Property Description

Tremendous Price Adjustment - Perched high in the La Quinta Cove on a quiet, elevated street, this Santa Fe-style home offers exceptional privacy, great curb appeal, and immediate access to the desert lifestyle. Set on a very private west-facing lot with mountain views from both the front and rear yards, the property is surrounded by a secure 5-foot wall and framed by mature landscaping, including five palm trees and producing grapefruit, orange, and lemon trees, all enhanced by landscape lighting and irrigation. From the moment you arrive, the home's curb appeal stands out, while inside, authentic restored Mexican Saltillo tile flows throughout the home and continues seamlessly into the front and rear patios, creating a warm indoor-outdoor connection. The open and unique floorplan with 10-foot ceilings is ideal for entertaining, complemented by upgraded lighting and classic Santa Fe Southwestern character. The renovated kitchen features refaced cabinetry, quartz countertops, and serviced appliances. Both bathrooms have been completely renovated and feature artisan hand-painted sinks, with a beautifully tiled walk-in shower in the primary suite. Outdoor living is elevated by a pergola-covered Saltillo rear patio, perfect for relaxing or entertaining while enjoying the surrounding mountain views. Just minutes from hiking and biking trails, this home offers effortless access to the Cove's outdoor recreation while maintaining a peaceful residential setting. Thoughtful upgrades include a fully improved HVAC system for enhanced year-round comfort, a new insulated garage door, and a roof coated and sealed with a white cooling membrane. Private, quiet, and ideally located high in the Cove, this home blends timeless Santa Fe style, modern upgrades, and the active La Quinta lifestyle buyers are seeking.
