Sun City Palm Desert - Portofino (Greatroom). Perfectly situated near the heart of the community--just around the corner from the Sunset View Clubhouse--this highly sought-after Portofino greatroom floorplan offers the ideal blend of space, comfort, and resort-style living. Inside, you'll find three ensuite bedrooms, a powder room, and a formal dining room, all centered around a spacious greatroom with a tile-trimmed gas fireplace and custom built-in media center. Twelve-foot ceilings in the foyer and main hallway, along with ten-foot ceilings throughout the rest of the home, create an open, elegant atmosphere. The chef's kitchen features slab granite countertops with bullnose edge, a center island, wall oven, skylight, walk-in pantry, and a rimless corner window that captures views of the pool. The formal dining room is distinguished by its elegant octagonal coffered ceiling. The extended primary suite includes a slider to the rear patio, two walk-in closets, and a private retreat perfect for an office or exercise space. The primary bath offers dual sinks, a stall shower, and an oversized soaking tub. Two guest suites are located on the opposite side of the home, providing excellent privacy for all. Out back, the resort-style yard showcases a PebbleTec pool and spa with cascading spillover and flagstone accents, surrounded by an expansive decorative concrete patio. Curb appeal is enhanced by a gated front courtyard, double-door entry, and decorative hardscape. Additional features include a laundry room with cabinetry and utility sink, a 2-car plus golf cart garage with epoxy flooring, and dual Lennox AC units (new in 2013).
