Single-story living, no HOA, and a backyard built for desert evenings - this Whittier Ranch home suits a full-time residence, second home, or investment property. On a 7,841 square foot lot, the home offers 1,914 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, plus a flexible bonus space suited for a home office, formal dining room, or potential 4th bedroom. Parking is abundant, with a 3-car tandem attached garage, a covered carport, and extended driveway space all on the property. A stucco exterior with tile roofing and a covered front porch with an arched entry lead into the home, where tile flooring runs throughout with no carpet anywhere. The open-concept layout connects the living area directly to the kitchen, which features granite countertops, a large center island with seating, stainless steel appliances including a gas range, built-in microwave, and refrigerator, and a built-in desk nook. Ceiling fans are installed throughout, and central air conditioning serves the property. The primary suite includes a tray ceiling and an ensuite bathroom with dual sinks, a soaking tub, and a separate glass-enclosed shower, while the guest bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom and a half bath serves the remaining living space. Outside, a large covered rear patio spans the width of the home, opening to a grass lawn, mature palm trees, string lighting, and a seating area, and the Whittier Ranch community includes a park with a shaded playground. The property is close to the Empire Polo Club, site of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and Stagecoach Festival, with grocery stores, retail shopping, dining, and Fantasy Springs Resort Casino nearby, and it falls within the Desert Sands Unified School District; proximity to the festival grounds also makes this a candidate for seasonal or short-term rental use, subject to any applicable city rental regulations.
