Property Description
High atop the gates of Thunderbird Heights, this prominent mid-century modern residence captures the essence of exceptional modernist design. Set on a .62-acre flat corner lot, the home commands sweeping 180-degree views of the valley floor and 360-degree vistas of the surrounding mountains. A resort-style pool and expansive terrace are shaded by a perforated overhang that reflects the character of classic desert architecture. Inside, walls of glass frame uninterrupted views and bathe the interiors in luminous natural light. Guests arrive through a private motor court and carved double doors into a formal entry finished in travertine beneath a softly illuminated tray ceiling. The formal dining room is defined by a signature mid-century screen wall, while a marble-topped bar seating eight anchors the living area with views of the valley and Chocolate Mountains to the north. The kitchen, brightened by floor-to-ceiling glass, opens to a sunlit breakfast area with nearby butler's pantry, utility room, staff entrance, and bath. Two grand ensuite retreats occupy the east wing. The northeast suite features a sitting area with fireplace, direct pool access, an expansive walk-in closet, and marble bath opening to a private breeze block courtyard. The southeast suite offers floor-to-ceiling shelving and cinematic views of the Santa Rosa Mountains rising just beyond the property. Both retreats enjoy walled garden spaces framed in modernist breeze block. A third ensuite guest bedroom, privately positioned at the opposite end of the residence, features its own garden patio and full bath. Completing the home is an oversized, air-conditioned garage with golf cart parking and generous lockable storage. Thunderbird Country Club endures as an icon of desert glamourthe Coachella Valley's first 18-hole golf course, established in 1951, and a magnet for Hollywood legends, U.S. presidents, and tastemakers who helped crown Rancho Mirage the famed Playground of Presidents.
