{"product_id":"oasis-by-crestwood-communities-la-quinta","title":"Oasis by CrestWood Communities, La Quinta","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA small neighborhood of modern pool homes, with the desert still close enough to shape the view.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOasis by CrestWood Communities brings a compact collection of contemporary, single-story homes to south La Quinta. Its defining qualities are easy to recognize: low horizontal rooflines, private outdoor living areas, and a neighborhood small enough to understand in a single aerial view. The planned community contains just 24 detached homes at the northwest corner of Avenue 60 and Madison Street.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat scale is part of the appeal. The setting feels residential and contained, while the surrounding landscape is much larger: mountain slopes, open desert parcels, nearby golf landscapes, and the broad streets of southern La Quinta. Oasis makes the most sense as a home-centered way to enjoy this part of the valley, with the pool, covered patio, and everyday gathering spaces built into the individual residence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOasis at a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommunity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24 planned single-family homes by CrestWood Communities.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Northwest corner of Avenue 60 and Madison Street, La Quinta; the builder lists 80-900 Avenue 60 as the community address.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHomes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Three single-story floor plans, approximately 2,458–2,721 square feet, with two or three bedrooms and 2.5–3.5 bathrooms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutdoor living:\u003c\/strong\u003e Private pools and spas are advertised as included, alongside covered outdoor living space; the builder describes homesites of approximately 8,000 square feet or more.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePhotography:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original aerial photographs by Mark Miller, captured November 2, 2026, showing completed-looking homes alongside active construction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA small community in a big landscape\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are two useful ways to look at Oasis. Up close, it is a neighborhood of geometric homes, enclosed yards, newly planted landscaping, and short internal streets. Pull back, and the larger setting becomes the story. The mountains occupy far more of the horizon than the houses do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMark’s wider photograph shows that relationship clearly. The community sits near the meeting of developed La Quinta and a more open desert landscape. The closer photographs reveal how tightly the architecture is organized within that setting: repeated horizontal forms, pale walls, dark window openings, and individual outdoor spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe contrast gives Oasis a distinct visual identity. Its contemporary architecture reads clearly against the rugged terrain. At the same time, an aerial panorama should not be confused with the view from every living room or backyard. Interior homesites, perimeter homesites, walls, neighboring roofs, and orientation create different experiences within this small footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere Oasis fits within La Quinta\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOasis occupies the Avenue 60 and Madison Street corner in the southern part of the city. This is a different setting from La Quinta’s Highway 111 shopping corridor or the older street grid around Old Town and the Cove. The emphasis here is on residential neighborhoods, mountain scenery, and the spaces between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor everyday orientation, Madison is the north–south reference and Avenue 60 is the east–west reference. Shopping, restaurants, and appointments are part of a driving routine. \u003ca href=\"\/products\/old-town-la-quinta\"\u003eOld Town La Quinta\u003c\/a\u003e adds the city’s village atmosphere, while \u003ca href=\"\/products\/lake-cauhilla\"\u003eLake Cahuilla Park\u003c\/a\u003e and the \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/nature\/la-quinta-cove-hiking-trails-guide\"\u003eLa Quinta Cove hiking guide\u003c\/a\u003e provide context for nearby outdoor outings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neighborhood’s compact size makes the individual location especially important. A home along a boundary can relate differently to the road and surrounding land than one looking into the internal street. Compare the actual patio, bedroom windows, and approach to the garage—not only the street address or floor-plan name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eArchitecture built around indoor and outdoor space\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe November photographs show a consistent contemporary language: flat parapet rooflines, simple rectangular volumes, pale exterior finishes, and dark accents. Roof-mounted solar panels are visible on multiple homes. The overall effect is restrained, with the mountain setting providing much of the visual drama.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside, the builder describes open living areas, generous glazing, and sliding-door connections to covered patios. Published plan descriptions advertise ceilings in the 10–12-foot range, although heights and treatments should be checked room by room on the selected plan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe covered patio matters as much as the pool. It creates an intermediate space between the house and the open yard—a place for dining, shade, and watching the light change. Its usefulness depends on exposure, depth, and how the furniture fits. The strongest comparison between two Oasis homes may come from standing in those outdoor spaces at the same time of day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe three floor plans\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plans are close enough in size that total square footage does not tell the whole story. The more meaningful difference is how each home allocates space among bedrooms, flexible rooms, and the main living area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVilla One — approximately 2,458 square