Point Happy Estates, a community conveniently located close to the intersection of Highway 111 and Washington St. in La Quinta, may be getting ready to be Revived ! Family Development, a Palm Desert-based real estate development company, has purchased 15 unfinished foreclosed homes and 23 lots here and this resurgence of interest and energy can only be good for the builders and buyers alike.
Point Happy Estates is named after Point Happy, a lovely little little cove area nestled up next to the Santa Rosa Mountains. It gets its name from early settler Norman “Happy” Lundbeck, who tended a small store there. Later on, the property was purchased by philanthropist Chauncey Clarke, who grew the first Deglet Noor dates in California there and also raised purebred horses at his Point Happy Ranch.
When built out, Point Happy Estates will feature 69 semi-custom luxury homes with average lot sizes of 10,500sf – all situated on 22 acres of prime La Quinta real estate with a secluded mountain escape. Many world class amenities are in close proximity, such as adjacent Point Happy shopping center, fine restaurants, Indian Wells Tennis Gardens, Old Town La Quinta, La Quinta Hotel & Resort . . . and much more. Stay tuned as the best kept secret of Point Happy Estates becomes the buzz of the town as its vision comes to fruition.
