A rare gate-within-a-gate custom mini-estate in Painted Cove, this Ministrelli-built residence pairs exceptional privacy with one of the community's most spectacular outdoor settings. Set on an expansive 18,295 sq ft lot, the home opens to lush, beautifully maintained gardens, a free-flowing saltwater pool, and truly breathtaking southern mountain views that create a dramatic backdrop from the backyard. The 3,834 sq ft Santa Barbara-style residence is equally impressive, with three bedrooms plus a flexible office suite that can function as a fourth bedroom, 3.5 baths, formal living and family rooms, three fireplaces, and a three-car garage. The chef's kitchen features bull-nosed slab granite, a full backsplash, and premium Viking and Bosch appliances, while the thoughtful floor plan balances elegant entertaining spaces with comfortable everyday living. Impeccably maintained and privately positioned within Painted Cove's exclusive 79-home gated enclave in South La Quinta, this is a distinctive desert property where the setting is every bit as remarkable as the home itself just moments from world-class dining, shopping, and championship golf.
