Welcome to this beautiful, spacious, single-level home on a cul-de-sac in the Carmela Community of La Quinta. Enter through the Spanish-style iron gate into a private courtyard where the custom beveled glass front door leads into 2700 + square feet of open living, high ceilings, arched doorways, and ceramic tile floors. The kitchen features a granite island with seating, an efficient butler's pantry, and plumbing to add a second sink and refrigerator. The separate dining area is perfect for entertaining. The French doors in the great room open to the courtyard as well as the backyard oasis, where you can relax in the saltwater pool and spa, or cool off on the covered patio with built-in misting system. The ensuite primary bedroom has access to the patio and features a large walk-in closet, a separate shower and tub, and double sinks. One of the bedrooms, currently used as a bonus room, has subfloor plumbing for an additional bathroom, as well as a wet bar. Unique upgrades in the home include an instant hot water circulation pump, plantation shutters and custom window treatments. The community park has a playground and pickleball court. Carmela is just minutes away from dining and shopping in Old Town La Quinta, PGA West, the Indian Wells Tennis Garden and the Polo Fields, known for festivals and other special events. LOW HOA fees are a PLUS!
