Modern desert calm on a private corner lot in guard-gated Escena. Set with only one direct neighbor, this 2019 Toll Brothers contemporary has a sense of openness and privacy that is rare in the community, with the San Jacinto peaks as a daily backdrop. Walls of glass fill the bright 1,975 sq ft single-level floor plan with natural light and open the living spaces to a resort-style backyard made for long desert evenings.The gourmet kitchen is the heart of the home, with a quartz island, five-burner gas cooktop, double ovens and premium appliances, all open to the living and dining areas for easy entertaining. The primary suite opens directly to the pool and offers a spa-style bath with an oversized soaking tub, separate shower and walk-in closet. A second en-suite bedroom, a glass-enclosed den and a powder room give flexibility for guests, a home office, or both.Outside, the heated PebbleTec saltwater pool with a built-in exercise swim jet and spa takes center stage. At twilight, illuminated palms and pool lighting create a distinctly Palm Springs atmosphere, perfect for evenings under the stars.This home is built for effortless ownership and true lock-and-leave living: leased 7.26 kW Tesla solar (22 panels), EV charger, smart HVAC, automatic living-room blinds, whole-house water softener, kitchen reverse-osmosis filtration, hot-water recirculation pump and extensive smart-home features.
