Whether you’re trading winter for desert sunshine or ready to let go of the upkeep that comes with a bigger house, this home is ready for your next chapter. Downsizing doesn’t have to mean squeezing in. At 1, 029 square feet, this 1 bedroom, 2 bath condo in Cathedral Canyon Country Club has room for the furniture you love, and guests get a full bath of their own. The vaulted-ceiling bedroom has its own slider and feels like a quiet retreat. Plantation shutters and sliding doors throughout let you set the light, from morning coffee to the evening wind-down. Step through the dining room slider to your private patio and mountain views. HOA #4 is a small enclave of just 84 homes with seven pools and spas. The wider Cathedral Canyon community offers golf, a clubhouse with dining, and tennis. When the season ends, just lock up and leave knowing everything is taken care of. It’s a smart value in a calm, tucked-away setting, only minutes from Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage and Palm Desert.
