Property Description

Welcome to your next investment or personal retreat in the heart of Palm Desert's coveted Desert Falls Country Club a rare, gated golf community that is one of the few in the Coachella Valley still permitting short-term rentals. This bright, move-in ready upper-level condo is already an active short-term rental, meaning the right buyer can start generating income from day one - no ramp-up, no waiting. Inside, you'll find an open, light-filled floorplan featuring custom shutters, soaring ceilings, and low maintenance vinyl flooring throughout. The kitchen impresses with stone countertops, recessed lighting, and a cozy breakfast nook, while both bathrooms have been elegantly refreshed with matching stone counters and modern fixtures. A wet bar and fireplace in the living room make entertaining effortless, and the private balcony overlooks a lush, expansive greenbelt. The two-car attached garage adds convenience rarely found at this price point, and the in-unit laundry with washer and dryer included seals the deal. Your HOA dues cover more than you'd expect: cable TV, high-speed internet, and water are all included, keeping operating costs predictable and attractive for short-term rental guests who expect everything at their fingertips. Resort-style amenities abound: over 20 pools and spas, tennis and pickleball courts, a fitness facility, golf course access, and a full country clubhouse. With 1,000 units in the community, there's always something happening yet this interior location keeps things peaceful. Ideally situated mid-valley, you're walking distance to Cal State San Bernardino's Palm Desert campus and UC Riverside, and just minutes from premier dining, shopping, and entertainment. Own the lifestyle. Generate the income. Start on day one.
