Detailed Introduction Of This Home
As gates open, you are welcomed to 55-and-better Villa Portofino by paver-lined streets, a Mediterranean-styled fountain, and an elegant clubhouse, soon arriving at this highly upgraded, meticulously maintained, fully detached condo home, so conveniently located in Palm Desert. Be drawn in by the long gallery foyer leading to an open-style living space, all with Italian porcelain floors, 10-foot ceilings, wood window shutters, and custom lighting. The kitchen is fully outfitted for the aspiring or accomplished chef with 5-burner gas cooktop, dual full-size built-in ovens, built-in microwave, stunning backsplash, huge island/bar with yards of Carrera marble and farmhouse sink, and more. Meanwhile the living area offers abundant upgraded cabinetry, a wall of glass to a large covered patio with motorized shades, and even a built-in computer niche. The generous primary suite also accesses the patio, and features a huge walk-in closet as well as a spa-like en suite bathroom with upgraded finishes, and includes separate dual vanities, soaking tub, separate shower, and private toilet compartment. Of course, there's room for more with two additional bedrooms off the gallery hall, one and a half additional baths, and secondary patio. And don't forget touches like solar, separate laundry room, and the epoxy-floored, direct-access double garage. Villa Portofino offers a multitude of amenities: meet friends at the 30,000 square-foot clubhouse, stay fit with the lap pool, spa and fully equipped gym, catch a movie at the onsite theater, and enjoy happy hour or full dining in the bistro. But it's also good to know everything Palm Desert offers is just minutes away, including medical facilities, theater and the best shopping in the desert. While this home is great for lock-and-go seasonal living, you may also find you'll never want to leave.
