Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Resort-Style Amenities: The property is part of the Legacy Villas Resort Community, offering an extensive array of high-end amenities including an 11,000 sq. ft. clubhouse, 12 saltwater pools, 11 spas, a fitness center, seasonal restaurant, and scenic walking trails.
Strong Investment Opportunity: The community is fully authorized for short-term rentals, presenting an excellent opportunity for income generation when the property is not in personal use.
Premium Location & Mountain Views: Located adjacent to the famous La Quinta Resort and Club, a short distance to Old Town La Quinta, and boasts sweeping views of the Santa Rosa Mountains from the private patio.
Luxurious & Upgraded Interior: The townhome features an elegantly upgraded interior, the largest floor plan, high ceilings, multiple fireplaces, and well-appointed primary and guest suites with luxurious bathrooms, and is offered furnished.
Modern & Energy-Efficient Features: Equipped with modern conveniences such as a tankless water heater, an electric car charger in the garage, and benefits from lower energy costs with IID Electric.

Cons

High Monthly Association Fees: The substantial monthly association fee of $965.0 adds significantly to the cost of ownership and could be a deterrent for some buyers.
Townhome Lifestyle Limitations: As a townhome, the property may offer less privacy and private outdoor space compared to a detached single-family home, and involves shared walls.
Potential for Noise/Crowds: Being situated in a resort community with extensive shared amenities and short-term rental authorization, there is a higher likelihood of noise and crowds, particularly during peak seasons.
