About This Home

As of June 2025

This stunning Lake La Quinta home stands out as one of the few properties in the exclusive, guard-gated community that features a fully detached casita. Entering through an impressive courtyard with epoxy stone floors that extend seamlessly across the entire yard and driveway, you are welcomed by double glass-paneled doors that reveal a grand formal living room accented by vaulted ceilings and a striking custom stack stone fireplace. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, outfitted with brand-new stainless steel appliances including a double oven, dishwasher, and wine fridge along side a large butcher block island that promises delightful culinary experiences. An elegant formal dining room with its own cozy stack stone fireplace and a series of French doors throughout the home enhance the connection to the outdoors, leading you to a super-private, south-facing backyard. Here, you can savor breathtaking mountain views while enjoying a pebble tech salt water pool and spa, with the spacious master bedroom offering direct access to this serene outdoor retreat. Recent upgrades, such as energy-efficient windows, newer air conditioning units, and a hot water heater installed just last month, ensure modern comfort and efficiency. Residents also benefit from exclusive access to a 25-acre lake perfect for electric boating, fishing, and kayaking as well as a 3-acre park complete with tennis courts, a community pool, and picnic areas. Conveniently located near grocery stores, restaurants, a modern movie theater, world-class golf courses, shopping, dining, and seasonal events, this home is the ideal choice whether you're seeking a winter getaway or a peaceful retreat to embrace the best of desert living.
