Set on the premier lot in the community's only cul-de-sac, this exceptional newer construction home offers a rare combination of privacy, mountain views, and a spectacular resort-style backyard designed for the ultimate desert lifestyle. Offered furnished and move-in ready, the home is perfectly positioned in the heart of La Quinta just minutes from championship golf, world-class dining, and the charm of Old Town La Quinta, with convenient access to the renowned festivals and events of the Coachella Valley. Designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, disappearing sliding glass doors open the main living spaces directly to the backyard, creating a natural flow between the interior and the stunning outdoor retreat. The oversized lot allowed the owners to create a true resort-style setting with a dramatic pool and spa, lush landscaping, multiple lounge areas, and a covered outdoor pavilion complete with bar seating and TV, perfect for entertaining, hosting game day gatherings, or relaxing while enjoying the desert evenings and mountain views.

The space includes a living room, kitchenette, bedroom, and full bath, providing an ideal setup for guests, extended family, or a private office. Inside the main home, the kitchen was upgraded with a Thermador range and larger refrigerator, designer pendant lighting, and a custom built bar area for entertaining. Multiple TVs throughout and a built-in SONOS sound system provide integrated audio, and the living room features a gas fireplace that adds warmth and ambiance. Additional upgrades completed after purchase include a custom iron and glass front entry door, raised ceilings that enhance natural light and openness, custom primary closet system, automatic shades in the primary bedroom and bath, upgraded ceiling fans throughout, additional cabinetry in the laundry and garage entry, whole-home water softener and purification system, garage mini-split climate control, security system, and a transferable termite warranty.
