About This Home
The Victor & Georges Dessert House is a landmark estate in Spokane’s historic Rockwood neighborhood—privately sited on 1.32 acres with sweeping 270-degree views. Built in 1936, this Spanish Eclectic masterpiece by architect G.A. Pehrson is listed on both the National and Spokane Registers of Historic Places. With over 7,500 sq ft, the home features four bedrooms, five bathrooms, three kitchens, a sun room with wet bar, wine cellar, and two private decks. Recent upgrades include a whole-house generator, on-demand water heater, and pool renovations. A resort-style tiled gunite pool—with a hand-laid rose mosaic at its center—anchors the grounds, alongside a full outdoor kitchen, fireplace, cabana, and gazebo. A showcase of masterful design and enduring craftsmanship, this estate stands as one of Spokane’s most architecturally significant homes.
