$505,000
Talk about a true desert dream home! Nearly every element has been renewed in a $150,000+ renovation that blends architectural authenticity with a complete modern transformation. Each detail was chosen with quality, design and longevity in mind. Over the past five years, all major systems have been replaced, including the roof, HVAC with new ductwork and vents, full electrical wiring and new panel, all supply and sewer piping and new blown-in attic insulation. Additional updates include a newer water heater, new dual-pane windows and hard-wired smoke detectors.
Sited on a cul-de-sac corner lot, the home makes a striking first impression with its modern desert curb appeal. The enduring desert ranch elevation is defined by clean lines, prominent exposed rafters and fresh modern finishes. The thoughtfully composed landscape achieves a balance between privacy and welcome. Mature palms sway overhead and terraced flagstone steps lead to an arbor draped in vivid bougainvillea. A porch made for lingering stretches almost the full length of the home with a lush hedge offering privacy from the street. At the front door, modern house numbers and a retro-inspired mid-century light fixture set the perfect tone for what lies within.
The entire home has been reimagined with timeless finishes that elevate its mid-century roots. Step inside to discover intuitive spaces, beautifully finished with a cohesive aesthetic and a split floorplan that now includes a brand new primary suite. The open-concept design prioritizes comfort and style while minimizing wasted space, creating interiors that feel both functional and refined. Calming desert vibes flow throughout, with a palette of earthy tones, organic textures and premium materials that ground the modern design. The living, dining and kitchen spaces harmonize effortlessly, offering the perfect setting for connection and entertaining. Curated finishes echo the design palette throughout the home, creating a cohesive and elevated aesthetic.
Large format artisanal Ceppo di Gré terrazzo inspired luxury vinyl plank floors run throughout the main living areas and 3 of the 4 bedrooms. The floors are not only gorgeous, but they are low VOC, water-proof, stain-proof and scratch resistant. Dreamy tile lines the baths with plush carpet in the brand new primary suite. Professionally sandblasted interior block walls reveal the soul of the architecture, while new smooth-coat walls and ceilings and new trim/millworks bring the design into focus. Layers of history meet modern design with the new floors laid over preserved polished concrete. Additional features include all new interior/exterior paint, restored mid-century slab doors with new hardware, LED recessed lighting and an Ecobee smart thermostat.
The kitchen serves as a true centerpiece, both functional and artful in its composition. Custom maple Jensen cabinetry by Cliq Studios showcases meticulous craftsmanship, featuring soft-close drawers, deep pull-outs, pantry storage and a built-in banquette with extra deep storage drawers. The custom cabinetry continues seamlessly into the hallway, reinforcing the home's architectural flow. An authentic Italian terrazzo backsplash pairs beautifully with stacked matte white tile along the range wall. A generous island provides ample space for prep and casual dining. Quartz countertops with double waterfall edges, open maple shelving and vintage pendants from Denmark elevate the aesthetic. Samsung Bespoke white glass appliances, including a gas range/oven introduce a modern note of sophistication. The built-in buffet off the dining area offers the perfect setting for a coffee bar or serving station.
Enjoy the comfort of 4 bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed for relaxation and privacy. Unwind and recharge in the elegance of the brand new luxurious primary suite, just completed in the fall of 2025. The permitted 255 square foot split primary suite addition offers a spa-inspired bath, walk-in closet and laundry facilities. The entirely new primary bath offers a spacious tub/shower featuring fluted designer tile, product niche and shower system with rain head and hand-held shower wand. Additional features include dual flush toilet, backlit mirror, wood vanity with tiled backsplash and gorgeous stone-look tile floors. All secondary bedrooms offer terrazzo luxury vinyl plank flooring, modern ceiling fans and new windows.

Prepare to fall in love with the rear yard, as the owner endeavored to create an atmosphere of serenity with cultivated privacy. Every detail in the rear yard is meticulously curated to enhance the tranquility and offers an endlessly inviting backdrop for any occasion. Brand new block walls are accented with breeze block and modern wood toppers, thoughtfully placed to enhance both privacy and design continuity. Carefree synthetic lawn and herringbone walkways and paver patios create inviting entertaining spaces. The large storage shed enhances functionality without interrupting the home's serene outdoor design. An updated front irrigation system ensures the landscape remains vibrant year-round, while the rear yard's desert-friendly design requires no water at all.
