Property Description

Welcome to your ultimate desert escape! Nestled within the prestigious, guard-gated community of Legacy Villas in beautiful La Quinta, this highly desirable 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom ground-floor condo offers the perfect blend of resort-style luxury and turnkey convenience. Thoughtfully designed with a popular dual primary suite layout, it maximizes privacy by separating the bedroom suites with a generous, open-concept living and dining area. Step inside to a warm, inviting living space that flows seamlessly to a private covered patio--ideal for sipping morning coffee, outdoor dining, or relaxing with tranquil views of the lush, professionally manicured greenbelt. The fully equipped kitchen boasts full-size appliances, ample cabinetry, and a layout that makes entertaining a breeze. For added convenience, the home includes an in-unit stacked washer/dryer and a detached one-car garage. Each bedroom serves as a private retreat and features a comfortable king-size bed. Both suites boast spacious en-suite bathrooms: one includes a relaxing soaking tub and separate walk-in shower, while the second bathroom is equipped with a convenient ADA-accessible shower. Whether you are looking for a full-time residence, a seasonal getaway, or an investment property, this versatile layout makes this condo a desert standout. As an owner, you will enjoy unparalleled community amenities just steps from your front door, including 12 sparkling swimming pools, 11 hot tubs, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a community clubhouse, and scenic walking paths winding through fountains and desert landscaping. The location is unbeatable: walking distance to the historic La Quinta Resort & Club for world-class dining, golf, and spa amenities, and just minutes from the charming boutiques and eateries of Old Town La Quinta. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the proximity to premier hiking trails like the Cove to Lake Trail, while festival-goers and investors will appreciate being a short drive from the Empire Polo Grounds (home to Coachella & Stagecoach). World-class shopping on El Paseo in Palm Desert is also just minutes away. California Vacation Villas serves as both the listing broker and the dedicated property/leasing management company for this unit. We are pleased to provide full, verifiable rental income history for this property upon request. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of paradise!
