I’m working with a fun couple from the LA area. They are specifically searching for a GATED community, but don’t want to pay the high HOA’S that go along with living on a golf course! City of choice??? Rancho Mirage, or perhaps Palm Desert, but REALLY hoping for Rancho Mirage. Their 3 favorite Gated, non-golf course Rancho Mirage communities are…
1. Victoria Falls: Beautiful homes ranging from approx. 2600 sf – 5200 sf, with prices from approx. $550,000 – approx. $850,000.HOA of $260/month, and you’re right by Mission Hills Country Club for golf/fitness. There are several tennis courts and basketball courts too.
2. St. Augustine: North Rancho Mirage, newer homes, built around several tennis courts and a 7.5 acre private park. HOA’s are easy at approx. $255/mo. Mediterranean style, large lots, and some with spectacular viewss
3. Mirage Cove: Like Thunderbird Heights, these homes sit on the side of the hill hovering over Hwy 111. Older homes, with that true “Palm Springs feel”, homes range in price from approx. $550,000 – approx. $1.2 million. HOA’s include two tennis courts, heated community pools, and VIEWS! Close to everything, with HOA’s of $430/mo.
