51489 Villa (Avenida)
DPR 523L (09/2013)
Identifier: CRM TECH 1885-124 Date Constructed: 1951
UTM Zone: 11S, 564467 mE; 3726010 mN
Neighborhood: The Cove
Tract: Santa Carmelita Unit No 14; Recorded June 30, 1935, MB 18/83
Owner and Address: Josefina Holguin; PO Box 13963, Palm Desert CA 92255
Updated Description: The 51489 Avenida Villa residence was constructed in 1951 in the La Quinta Cove neighborhood. The one-
story single-family residence was constructed in the Tract Ranch style with a rectangular plan. The residence has a side-gable roof
with wide, open eaves. The exterior is clad in stucco and stone masonry veneer. The residence has an asymmetrical facade with an
attached garage. The residence has an open veranda spanning the width of the front elevation. At the front elevation there are two
sets of three fixed windows. Since the previous survey, the window trim has been painted white. The front porch beams have been
replaced with simple, narrow beams. There does not appear to have been any significant alterations to the property besides changes
to the windows and the addition of the stone veneer.
Updated Significance: A prior survey evaluated the property as status code 6Z - found ineligible for NRHP, CRHR, and Local
Register designation. The current survey found that the dwelling is associated with the theme of Residential Development (1934-
1970s), but it does not possess individual documented significance in relation to this theme. While the dwelling is located within the
proposed La Quinta Cove Historic District, it is a non-contributor due to its architectural style and date of construction.
The dwelling has not been found individually eligible under NRHP/CRHR/Local Criterion A/1/B, as it has not been associated with
significant events or patterns of events in local, regional, state, or national history; not individually eligible under Criterion B/2/B, as it
has not been identified as having an association with an important person; not individually eligible under Criterion C/3/C, as it does
not embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction; and not individually eligible under Criterion
D/4/D, as further study of the dwelling would not appear to yield information which could be considered important in local, regional,
state, or national history. Additionally, the property was not found to be individually eligible under Local Register Criterion A, as it
was not found to exemplify a special element of the City of La Quinta. As the dwelling has not been substantially altered, this
dwelling maintains integrity from the historic period.
