Whether you’re seeking a vacation escape or a full-time desert lifestyle, this beautifully maintained Bella model in Mountain Gate delivers. The main house offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, complemented by a separate attached casita with its own private entry and en-suite bath ideal for guests, extended family, or a private workspace. From the entry courtyard, watch the sun dip behind the mountains with a glass of wine in hand. The views stretch spectacularly from the San Jacinto Mountains to the windmills across a sweeping 180-degree panorama. Outside, a saltwater pool and spa anchor a thoughtfully designed outdoor oasis enclosed by smooth-plastered walls for privacy. Gather around the gas fire pit, entertain under the custom Alumawood patio with integrated lighting and fans, or set the mood with color-adjustable Malibu lighting all with minimal upkeep thanks to the desertscape front and rear yards. Select sculptural pieces will convey with the property. Practical touches abound: side yard parking accommodates an RV or extra vehicles, and storage sheds remain for tools and outdoor gear. Recent upgrades include mini-split systems in the casita, garage, and both the primary and secondary bedrooms letting you direct utility costs precisely where you’re living while whole-home central air and heat provide backup comfort. Solar screens on east- and west-facing windows manage the desert sun, and the home is Alexa-compatible, pre-wired for a security system, and fitted with pool alarms on the patio sliders for added peace of mind. Mountain Gate’s location puts you steps from the western end of the CV Link near the Visitors Center, with easy access toward the Tramway and a future trail entry point planned just outside the back gate at Desert Highland Park. Low HOA fees cover the gated entry, daily security patrols, community pools, tennis courts, and basketball court. Spacious, elegant, and endlessly adaptable this is desert living on your terms.
