Property Description

Luxury Live Auction! Bidding to start from $2,995,000! Welcome to 70380 Desert Cove Avenue, a true masterpiece nestled in the heart of Rancho Mirage. This extraordinary estate spans 1.5 walled and gated acres, offering an unparalleled private sanctuary in the desert. Beyond the gates, a grand driveway leads past a serene lagoon-style pool with an island centerpiece, guiding you to the main residence. Complementing the home are three distinct additional living spaces: a two-story studio, a sprawling loft, and a charming gatehouse. Meticulously landscaped grounds showcase verdant lawns, tranquil courtyards, romantic balconies, and an expansive patio complete with a fireplace and built-in BBQ perfect for seamless indoor-outdoor living and sophisticated entertaining. With approximately 8,990 square feet of combined living space, this estate offers five luxurious bedrooms and seven-and-a-half baths, ensuring comfort and privacy for all. Expansive public spaces provide the ideal backdrop for hosting grand gatherings, enjoying gourmet meals, or relishing daily life in remarkable style. Infused with historic charm, the estate boasts imported elements from Europe, including vibrant stained-glass windows from Amsterdam. Architectural highlights include skylights, castle-like winding staircases, and exquisite hand-painted, leather, tin-panel, and vaulted open-beam ceilings that imbue every room with character. Designed by JMA Architects and built in 2003, the home is a testament to enduring craftsmanship, featuring 2-foot-thick rammed-earth walls, 2' x 2' rebar-reinforced construction, and artistically colored floors imbued with natural red wine pigments. Among its many unique features are seven fireplaces adorned with basalt stone mantles, doors and sinks sourced from England's picturesque Cotswolds region, and intricately designed ironwork originally commissioned for London's Barclays Bank. This exceptional estate is more than a home, it's an experience, offering timeless elegance and unmatched privacy in one of the desert's most coveted locations.
