As the ultimate expression of the world-renowned Rancho Mirage lifestyle, this exceptionally luxurious estate presents a rare opportunity in the intimate guard-gated enclave of Waterford. Crafted in 2001 by Stoker Builders from a design by visionary architect Narendra Patel, the custom showplace focuses on the relationship between an artistically conceived residence and the landscape that it inhabits. Soaring barrel ceilings trimmed in natural wood planks, white limestone and wide-plank wood floors, and unending walls of floor-to-ceiling windows and doors blend harmoniously with natural light and water views. Bold rock walls hint at the region's famous Mid-Century Modern heritage, while contemporary appointments and carefully integrated updates make this a home for today and long into the future. An expansive single-level floorplan extends approximately 7,374 square feet and reveals five ensuite bedrooms-each with outdoor access, and eight baths. The great room takes center stage, with clerestory windows, a fireplace, 18' ceiling and a vast wall of disappearing glass pockets doors opening to the backyard and pool views. A separate wet bar, large formal dining room with patio, office with built-in cabinetry and desk, and a casual family room flow easily, catering to upscale and low-key entertaining. The estate's curvilinear walls lend visual drama, and nearly every room offers direct access or views to the outdoors. Like the home's baths, its kitchen was completely reimagined from the ground up to create a more cohesive flow throughout. Chefs will appreciate a double-waterfall island with prep sink, frameless white cabinetry with hidden hardware, a skylight, quartz countertops with full backsplash, circular breakfast nook and top-tier Thermador appliances. Rivaling nearby resorts, the primary suite welcomes beautiful views into a private realm enriched with a sitting area, patio, barrel ceiling, two opulent baths and dual walk-in closets. Powered by 100 solar panels, this uncompromising residence continues to impress with a Control4 home automation system, patinaed metal roof, custom lighting and a three-car garage. The homesite is one of the community's largest at approximately 31,799 s.f., providing generous room for a resort pool and spa surrounded by a virtual palm oasis, private patios, and a main patio for entertaining, complete with a high-end outdoor kitchen. Available for only the second time in its storied history, this estate can now be yours.