feet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVilla One pairs three bedrooms with three full bathrooms and a powder room. It is the smallest of the three published plans, but retains the three-bedroom arrangement. That makes it a useful starting point for comparing guest accommodation against overall house size. The builder’s individual plan page lists a three-car garage, a covered outdoor area, and a private pool and spa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVilla Two — approximately 2,626 square feet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVilla Two has two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a powder room, and a separate lounge or flexible living space. The distinction is substantial: more square footage does not necessarily mean more bedrooms. This plan puts greater emphasis on spaces that can serve everyday life beyond sleeping accommodation. The individual plan page lists a three-car garage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVilla Three — approximately 2,721 square feet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVilla Three is the largest published plan, with three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a powder room, and office or flex space. It is the natural comparison for someone considering Villa One who also wants a separate work or hobby area. The builder’s plan information is inconsistent about garage capacity, so the selected homesite’s drawings and physical configuration are the appropriate reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlan comparison note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Areas are approximate. Garage layouts, options, finishes, and included features should be confirmed for the particular home. A room described as a lounge, office, or flex room should not automatically be counted as an additional bedroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe private-pool lifestyle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOasis places the main outdoor amenity at home. The builder advertises an included private pool and spa for each residence, making the yard central to the community’s identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is a particular kind of convenience: the water, seating, and outdoor dining space are immediately accessible from the house. It also makes the details of each yard worth studying. Pool placement affects the remaining usable space; equipment location can affect sound; and walls, neighboring windows, and sun exposure shape the sense of privacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrivate pools also carry their own service, utility, and repair responsibilities. Those costs should be considered separately from association dues. Nearby golf courses and private communities have their own access arrangements; proximity alone does not establish membership privileges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat the November 2026 photographs show\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese photographs document a community in transition. Some homes have established exterior finishes and landscaping, while other areas contain equipment, work vehicles, and unfinished ground. They are a dated record of the neighborhood’s appearance, not a representation that every homesite is finished or available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wider view also records open land around the development. Open land contributes to the current outlook, but it is not proof of permanent open space. For a perimeter home, the adjacent parcel’s approved use and the home’s actual sightlines matter more than the impression of empty desert in an aerial photograph.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring an in-person visit, the most revealing stops are the particular backyard, the nearest road edge, and any remaining construction area. Together they explain how that home fits within the larger scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOwnership details worth resolving for the selected home\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA small gated neighborhood can have a different cost structure from a large amenity community. Obtain the current association budget and the selected property’s assessment information, including what the association maintains and what remains the owner’s responsibility. A verified association fee and rental policy are not stated on this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a new home, the final specification sheet should identify included finishes, pool and spa equipment, landscaping, and any lot premium or options. For a home with solar panels, confirm the system’s ownership and any agreement or payment obligation. These are property-level questions; the visible presence of panels does not answer them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurrent prices and available homes change during a sales release. This guide focuses on the enduring differences between the plans, homesites, and location rather than treating a temporary advertised price as the defining feature of Oasis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho is likely to appreciate Oasis?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOasis deserves consideration when the priorities are contemporary architecture, single-story living, a private pool, and a small residential setting. Its strongest appeal is the combination: a manageable neighborhood footprint with substantial individual homes and a dramatic desert backdrop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe choice is most compelling when the house and yard themselves provide the desired daily experience. Buyers seeking an extensive on-site club program should compare the actual included amenities elsewhere with the more private, home-centered proposition here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor broader context, explore \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/real-estate\/la-quinta-ca-home-buying-study-guide\"\u003eLa Quinta’s home-buying guide\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/real-estate\/la-quinta-real-estate-agent-mark-miller\"\u003ework with Mark Miller in La Quinta\u003c\/a\u003e to compare the plans and homesites against other local options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOasis questions, answered\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhere is Oasis by CrestWood Communities?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the northwest corner of Avenue 60 and Madison Street in south La Quinta.
