Welcome to the best value in the guard-gated community of Legacy Villas in La Quinta! This upper-level 2-bedroom, 2-bath villa is not only the lowest-priced unit in the development, but also one of the rare properties in La Quinta approved for short-term nightly and weekly rentals--a perfect setup for investors, vacationers, or both. The smart lock-off floor plan features two spacious primary suites, allowing you to use it as a full 2-bedroom villa or split it into two separate 1-bedroom rentals, offering ultimate flexibility and increased income potential. Even more rare: this unit includes a private 1-car garage, a feature not commonly found in the community. Offered furnished, it's ready for your immediate enjoyment or your next guest. This home has a proven rental history with repeat guests, and being located upstairs means no neighbors above you--just peace, privacy, and views. Legacy Villas offers an unmatched resort lifestyle with 12 saltwater pools, 11 spas, 2 lap pools, a fitness center, clubhouse, meeting rooms, a date palm hammock garden, and the onsite Legacy Grille. This is just minutes from the La Quinta Resort & Spa and Old Town La Quinta. Contact us today to schedule your private tour!
