Property Description

First time on the market in over 40 years! This vintage 1947 Cove casita compound sits on 4 square lots encompassing 3 separate structures with unobstructed views of the Santa Rosa mountains. The 3 bedroom 2 bath main house retains much of its original charm with original Spanish saltillo tiles, original doors and vintage corner windows. with an expanded, upgraded kitchen, newly remodeled secondary bath and expansive covered patio space, the main home spills out to the lawn with its large, in-ground pool recently re-worked with pebble finish and Baja tanning shelf. The detached, 600 square-foot casita is adorned with antique stained-glass salvaged from a church in PA where the previous owner, acclaimed local architect Charles L Martin, was married. Mr. Martin added the over-sized casita with wood-vaulted ceilings, cozy living room with fireplace and kitchenette. The openness of the exterior space is enhanced by buried electrical poles (no wires!), high privacy walls that have been freshly patched & painted, a putting green, gardens, and a circular drive through an electronic gate at the rear of the lot that greets the car hobby enthusiast with a 1,300+ sq/ft 4-car garage. Adjacent, there is extra RV space. Glass doors around the property lead to multiple outdoor patio spaces, a carport services the kitchen & walk-in pantry. Recently upgrades include the roof, A/C, electrical panel, casita bathroom remodel and freshly painted exterior and interior incorporating La Quinta Resort colors of Cottage White and La Quinta Hotel Blue. Private, expansive, flexible, spanning street-to-street with the charm of Old La Quinta this Spanish Colonial Revival is truly a one-of-kind. For over 4 decades this labor of love has been cared for, constantly updated, and meticulously manicured leaving it for the next great steward to begin relaxing among the Naval Orange, Pink & White Grapefruit, Mexican lime and mango trees while basking in the rare, authentic charm of historical La Qui
