Situated in the scenic foothills of South Palm Desert, Vista Paseo is an intimate gated community of just 86 homes, offering a relaxed desert lifestyle in a remarkably central location. Enjoy easy access to the boutiques and restaurants of El Paseo, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, and nearby mountain hiking trails. Low HOA dues of just $150 per month add to the appeal.One of this property's most compelling features is its exceptional lot of nearly 13,000 square feet -- a rare opportunity to enjoy generous outdoor space, privacy, and room to create something special. A tucked-away side yard offers a wonderful spot for children or pets, while the extra-deep pebble-finish pool and adjoining spa provide the foundation for a terrific desert backyard retreat. Set above and screened from immediate neighbors, the backyard enjoys palm trees, mountain views, and a peaceful atmosphere that is especially inviting on evenings when the patio misters are running.With approximately 2,200 square feet, three bedrooms, and three baths, this is one of the more modestly sized homes in the neighborhood, but the possibilities extend well beyond the house itself. Lovingly maintained by the same owners for 21 years, the residence is ready for a new owner to bring fresh ideas, modern updates, and a personal vision to the space. For buyers who recognize the potential in a desirable location and an oversized lot, this is an opportunity to create a home that truly reflects their own style.Inside, dramatic 16-foot living room walls and clerestory windows provide an impressive sense of volume and natural light, with an ideal backdrop for large-scale art or a contemporary design. The comfortable floor plan lends itself to both everyday living and entertaining, while the spacious covered patio offers additional room to relax or gather with friends during the cooler months. Security shutters on all windows provide added peace of mind when away.A coveted South Palm Desert location, an unusually large lot,
