About this property
The Crest: Mid-Century Couples Retreat- Pool & Mountain Views - 2 Beds #066151
Welcome to The Crest: A Mid-Century Mountain Garden Getaway. This is more than just a home. It’s your HAPPY place.
Just a 2 hour drive from Los Angeles, this 2 bedroom 2 bath mid-century oasis is centrally located near the historic Point Happy area of La Quinta.
Originally built in 1965, this home is situated on a large corner lot and provides over 1600 sq ft of functional living space. The home still boasts some of its original mid-century character and has withstood the test of time.
Looking for a get away? What better place than The Crest! This little paradise is located in a beautiful and quiet palm tree lined neighborhood with stunning dramatic views of the Santa Rosa Mountains.
Many of our neighbors have lived in the community a very long time. Just take a slow drive down our main street or take a walk around the neighborhood and you’ll see why. You are in another world.
The home is lusciously landscaped with exotic varieties of desert plants and mature trees and the oasis-like pool area invites a sense of relaxation and peace.
Take a nap, read a book or enjoy the views from your tree-hanging hammock or have a cup of coffee in your peaceful breakfast nook.
The home has a very bright and open layout. The custom floral double entry doors that were imported from South America are stunning and unique. The home is beautifully appointed with bamboo wood flooring throughout. Inside the living area, you will notice the tasteful and inviting mid-century eco-modern design and mango wood furnishings that are popular in today’s living.
The home is located close to the intersection of Hwy 111 near Point Happy, and is considered by some, to be the western gateway to La Quinta.
Our small, quiet, Highland Palms community consists of less than 100 homes that were built in the early 60’s and 70’s. The location also holds a lot of historical significance, with ties to the Cahuilla Indians, The Bradshaw Trails, The Point Happy Ranch and the famous DuPont Estate just to name a few.
The best part about the neighborhood is its location. You won't find a better one! It provides the perfect balance of peace and quiet while also being centrally located to everything! It's all at your fingertips. You are walking and biking distance to great restaurants, theatres, shopping and are 1.5 miles away from the Indian Wells Tennis Gardens. You are also within short driving distance to world class Golfing, Hiking Trails, Casinos and the Empire Polo Grounds- home to the Coachella and Stagecoach Festivals.
