About This Home
OPEN HOUSE - APRIL 11th!! We are finally open after being fully booked for months! Come see this gorgeous home, located on the 15th fairway of the De Anza Golf Estates with NO HOA! It is the perfect getaway, and our short term guests know it... hence why it has been booked over and over again! For either full time, second home or investment property, this house checks the boxes. VERY well maintained and updated by the current owner including: New cedar exterior siding, new pool pump and filter, new HVAC's, new garage door, new hot water heaters (2), new flood gates, new fencing, newer sliders, new oven and stove top, new back up refrigerator, new washer/fryer, new floor grouting, and even new kitchen cabinets!! Currently operating as a second home/successful short-term rental(pro-forma available), this property offers an immediate return on investment for the savvy buyer who may also want a special escape of their own. On a lot size of nearly half an acre, the home is spacious, comfortable and features a private lock-off attached ADU like unit, with it's own A/C unit and kitchenette. (there are two A/C units in the home). There is an attached 2 car garage (no direct access into home from garage), and large driveway with ample space for parking. The layout of the home accommodates families and groups, maximizing rental potential and offers comfort and privacy as primary residence, "lock and leave" second home, short term rental, or both/all! Give yourself room to stretch, breathe and take in the peace, tranquility and warmth of the desert environment in one of the only "Dark Sky" Communities in the USA. Enjoy stunning, unobstructed views and world-class stargazing opportunities from your own backyard! Living in a dark sky community is special because it offers stunning, star-filled nights, which has been found to improve overall health by regulating sleep/hormones! Don't miss the chance to own a piece of Borrego Springs—a lucrative investment property, a peaceful escape, or your permanent desert sanctuary!
