This turnkey, architecturally significant estate is Rancho Mirage living at its finest. This 4 bed/5 bath 4200 SF gem, located in a small private gated community, awaits a new owner who enjoys entertaining, yet also craves a zen space to unwind and retreat from the vigors of the world. The impeccably curated interior space, designed by Hodgson Design Associates (based in Vancouver BC), mirrors the serenity that is captured in the outdoor spaces. Several notable features include: neutral custom millwork that enhances yet is seamlessly integrated into the design of each room; a rare Bocci chandelier that descends from the soaring ceiling to illuminate the dining area; an expansive custom-made sofa in the family room; a well-appointed gym (with full bathroom) that includes a Precor elliptical machine, free weights, and a workout bench; and motorized Lutron blinds which are paired with other window treatments. The chef’s kitchen boasts top-of-the-line appliances from Bosch, Miele, and Thermador, while the living room bar includes a built-in Miele espresso maker, Thermador wine refrigerator, Scotsman ice maker, and Fischer & Paykel dishwasher. A wall of Fleetwood doors leads you to the expansive patio with an outdoor dining and entertaining collection of furniture from the Richard Shultz 1966 collection. Misters, fans, and ceiling heaters abound, which keep the patio and pool area at the optimal temperature depending on the climate. Beyond the patio lies a saltwater infinity pool and spa surrounded by picturesque and panoramic mountain views. The spacious primary suite boasts pool and mountain views, a seating area, large custom walk-in closet with vanity, and a resort-like bathroom. The bathroom door leads to a private gated garden with a luxurious outdoor shower and additional entrance to the pool. Also located inside the main house is an office and an en-suite guest room. A private en-suite casita with walk-in closet is situated off the pool area. Other unique features of this home include an abundant fruit orchard, built-in BBQ, fire pit, outdoor pool shower, walk-in butler pantry, and a large grassy backyard.
