Property Description

Behind the gates of Starlight Dunes, a newly refreshed desert retreat awaits. Thoughtfully updated and move-in ready, this single level residence offers 3 bedrooms + a den, 3 baths, and approximately 2,525 square feet of refined comfort in the heart of North La Quinta. New flooring flows seamlessly throughout the home, complemented by fresh interior and exterior paint, new carpet, and refreshed landscaping with updated irrigation. At the center of the home, the kitchen has been completely transformed with brand-new kitchen cabinetry, stone countertops, new appliances, and a generous island, creating a clean, contemporary space designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. The open concept living areas are filled with natural light and enhanced by soaring ceilings and expansive sight-lines. A striking stacked-stone fireplace anchors the family room, creating a warm architectural focal point for gathering and relaxation. The spacious primary suite offers a private retreat of its own, complete with a fireplace that adds comfort and ambiance. Outdoors, a private Pebble-finish pool and spa with water feature create a tranquil setting framed by newly refreshed landscaping. Whether enjoying quiet mornings poolside or hosting beneath the desert sky, the backyard invites year-round desert living. Starlight Dunes, known for its low HOA, IID utility district, and proximity to top-rated schools, shopping, and dining, this residence presents a rare opportunity to own a beautifully updated home in one of North La Quinta's most established communities.
