About This Home
Welcome to the newest, best-priced, and move-in-ready home available in the sought-after Verano Community. This 2,076 sq. ft., two-story, 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home features a nice backyard with synthetic grass, perfect for kids to play, entertaining, hosting large gatherings, or just a weekend barbecue with family and friends. Inside, you will find a bright and inviting layout, with natural light filling every room throughout the home. The spacious open floor plan includes a gourmet kitchen and generous formal living and dining areas. The bedroom and a full bath downstairs are a plus. This property was built in 2021, almost new home with all the upgrades and additions included, so you do not have to worry about repairs or anything that will cost money in moving to an older resale home. Not to mention the energy-efficient design of a new home that could include a leased solar system, a tankless water heater, a smart AC thermostat, and top-notch home insulation throughout the house. An alarm system and window blinds are included. The cost of utilities in this newer house will save you money every month, year-round. The maintenance-free synthetic grass throughout the backyard, block walls, and planters will add value over the years to come. There is a playground with green grass at the front of the house, adding even more usable outdoor space for kids and pets alike to enjoy at your convenience. This property is nestled in the beautiful Cathedral City, by D.R. Horton's newest master-planned Community that offers a quality of life for all generations with opportunities to shop, work, and play within the greater Palm Springs area. Verano is just a short drive from Downtown Palm Springs and is located near the 10 Freeway, offering convenient access to Downtown Cathedral City, Palm Springs, and major employers. This home truly captures the essence of desert living, offering peacefulness, privacy, and resort-style amenities, all while being close to shopping, dining, schools, and the vibrant energy of Cathedral City and nearby Palm Springs.
