Description

This immaculate 3BR/3.5BA home has been lovingly cared for, and it shows! Nestled in La Quinta's highly desirable gated Rancho Santana, on a lush greenbelt with the south mountain views everyone craves, this peaceful setting has convenient access to shopping, dining, golf, and La Quinta's many hiking and biking trails .The beautifully landscaped low-maintenance yard is an entertainer's dream, featuring a sparkling private pool with raised spa, expansive covered patio, and plenty of room for dining and lounging. Step inside to an open, light-filled floor plan designed for effortless living and entertaining. The gourmet kitchen boasts stainless appliances, abundant cabinetry, a spacious island, and a casual dining area that flows seamlessly into the great room complete with cozy fireplace, custom built-in cabinetry, a convenient desk area, and direct access to the backyard paradise. The generous living room with wet bar features a dramatic wall of glass overlooking the pool and mountains, flooding the space with natural light. A dedicated office greets you off the formal entry--perfect for work-from-home flexibility. The luxurious primary suite is a true retreat, offering its own fireplace, oversized walk-in closet, and spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, jetted tub, and separate shower. Additional bedrooms provide excellent versatility. Bedroom 2 is a casita-like retreat with its own 3/4 bath and private door to the outside, while Bedroom 3 includes a full bath with shower over tub. A convenient powder room, laundry room with sink and extra storage, plus an attached 3-car garage with cabinet storage round out this thoughtful floor plan. Rancho Santana has low monthly HOA dues of $230, and offers walking paths, bocce ball, putting green and community park with playground. These south mountain views over a greenbelt don't come on the market often--this is a great house!
