Description
81890 Thoroughbred Trail | Rancho Santana | South La Quinta
Situated within the sought-after Rancho Santana community, 81890 Thoroughbred Trail presents a compelling opportunity to own a newer-construction, contemporary home in one of La Quinta's most desirable residential settings. Completed in 2021, this later phase is especially prized for its transitional design aesthetic, contemporary features and appliances, wide and well-maintained streets, mature landscaping, and overall sense of space, distinguishing itself from earlier phases of the community. The residence spans 2,912 sq ft and offers 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, featuring an open-concept layout designed for today's buyer and the desert lifestyle. Contemporary finishes, a seamless kitchen-to-living connection, and a spacious primary suite create a home that feels current, comfortable, and easy to live in. Each secondary bedroom is en suite, providing privacy and flexibility for family or guests, while the third bedroom offers its own private entrance, ideal for visitors or extended stays. The contrast between clean white kitchen amenities, large-format darker tile flooring, and the fireplace detail adds visual interest and broad décor appeal. Owned Solar is another Asset with underestimated utility and long-term value.
Set on a generous 10,000+ sq ft lot, the spacious backyard offers ample room for relaxed desert poolside living and entertaining, while capturing beautiful westerly San Jacinto Mountain views. Rancho Santana residents enjoy community parks, walking paths, and gathering areas, further enhancing the neighborhood's appeal.
The location is complemented by proximity to many of the desert's finest lifestyle and sporting destinations, including premier private golf clubs, the Indian Wells Tennis Garden, Desert International Horse Park, Thermal Club, Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport, polo grounds, pickleball facilities, and the Coachella and Stagecoach music festival venues. Nearby Old Town La Quinta and the famed La Quinta Resort offer additional options for dining, shopping, and local exploration.
Whether seeking a year-round residence or a seasonal retreat, this home and community appeal to a wide range of buyers. Opportunities to own in this newer phase of Rancho Santana are limited—this is one not to be missed.
