Wood-beamed ceilings and a split bedroom layout place the primary on one side and two guest bedrooms on the other for privacy.The primary retreat has two walk-in closets, a freestanding soaking tub with views of the garden and Valley lights, and direct access to a private sitting area on the veranda. The renovated kitchen includes a work island with views, upgraded appliances, custom cabinetry, and opens to the breakfast, dining and living areas.Practical upgrades include three zones of heating and cooling, a backup generator, and EV charging station in the 3-car garage. Outdoors, gardens, multiple seating areas, and paver walkways lead to mature trees and flowering plants where you can enjoy the mountain air and stary skies. If you are seeking a turnkey mountain getaway above the desert floor yet close to Palm Desert amenities, this Pinyon Crest home is a must see.
