Sandcastles is a gem of a community tucked away in South Palm Springs with big mountain views from one side and verdant golf course views from the other. This 2-story home will impress you with its amount of outdoor spaces, interior light, and separation of bedrooms. Enter through your private gate into a large courtyard that is walled for privacy yet provides amazing West-facing mountain views. Downstairs reveals a living room with vaulted ceiling and 2 patio doors to the courtyard and pool patio with golf course views beyond. The dining room, kitchen with stone countertops and stainless appliances, and a breakfast area with patio door are also highlights. In addition to these public spaces, downstairs is where you will find the 2nd bedroom and full bath that also offers a patio door for light and ventilation. Upstairs is totally dedicated to the primary suite and offers a large balcony with views of the pool and golf course, all shaded by a mature tree. The remodeled primary bath has 2 sinks, shower, and dual closets. Sandcastles offers 6 pools and 3 spas for 48 homes, mostly clustered in groups of 6 around a pool, for an intimate residential resort feeling. All that plus a 2-car fully enclosed garage and you own the land! Furnishings available outside of escrow.
