If you're searching for the best La Quinta listings for sale right now, two homes deserve a close look. Both are gated, both have saltwater pools and spas, and both have mountain views. Both are listed by La Quinta Realtor Craig Chorpenning of Desert Sotheby's International Realty.
They also share a seller incentive on financing. One is a 4 bedroom estate on half an acre in Lions Gate Estates, where the seller has indicated financing is available on agreeable terms. The other is a 3 bedroom home built in 2022 in Cantera at Coral Mountain, where the seller has offered to pay for a buyer's rate buydown with an acceptable offer.

57945 S Valley Lane: A 4 Bedroom Lions Gate Estate in La Quinta
57945 S Valley Lane in La Quinta is a contemporary Mediterranean home on a 0.51-acre lot inside Lions Gate Estates. The listing describes the community as a gated enclave of custom homes known for its estate-sized homesites. The home is listed at $2,950,000 and is offered furnished per inventory.
The house was built in 2004 and has been refreshed inside and out. A recent exterior update added a soft white palette, desert contemporary landscaping and architectural lighting. Those changes frame panoramic mountain views. Past the private gates, the courtyard has a sculptural fountain, mature olive trees, lit pathways and a stone-clad entry.
Inside This 4 Bedroom La Quinta Home
The 4,724-square-foot floor plan has four bedroom suites and four and a half baths. One of those suites is a private detached casita, so guests get their own space. Custom built-ins line the formal living and dining rooms. The great room has a fireplace and a wet bar.
Wine collectors will like the temperature-controlled wine cellar. The chef's kitchen has granite slab countertops, premium appliances and room for people to gather. The primary suite has its own fireplace, dual walk-in closets, a soaking tub and an adjoining exercise room.
Outdoor Living at This Lions Gate Home in La Quinta
The backyard centers on a Pebble Tec saltwater pool and spa with an outdoor misting system. Covered patios, an outdoor fireplace, a built-in BBQ and automated awnings round out the space. There's also a sauna, and the oversized three-car garage is air-conditioned.
Room for an RV Garage in Lions Gate Estates, La Quinta
If you need space for a motorhome, a boat or extra cars, this lot is worth a look. According to the listing, Lions Gate Estates allows flexibility for expanded garage configurations, and this homesite has potential for additional vehicle storage or an RV garage.
There's no RV garage on the property today. Confirm your plans with the homeowners association and the City of La Quinta before you count on building one.
Seller Financing on This La Quinta Listing
The listing states that seller financing is available on agreeable terms. Seller financing, also called owner financing, means the seller makes the loan to the buyer in place of a bank, as Rocket Mortgage explains in its owner financing guide.
The terms for this home haven't been published. The rate, down payment and loan length are all open to negotiation with the seller. Talk with Craig and with your own lender or attorney before you write an offer.
58080 Coral View Way: A 3 Bedroom Newer Build in Cantera at Coral Mountain, La Quinta
58080 Coral View Way in La Quinta was built in 2022 and is listed at $950,000. It sits in Cantera at Coral Mountain, a gated community of single-family homes at the foot of Coral Mountain. The community is near PGA West in La Quinta and a short drive to Old Town La Quinta, according to the builder's Cantera community page.
The home has southern mountain views and sits on an oversized 12,632-square-foot lot. That lot holds two separate outdoor living areas, which the listing says adds privacy and flexibility.
Inside This 3 Bedroom La Quinta Home
The 2,179-square-foot home has three bedrooms, two full baths and one half bath. A den could serve as a fourth bedroom, which helps families and frequent hosts. The open floor plan has custom window coverings throughout.
The kitchen has top-of-the-line KitchenAid appliances and an Italian glass tile backsplash. In the primary suite, a custom shower with floor-to-ceiling tile and a frameless glass enclosure gives the room a spa-style finish.
Backyard Pool, Putting Green and Fire Pit in La Quinta
The yard was set up for low maintenance. A private saltwater pool and spa sit next to artificial turf and a putting green, and LED landscape lighting covers the evenings. A natural gas fire pit anchors the second outdoor area, so one side can stay active while the other stays relaxed.
Owned Solar and Efficiency Features in This La Quinta Home
The solar system is owned, not leased. The home also has whole-house water filtration and an air-conditioned garage with its own 2-ton AC unit. The listing points to these features for efficiency, comfort and year-round use.
Seller-Paid Rate Buydown on This La Quinta Listing
The seller is willing to pay for a buyer's rate buydown with an acceptable offer. A buydown uses discount points, paid at closing, to lower your mortgage interest rate.
How much a point lowers the rate isn't fixed. The CFPB says one discount point doesn't lower the rate by a set amount, as this guide to buying down a mortgage rate explains. Ask your lender to price the buydown before you compare offers.
How La Quinta Buyers Can Use These Financing Incentives
Both incentives can lower the cost of buying, but they work in different ways.
- Seller financing on 57945 S Valley Lane: the seller takes the place of a bank, and the price, down payment, interest rate and repayment schedule are agreed between buyer and seller.
- Rate buydown on 58080 Coral View Way: you still get a mortgage from a lender, and the seller's money goes toward discount points that lower your rate.
With either one, get the terms in writing and have your lender or attorney review them before you sign.
Which La Quinta Listing Fits Your Plans?
- Choose 57945 S Valley Lane if you want a larger estate on half an acre, a guest casita, a wine cellar, a sauna, room for an RV garage and a home that comes furnished.
- Choose 58080 Coral View Way if you want a newer home under $1 million with owned solar, a low-maintenance yard, a putting green and space for a fourth bedroom.
Both La Quinta listings are in gated communities, both have saltwater pools and spas, and both have mountain views.
