Property summary

Set on one of the most commanding view parcels within the prestigious, guard-gated enclave of Thunderbird Heights, this reimagined Rancho Mirage estate offers a resort-caliber living experience with sweeping mountain, valley, and city-light vistas. Behind crisp contemporary architecture, the property unfolds as a private desert oasis. The grounds have been thoughtfully redesigned to showcase a striking pool and spa with multiple water and fire features, including a sunken conversation lounge that anchors outdoor entertaining. Expansive green spaces, sculptural hardscape, and intentional sight lines create a seamless connection between architecture and landscape ideal for both grand-scale gatherings and intimate everyday living. The approximately 7,516-square-foot main residence is organized around light-filled interiors that flow effortlessly to the outdoors. Arrival is through a dramatic covered loggia featuring a fireplace and tranquil water feature, immediately setting the tone for refined desert living. The chef's kitchen serves as the heart of the home, appointed with a premium appliance suite, prep island, and oversized conversation island designed to engage guests while maintaining exceptional functionality. Adjacent formal and informal dining areas, a game room, and a sophisticated living space with fireplace are all positioned to capture uninterrupted views across the Coachella Valley. The primary suite is a private retreat, offering dual bathrooms, generous walk-in closets, and a dedicated fitness room or secondary office. Two additional en-suite bedrooms are located within the main residence, while a detached two-bedroom guest house complete with its own living area, kitchen, and laundry provides outstanding flexibility for extended family, guests, or staff. Infrastructure and systems have been comprehensively upgraded, including an oversized three-car garage plus golf cart garage housing two Tesla Powerwall batteries supported by a 42-panel owned solar system. The estate also features five newer high-efficiency commercial-grade Trane HVAC units, a recently installed foam roof across all structures (2024), whole-house water filtration, three tankless water heaters, and recently epoxied garage floors. Every element inside and out reflects meticulous care and thoughtful modernization. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a contemporary Thunderbird Heights estate that pairs architectural clarity with resort-style amenities, all set against one of the most iconic backdrops in Rancho Mirage.
