Equestrian corner site for sale, Coachella.

84045 Avenue 52, Coachella

Equestrian corner site for sale, Coachella:  84045 Avenue 52., Coachella, CA.  $2,350,000.  Looking for a small, manageable sized farm that could be a fantastic equestrian site?  Then this could be the one.  7.8 acres, flat and located on a corner parcel in Coachella, only a short 15 minutes to the showgrounds and a bit less to the Eldorado polo club.  The farm has direct access through a wide electronic gate from Avenue 52.  Plenty of room for direct entry with a large rig full of horses!  If you are looking for an equestrian opportunity for the season, give me a call for a tour at 760-285-3578.

The home on the farm is approx. 2400 sf and was remodeled about 7 years ago.  It has a front and rear porch, fenced yard and is located on the Northwest corner of the property.  3 bedrooms/2 bathrooms, it is on septic and well water as most of the farms here in the Coachella Valley are.  The great news is that there is gas and electric to site and city water is right there so if in the future you wanted to switch to City water, it wouldn’t be a long haul to do it.  Currently, the farm shares a domestic well with the farm next door, and that would carry over for a year after close.  CVWD ag water to the farm for irrigation and inexpensive water for the farm and horses.

There are approx. 100 date palms that come with the farm.  The seller is very willing to either remove them, or re-locate them in case the new owner has a plan for landscape and wants them moved to accommodate that.  This corner parcel is part of Leja Farms, a date production  facility.  It is offered separately.

7.8 acre corner farm in Coachella, CA. $2,350,000

There is plenty of room to add a barn and turnout paddocks as the parcel is just under 8 acres.  Fenced and flat, just needs an equestrian to plan it out, and get rolling for the 2024 season and beyond.

 

As for future development??  This particular parcel is zoned Commercial, so if a buyer wanted to develop it in the future, say build a hotel or an event site, it is already zoned.  Great location, great opportunity, equestrians take note..lovely place to have a horse facility in Coachella!

August real estate round up

Indoor/outdoor living in the beautiful Coachella Valley.

August real estate round up.  Here we are nearing the end of the summer, so it’s time to slow down and do a real estate recap.  It’s been a steady summer of sales, whether it’s vacant land, equestrian properties or residential.  Inventory remains low in all price points, and average Days on the market is sitting at 36 days, where it was 80 days in August of 2020.  If you are looking to buy or sell in the Coachella Valley, give Kim Kelly, a local realtor, a call at 760-285-3578.

There are all kinds of statistics, and remember that we have 9 desert cities, so the median of the valley doesn’t mean a ton, except that when you compare the stats year to year, it does translate.  These stats are from the MLS.

Average list price:  $785,115 which is a 15% increase from last year.

Average sale price:  $681,418 an increase of 25% from last year.

Number of closed units in all price points has dropped dramatically from 2020, but probably due to reduced inventory.  The price points in the desert that continue to beat last years numbers are the pricier ones.  $1,9-2 million sales are up 166%.  $4.5-4.7 sales numbers are up 600% and 5 mil and over is up 114%!!

Take a tour of this incredible 10 acre estate in an incredible location.  Just a bike ride from the festival grounds, about a 5 minute drive from Old Town La Quinta, across the street from The Madison Club.  It’s a wow!  $9,500,000.

What to do in the Coachella Valley heat!

A favorite thing to do in the heat of course is to swim!!

What to do in the Coachella Valley heat?  It’s HOT here in the desert right now.  Key word being “desert”, so that shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone.  As a local Realtor, my summers remain busy showing property, but there is still lots of time in the heat.  First off, get up Early; I mean really early!  It’s gorgeous at 4-5 a.m., and since you need to be in the shade or A/C by 11, that gives you 5 hours or so to get some stuff done!!  There are lots of fun and interesting things to do in the summer here in the Coachella Valley.

One of the favorite things to do in the coachella valley heat, is of course, to find a swimming pool and SWIM!  We have plenty of public pools that have lap swimming, and also open swimming, if you don’t have your own.  Save the gym for the heat of the day, and use the morning hours to hit one of the many hiking trails, BUT, do NOT go hiking if there are heat advisories.  And for heavens sake, leave your dog at home.  We humans need to be smart about our limitations and those of our pets.

Horse people are still riding early mornings, or early evenings.  Bikers continue to ride bikes, even in the desert heat, as we have amazing biking paths throughout the desert cities, but again…go BEFORE the extreme heat.  Head up the hill to Idyllwyld for the day, hit the antique stores in Joshua Tree, take the time to stroll through the museum in Palm Springs or La Quinta.  And did I mention the golf?  So great in the summer because there are discounts at all the courses.  I hit more golf balls in the summer than the entire season!

And of course you can always go looking at real estate!

Polo Update for 2020 summer

Polo Season ended early, and the summer season has begun!

Polo Update for 2020 summer.  As with every other aspect of our world, the Polo world has been turned on it’s head by this Virus.  The Polo season ended early this year, it got shut down in Mid March.  Doesn’t look like the summer season is going to be normal either, but there is going to be polo activity at various clubs, just without witnesses..I mean crowds!

Polo Update for Summer 2020:  So what’re the various polo clubs doing to deal with the Virus?  The USPA has sent out a directive suspending all USPA tournaments until May 15.

Santa Barbara Polo Club:  The summer schedule is currently delayed until July.  I know there are players at the club right now, and there have been practice games played at the surrounding private clubs.  I’m told there will be games, that everyone is wearing masks and keeping their distance from each other, and there will not be spectators coming to the games.

Aspen Polo Club, Carbondale:  Summer schedule usually begins early June, and they are tentatively hoping they can stick to it.

Polo pretty much everywhere has been pushed back to a later start if at all.  I would guess that with the Virus still active, they’ll continue to monitor State directives.  Private polo clubs will play, maybe with just 3 on a side..but the public will not be coming due to social distancing.  For any of you polo players, or land investors, there are some cherry parcels available for sale in the Coachella Valley.  It’s going to turn into a buyers market..so there will be deals to be had here in the Valley.  Land in this video is available for approx. $50-$75,000/acre.
