The kitchen is a showpiece, featuring a handmade Italian Ilve gas range with rotisserie spit, modern cabinetry with hidden storage, a hands-free trash cabinet, and an in-drawer microwave.

Light fills the dining and living areas, where a wood-burning fireplace creates a warm focal point. The primary suite fits a California King and includes a built-in projector, dual sinks, backlit mirrors, and a spa-inspired shower.

The walk-out lower level includes a fireplace, laundry, storage, and flexible space for an office and the third bedroom. Outside, enjoy a pebble-tec pool with fountain, shaded patio, and expansive grassy yard. A fully converted 20-foot air-conditioned shipping container with skylights and LVP flooring offers the perfect studio or workspace.

Walk to Trail 100 for desert hikes and stunning sunrises.
