About this home
Within the gated community of Carmela in La Quinta, this single-level Spanish-inspired residence blends timeless design with thoughtful updates and seamless indoor-outdoor living. Offering 4-bedrooms and 3.5-baths and 3-car garage, the home includes an attached casita that now connects directly to the main house—creating a flexible space ideal for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. A gated courtyard entry leads to a bright, open floor plan with six sets of French doors that fill the home with natural light. The formal living room with soaring ceilings opens to a central courtyard with interlocking pavers and views of the pool and its cascading water features, offering a tranquil retreat for relaxation or entertaining. The kitchen and adjoining family room form a warm, social hub featuring stone countertops, an oversized island with bar seating, stainless steel appliances, and an impressive pantry providing abundant storage. The family room is anchored by a cozy fireplace and lined with numerous windows framing views of the outdoors. The primary suite is a peaceful escape with direct yard access, a spacious walk-in closet with custom built-ins, and a luxurious bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, and separate shower. The outdoor space was completely transformed in 2022 with the addition of a new saltwater pool with both chiller and heater system, complemented by new landscaping, lighting, and irrigation for enhanced privacy. Recent updates elevate the home’s comfort and style, including interior and exterior paint, roof tune-up, new water heater, HALO air purification system, new heat pump, upgraded HVAC components, and a new garage motor and lift. Additional interior enhancements include wide-plank wood flooring in all bedrooms and the family room, crown molding, new lighting and heat reducing blackout drapes. Ceiling fans are found in every bedroom, the family room, and the covered patio. The gas fireplace features new wiring and logs—perfect for cool desert evenings. The low monthly HOA covers your front yard landscape and offers a sports court with playground. Located just minutes from PGA West golf courses, Old Town La Quinta’s dining and boutiques, hiking trails, and world-class tennis, polo, and music events, this exceptional home offers the perfect blend of resort-style living and everyday comfort....
