1474 E Baristo Rd Welcome to 48@Baristo, an exclusive, award-winning enclave recognized with Architectural Merit and Honor from the esteemed DesignArc, and built by the well-regarded developer PS Modern. This architectural masterpiece embodies the seamless integration of living spaces, structure, and environment. Situated in an exclusive, low-density, 48-unit community, it has been recently revitalized with an exquisitely designed desert garden retreat and fresh paint, enhancing its architectural beauty. Truly the ULTIMATE PIECE OF ART, this sophisticated townhome blends comfort with cutting-edge design. It's a work of art that merges modern living with architectural brilliance. This luxurious, posh pad feels like it's straight from the pages of Architectural Digest. Majestic, jaw-dropping mountain views complement the incredible indoor-outdoor living. This home features three distinct patios: an East-facing patio perfect for morning coffee and breakfast, a West-facing patio ideal for lounging by the pool and spa with sweeping 180-degree mountain views, and a Southeast-facing upper deck, located between both bedrooms, to bask in the winter sunshine. Due to its south-facing orientation, this unit is one of the best B-plans in the development. Entertain effortlessly in the open floor plan, where glass walls blur the lines between the living/dining areas and the lush pool/spa space. Soaring ceilings, skylights, and clerestory windows flood the home with natural light, while every detail exudes sophistication. The renovated kitchen, with ample countertops, boasts high-end finishes and premium appliances. Upstairs, retreat to two spacious, exquisitely renovated en-suite bedrooms, each a private sanctuary where refined Italian porcelain slab flooring and serene design invite you to unwind and indulge in ultimate comfort, as if in your own personal spa-like haven. The closet walls have been thoughtfully removed to create a more open and expansive space in the bedroom, offering an opulent, airy feel. Should one prefer a traditional setup, the room accommodates the reinstallation of closets, allowing for versatile customization. The expansive guest bedroom en-suite boasts its own private entrance, perfect for use as an elegant guest casita or a bright live-work space. Featuring clerestory and large windows (facing East for morning sun), as well as additional south-facing windows that offer stunning views of the southern mountains and abundant natural light during the winter. This sleek room includes a generous walk-in closet, Italian porcelain flooring throughout, and its own mini-split heating and cooling system. Additional upgrades include owned solar, a mini-split HVAC for the casita, remodeled baths, a variable-speed pool pump, water filtration, sound insulation, blackout window coverings, artificial turf, recessed lighting, and a smooth coat finish on the walls. Enjoy effortless living with this low-maintenance retreat simply lock and go. You OWN the land. Just a short stroll to downtown, Arenas bars, the trendy Design District, Farmers' Market, shopping, fine dining, cafes, museums, the gym, Spa Casino, Camelot Theater (Film Festivals), PS Swim Center, Urgent Care, parks, tennis, golf, hiking trails, and more. Low HOA dues include roof, water, earthquake insurance, cable, and internet.

This isn't just a home; it's the ultimate expression of Palm Springs living.
