Property Description
Welcome to a show-stopping estate in the heart of Thunderbird Heights that defines luxury desert living. Expertly built and beautifully designed, this unforgettable 9,265 SQ FT compound sits on approx. 1.2 acres of pristine, meticulously landscaped grounds. The main residence features 2 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, complemented by a separate 2BD/2BA stand-alone casita for ultimate privacy. From the moment you arrive, the property makes a statement: a circular driveway, fountains, desert gardens, and a dramatic porte-cochre entrance set the tone. Through the double etched-glass doors, grand-scale interiors unfold with soaring ceilings, warm natural materials, and a seamless blend of sophistication and comfort.Every bedroom opens to a private patio, and every detail is thoughtfully executed, from the four-car air-conditioned garage with stretch-limo capacity and epoxy floors, to multiple covered patios, misters, and expansive entertaining areas including a full outdoor kitchen, cabana, bar, and an additional 3/4 bath. The interiors are elegant and expansive, offering a formal living room with fireplace and mahogany coffered ceilings, a custom sunken wet bar, formal dining room with floor-to-ceiling windows, wine closet, family/media room, library, hidden back office, and art studio. The chef's kitchen is exceptional, with double appliances, custom cabinetry, and a full butler's pantry. The detached casita is ideal for guests, featuring its own living room, kitchenette, and two en-suite bedrooms. The oversized primary suite is a true retreat with a sitting area, fireplace, spa access, and dual his-and-hers bathrooms complete with steam shower, jetted tub, multiple walk-in closets, and a private gym or massage space.Outdoors, the property transforms into a private desert oasis with a saltwater pool, waterfalls, two spas, sculpture gardens, and sweeping mountain views. Security cameras cover all three gated entrances, and the home also offers owned solar. A celebrated estate within Rancho Mirage, this property once hosted the "Opening Night" of the historic Thunderbird Country Club during its major renovation with a sit-down dinner for 300 showcasing its unparalleled capacity to entertain. Enjoy private tunnel access to Thunderbird Country Club, the first private golf club in the Coachella Valley, located just moments away. Elegant, iconic, and truly one-of-a-kind this is a home that stays with you.
