About this property
Seller financing available on agreeable terms. Newly refreshed inside and out, this contemporary Mediterranean residence is gracefully situated on over half an acre within Lions Gate Estates, an exclusive gated enclave of custom homes in La Quinta known for its estate-sized homesites and flexibility for expanded garage configurations, including the potential for additional vehicle storage or an RV garage. A recent exterior transformation introduces a sophisticated soft white palette, desert contemporary landscaping, and architectural lighting that elevate the home's presence while framing panoramic mountain views and creating a resort-caliber setting from sun-filled afternoons to evenings beneath the stars. Beyond the private gates, the reimagined courtyard offers a striking sense of arrival, anchored by a sculptural contemporary fountain, mature olive trees, illuminated pathways, and layered plantings that lend warmth and refinement to the dramatic stone-clad entry. Refreshed interiors blend scale, comfort, and timeless design. Custom built-ins enhance the formal living and dining rooms, while the inviting great room, complete with a fireplace and wet bar, creates an effortless setting for entertaining. A temperature-controlled wine cellar and chef's kitchen featuring granite slab countertops, premium appliances, and generous gathering space further underscore the home's entertaining appeal. Designed to balance architectural elegance with everyday livability, the residence unfolds across four bedroom suites and four-and-a-half baths, including a private detached casita ideal for guests. The primary suite serves as a true retreat, complete with its own fireplace, dual walk-in closets, a soaking tub, and an adjoining exercise room. At the heart of the grounds, a Pebble Tec saltwater pool and spa, complemented by an outdoor misting system, set the tone for relaxed desert living. Covered patios, an outdoor fireplace, built-in BBQ, automated awnings, and curated lighting create an atmosphere equally suited to intimate evenings and grand-scale entertaining. Additional amenities include a sauna and an oversized air-conditioned three-car garage, with the estate-sized homesite offering future flexibility consistent with the community's custom-home character. Offered furnished per inventory, this exceptional residence presents a rare opportunity to enjoy refined desert living within one of La Quinta's most distinctive gated neighborhoods.
