Description

Historic Cove Compound on Rare Oversized Lot | Built 1948

Step into a piece of early La Quinta history. Originally built in 1948, this reimagined desert retreat sits on an oversized lot in the heart of the La Quinta Cove and offers a level of space, privacy, and character rarely found today.

Expanded over time into a true compound-style property, the home blends vintage charm with modern livability across approximately 2,000 square feet. Inside, natural light fills the open living spaces, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow that defines the desert lifestyle.

The expansive lot sets this property apart, offering multiple outdoor living areas, room to entertain, and the kind of privacy today's buyers crave. Whether enjoying quiet mornings with mountain views or hosting under the desert sky, this home delivers a lifestyle experience beyond the typical Cove property.

Located just minutes from hiking and biking trails, Old Town La Quinta, dining, and shopping, this is a rare opportunity to own one of the Cove's earlier homes thoughtfully evolved for modern living.

Ideal as a full-time residence, second home, or legacy investment in one of La Quinta's most iconic neighborhoods.
