Property Description

Discover the magic of old California at this extraordinary 1930s Spanish Casita, one of only 60 original homes built in the Historic La Quinta Cove. Nestled on a prime corner lot with breathtaking unobstructed mountain views, this rare desert treasure perfectly marries authentic period charm & modern luxury with no expense spared. Step through the gates into your private courtyard oasis, where flourishing citrus trees add charm to the enclosed front patio. This intimate space captures the perfect morning sun to take in the dramatic mountain backdrop. The heart of this casita is the beautifully remodeled kitchen, featuring premium Bertazzoni induction range, Viking refrigerator/freezer, & KitchenAid dishwasher. The fully furnished turnkey home creates a seamless transition from indoor to outdoor living through dramatic double glass French doors that open wide to blur the lines between the remodeled interior & your private backyard sanctuary, where a saltwater pool, built-in Santa Maria grill, & plenty of space for entertaining await. The covered lounge area provides the perfect retreat for enjoying your private slice of desert paradise. The living room showcases the home's original character with its historic fireplace, while beautiful saltillo tiles flow throughout the home. Indi
