About this property

Space, Privacy and Possibility on One of Avondale's Largest Homesites -- Behind the guard gates of Avondale Country Club, this home pairs a 19,602 square foot lot with 3,610 square feet of living space in Palm Desert. Built in 1972, the home has the generous proportions and indoor-outdoor flow of Avondale's early custom residences. A covered entry leads to a great room framed by distinctive arched windows. Formal dining and a separate family room with a fireplace and built-in bar give you several places to entertain or simply spread out. The kitchen offers granite counters, a center island and extensive built-in storage. The primary suite has a roomy dressing area and a large bath with a sunken tub. The split-bedroom plan keeps guests comfortably separate, and every bedroom opens directly to the private yard. Outside, mature landscaping and citrus trees surround a private pebble-finish saltwater pool and spa. There is plenty of room to lounge, gather and take in the views of the Little San Bernardino Mountains. The home sits along the second fairway of the 18 hole golf course, yet the lot is deep enough and surrounded by mature plantings, to keep it private from the course. An oversized two-car garage, a separate golf-cart garage and additional storage complete the property. For buyers who value generous architecture, established landscaping and a substantial homesite, this is a home with both presence and potential. Avondale is a private, guard-gated community. Homeowners receive a Resident Social Membership, which includes clubhouse dining and social events, fitness facilities, tennis, pickleball, a driving range and putting green, and a dog park. Full golf club membership is available for an additional fee.

Loan assumptions and ownership costs

Blank costs are excluded, not confirmed to be zero. Get taxes, insurance and HOA estimates for this property; prior-owner taxes may change after purchase. Mortgage insurance depends on your loan—ask your lender.

Enter your rate and costs, then calculate.

Illustration only—not a rate quote, preapproval, lending offer or affordability determination. Assumes equal monthly payments on a fully amortizing fixed-rate loan; no adjustable rates, interest-only periods or balloon payments. Excludes closing costs, utilities, maintenance, special assessments and other unentered costs. Actual payments and escrow can differ. Review a Loan Estimate with your lender.
