Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Good
TeardownExcellent

Property is move-in ready.

The property underwent a comprehensive 're-imagined and rebuilt' process in 2013, where all major systems—including electrical, plumbing, HVAC, windows, and doors—were replaced. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully updated with high-end finishes, custom millwork, and professional-grade appliances. While the home is in move-in condition with premium Santa Barbara-style aesthetics, the renovation took place approximately 13 years ago, which fits the 'Good' criteria (renovated within 5 to 15 years) rather than the 'Excellent' criteria (renovated within 5 years).

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Prime Golf Course Location

    Situated on the 8th fairway of the prestigious La Quinta Country Club, the property boasts rare waterfront positioning with panoramic mountain and lake views.

  • Comprehensive 2013 Rebuild

  • Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Living

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Reduced Bedroom Capacity

    Despite its 4,100 square feet, the home currently offers only 3 bedrooms as the original casita was converted into storage and an expanded garage.

  • High Carrying Costs

    With an HOA fee of $853 per month and a premium multi-million dollar price point, the ongoing cost of ownership is significant for the area.
