundry room offers built-in storage and a utility sink. The extended 2+ car garage includes space for a golf cart, built-in storage, hanging racks, and an epoxy floor. Additional upgrades include a new AC system installed in 2022. This home combines elegant finishes, modern upgrades, and a true resort-style backyard–an opportunity not to be missed!
