About this home

Sitting at the highest point of the street in one of Bermuda Dunes' most established pockets, this Spanish-inspired single-story pairs classic desert architecture with a freshly reimagined interior. A red barrel tile roof, arched window detail, and white stucco facade are framed by mature palms and cascading bougainvillea. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed beams open over a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stacked stone fireplace, with warm Saltillo tile underfoot and a wall of French doors lining the back of the home, creating a bright, gallery-like great room that flows easily between living, sitting, and dining areas. The kitchen offers white cabinetry and stainless steel appliances including a pro-style gas cooktop with hood, wall oven, microwave, dishwasher, and French-door refrigerator. The primary suite is a true retreat with a tall vaulted ceiling, picture window framing the bougainvillea, brass sconces, plush carpet, and a beautifully updated ensuite featuring travertine tile, double vanity, round black-framed mirrors, matte black fixtures, frameless glass walk-in shower, and a jetted soaking tub beneath a skylight. Recent upgrades include a new HVAC system, refreshed plumbing fixtures, LED lighting, new ceiling fans, updated door hardware, custom window treatments, an integrated 85-inch living room TV with concealed wiring, fresh interior and exterior paint, and a new washer and dryer. The expansive, very private backyard offers mountain views, a generous lawn, mature trees, and reimagined landscaping on an elevated lot. Bermuda Dunes remains one of the valley's best-kept value secrets, with low HOA dues that include a Spectrum TV and internet package, and notably affordable IID electricity. Just 2.7 miles to the BNP Paribas Open, 2 miles to La Quinta Park, 7 miles to Coachella and Stagecoach, 8 miles to El Paseo, and 5 minutes to James Monroe Elementary. A Spanish-style home with serious character, beautiful light, and every meaningful update already done.
