Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 2002, this property is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready, but it falls into the 'fair' category due to its age (24 years) and original features. While the flooring has been updated to modern wood-look planks, the kitchen retains its original oak cabinetry, white tile countertops, and dated white appliances. The home shows regular upkeep but lacks the comprehensive recent renovations required for a higher score.
The property features a private courtyard with a pool and spa, perfectly positioned to capture stunning west-facing mountain views, a highly sought-after feature in La Quinta Cove.
Offered beautifully furnished and move-in ready with all appliances included, this home provides an effortless transition for use as a primary residence or a desert vacation retreat.
The Santa Fe-style design is enhanced by 12-foot ceilings, a gas fireplace, and French doors that create a seamless indoor-outdoor flow, ideal for entertaining and enjoying the desert climate.
