    What's special

    Showstopper! South-facing Santa Rosa Mountain views, unforgettable sunsets and a prime position along the 4th fairway of The Citrus Club's Pete Dye course set the stage for this ultra-private executive home. Outdoor living takes full advantage with a saltwater pool and spa, a covered patio running the entire length of the home, retractable awning and generous space for lounging and dining. A gated front approach leads to an expansive courtyard with fountain and on to the formal entry. Custom built by Rob Capetz of Sun Vista Development, the home offers a floor plan designed for desert living with excellent separation of bedrooms and a strong connection to the outdoors. The living room with wet bar flows to the adjacent formal dining room, enhanced by a temperature-controlled wine closet added in 2025. The family room and kitchen with breakfast area feature handsome built-ins and glass overlooking the covered patio and pool. Just outside, the saltwater pool and spa feature a Baja shelf, swim-up bar seating and a series of waterfalls, while a built-in barbecue with counter seating completes the outdoor entertaining space. A powder bath is conveniently positioned for guests. The ensuite primary retreat occupies the west wing with a fireplace, separate tub and shower, two large walk-in closets and two water closets. On the opposite side of the home and tucked behind double doors, Guest Bedroom 2 features a large walk-in closet and direct patio access from both the bedroom and bath. Guest Bedroom 3 is currently enjoyed as a den with an ensuite bath, built-in desk area, Murphy bed and French doors opening to the courtyard. The large detached casita serves as Guest Bedroom 4, where impressive ceiling height adds to the sense of space, complemented by an ensuite bath and kitchenette area. Additional highlights include newer HVAC systems, new brick pavers throughout the patio areas in 2025, and an air-conditioned three-car garage with built-in cabinetry. And then there is the magic of The Citrus Club, where the celebrated course, citrus-lined streets and Santa Rosa Mountains create a distinctive sense of place. Gated and private with a low HOA fee, this is La Quinta desert living at its best.
