Unique opportunity to own a garden villa in the heart of the village of Palm Springs. Single level living with an attached 2 car garage. Private courtyard entry, split bedroom plan. Unheard for this area to have a formal dining room & breakfast nook. Spectacular western mountain views overlooking one of 4 community pools/spas. Gated secure community, recently updated with drought tolerant desert-scape and fresh paint. Sunken north/south tennis and pickle ball courts. Full size laundry area is located inside the unit, the main en suite bedroom features a large soaking tub and separate shower. This is a very spacious and elegant floor plan.
