About This Home

As of June 2025

Surrounded by the breathtaking Santa Rosa Mountains, the La Quinta Cove has attracted Hollywood's elite since the 1920s and this rare offering is part of that legacy. One of just 63 original casitas built in the Cove, this 1937 Spanish Colonial Revival ranch home is steeped in history and thoughtfully preserved to honor its original charm. Situated on a spacious corner lot, the home offers enhanced privacy with a newly installed ficus hedge and perimeter wall, creating a serene and secluded setting. The original two-bedroom, one-bath layout remains intact, complemented by a recent interior and exterior restoration, including paint, new porcelain wood-look tile flooring, and a new electrical panel, citrus trees. This historic gem is truly move-in ready. Whether you envision it as a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or income property, this Hollywood-inspired casita is brimming with character and functionality. Located just moments from Old Town La Quinta's dining, boutique shopping, local brewery, and world-renowned hiking trails this is your chance to own a unique piece of California history.
