About this property
There is simply no other residence in Legacy Villas positioned quite like this one. This rare top-floor 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence enjoys sweeping, unobstructed 180-degree views of the Santa Rosa Mountains, a beautiful nearby fountain, and a peaceful setting well removed from the front gate. Two private balconies provide a front-row seat to spectacular desert sunrises, changing mountain colors, and the dramatic beauty of the surrounding landscape throughout the day. Designer furnished and offering approximately 1,706 square feet, the residence features 2 primary suites and an exceptionally flexible lock-off floor plan. Separate exterior entrances for the lock-off suites allow the property to be enjoyed or rented as a 1, 2, or full 3-bedroom residence, offering unusual flexibility for both personal use and rental income. Importantly, Legacy Villas is exempt from La Quinta’s citywide ban on new General short-term vacation rental permits, subject to City permitting and applicable requirements. An experienced local management company already managing several residences within the community is also available upon request. Built in 2007, Legacy Villas is a gated resort community offering 13 pools and spas, lap pools, a clubhouse, fitness center, barbecue areas, fountains, hammock gardens, outdoor fireplaces and a café. The community is adjacent to the La Quinta Resort & Club and minutes from golf, tennis, pickleball, hiking, dining and Old Town La Quinta.

This is not a complete 30-day market report, historical inventory trend, appreciation measure, or sold-price analysis.
Payment calculator
Explore a fixed-rate loan scenario. The price comes from this listing; a 20% down payment and 30-year term are starting assumptions, not requirements. Enter your own interest rate—not APR—and estimated costs.
Illustration only—not a rate quote, preapproval, lending offer or affordability determination. Assumes equal monthly payments on a fully amortizing fixed-rate loan; no adjustable rates, interest-only periods or balloon payments. Excludes closing costs, utilities, maintenance, special assessments and other unentered costs. Actual payments and escrow can differ. Review a Loan Estimate with your lender.
