Property Description

Desert Club Estates is a charming enclave of custom homes on generous lots, ideally located near the La Quinta Library, beautiful parks, and the shopping and dining of Old Town La Quinta. Tucked away in the heart of the community, this beautifully remodeled compound offers an exceptional sense of privacy, with gated driveway leading to the three car garage and an inviting courtyard entrance creating a secluded retreat. Thoughtfully updated and designed for relaxed desert living, the property combines the character of an established La Quinta neighborhood with the comfort and style of a private resort. The front courtyard is a lovely place to begin the day with morning coffee while enjoying the soothing sound of the fountain. As the afternoon unfolds, the back patio becomes the place to be. The owners have gone all out in creating an exceptional outdoor entertaining space, highlighted by a beautifully remodeled pool and spa, a gazebo with a chef's barbecue, an outdoor dining area and bar counter. A firepit completes the setting, creating the perfect gathering spot for cool desert evenings under the stars. Four speakers can add to the ambience. Inside, a private den/office is conveniently located just off the foyer. The spacious great room is enhanced by high ceilings and French doors that open to the outdoor living areas, creating an easy connection between indoors and out. The remodeled kitchen features high-end cabinetry, a new Cosmo chef's gas cooktop and a new GE Profile refrigerator/freezer, combining an elegant finish with a kitchen designed to be enjoyed. The primary suite is sumptuous and beautifully appointed. A generous walk-in closet features luxury built-ins, while the spacious primary bath is thoughtfully designed to comfortably accommodate both his-and-hers spaces. From peaceful mornings by the courtyard fountain to afternoons around the pool and evenings gathered by the firepit, this private Desert Club Estates compound captures the very best of the La Quinta lifestyle.
