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.
