Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1995, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready, reflecting its consistent Adobe Santa Fe style. The kitchen features good quality hardwood cabinets and granite countertops, and a newer refrigerator, but the overall aesthetic, including the Tecate tile flooring, appears dated. Bathrooms are clean and functional with authentic Spanish tile and fixtures that are consistent with the original build era or an older renovation, rather than recent updates. While functional, the property shows signs of being outdated in terms of current styles and would benefit from cosmetic updates to align with modern aesthetics, fitting the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Accessibility: Situated on an elevated corner lot in the coveted La Quinta Cove, offering easy access to scenic walking trails and downtown La Quinta's shops and restaurants.
Proven Rental Income & Investment Potential: The property boasts a successful rental history with verifiable income, making it an attractive investment opportunity.
Exceptional Privacy & Views: A walled and gated private retreat providing unmatched privacy and sweeping mountain and palm tree-top vistas from both inside and out.
Turnkey & Furnished Offering: Offered fully furnished with modern appliances (newer refrigerator, new washer/dryer), facilitating a seamless move-in or immediate rental operation.
Designed for Desert Living: Features vaulted ceilings, an open layout, a private pool courtyard, and Tecate tile floors, all optimized for comfort and efficiency in the desert climate.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1696, other record living area = 1470. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 4.
Specific Architectural Style: The Adobe Santa Fe-style with authentic Spanish tile may not align with all buyer preferences, potentially limiting the market appeal.
Age-Related Updates: Built in 1995, some elements like refinished Tecate tile floors and a painted wood-burning fireplace might be perceived as dated by buyers seeking ultra-modern aesthetics.
Limited Lot Size: The 4,792 sqft lot is relatively modest, which could be a consideration for buyers desiring more expansive outdoor space or future expansion possibilities.
