Palm Springs Foreclosure on Conchita Way - $369,900.

This Palm Springs foreclosure home in the very popular Los Compadres neighborhood is located on a great cul-de-sac.  While the home has a "tidy" yard, the home, as you might guess from the price, will need some TLC.  There have been some modifications to the master bedroom that many buyers may decide to convert back to the original plan. I don't think it's a difficult job.....

The backyard is south-facing and has great mountain views.  And, there's a pool to keep you cool this summer!

Twisted Bistro Open in Smoketree Village

You may have seen the sign for quite some time.  Twisted Bistro is now open for breakfast, lunch and dinner with brunch on the weekends.  Their first day was last Sunday.  I haven't eaten there yet, but will certainly give them a try.  As a vegetarian, I'll be limited to only a few items on the menu.  Hopefully they will decide to have at least one veggie entree!

I'm so excited to have them open because it's another dining place that we can walk to from our Los Compadres home.  While not all parts of the neighborhood are walkable (comfortably) to Smoke Tree, all homes west of Farrell certainly are.

Speaking of walkable, have you noticed the "Walk Score" on my new listing links?  I think it's a neat thing to have, especially for those of us who desire a home within walking (or biking) distance of restaurants, stores, etc.

Hope you support our new local restaurant!
