About this home

Transitional California desert living at its absolute finest. Situated in the prestigious, gated Ventanas at Rancho La Quinta, this impeccably maintained and upgraded Seville plan represents the benchmark for resort-style comfort. The signature ''H'' layout is designed to capture optimal light and picturesque mountain views throughout the day - morning sun and southern vistas from the private gated front courtyard with a soothing trickling fountain, and afternoon light with northwest views from the entertainer's backyard oasis. Outdoors, indulge in a saltwater pool featuring a raised spa and sheer descent water feature, an expansive covered patio complete with an outdoor fireplace, and a custom cooking island with a 36'' built-in grill, separate power burner, and generous prep/storage space. Inside, the home delivers exceptional designer finishes throughout, including refaced cabinetry, custom slab countertops, and high-end Thermador appliances. The thoughtful 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom configuration features superb bedroom separation. One bedroom offers a custom built-in partner desk perfect for dual home offices, while the guest wing can be closed off to create a private, self-contained en-suite retreat. Every bathroom and shower has been meticulously updated. Low HOA dues include 24-hour guard-gated/roving security, high-speed internet/cable, front yard landscaping, and the opportunity to purchase a sports membership to the newly renovated Rancho La Quinta Country Club offering tennis, pickleball, fitness and more. Discover why the Ventanas is one of the best kept secrets in La Quinta!

About Rancho la

Quinta

Rancho la Quinta, located between Washington Street and Jefferson Street, is a gated and golf-oriented La Quinta neighborhood with mountain backdrops and palm-lined fairways. The scene concentrates around the Rancho La Quinta Clubhouse, where the entry drive, practice greens, and patio dining set a polished, resort-like rhythm. Architecture leans Mediterranean with stucco walls, arched details, and courtyards that frame desert light. The landscape reads as manicured greens against the Santa Rosa Mountains, with wide streets and curated plantings. Nearby, Old Town La Quinta’s La Quinta Brewing Co. and La Quinta Museum add local flavor beyond the gates. The La Quinta Civic Center Campus and its park spaces bring a civic, walkable counterpoint to the private-club setting.
