About This Home

As of January 2025

A rare gem in BIGHORN! First time on the market, this charming 'Santa Barbara' style cottage home is perched high above the Mountains Course 3rd fairway and provides stunning, unobstructed mountain and down-valley views. A design that harkens to a European lifestyle, where most time is spent outside, offering trellis-covered porticos, large pool and spa, and outdoor BBQ area with bar seating. Natural granite rock outcroppings have been integrated and artistically blended with lush grass, mature trees and flower gardens. The unique design of the home includes a main residence with great room, kitchen, laundry, powder room and one bedroom suite. The detached guest house includes three bedroom suites and laundry facility. High ceilings accented with reclaimed wood beams, hand-scraped hardwood flooring mixed with Saltillo tile accent areas for indoor outdoor flow. The great room includes the dining area and family room with large fireplace and doors to the porticos. Open kitchen with built-in banquette, island and morning bar seating. Master suite is cozy with private bath and access directly out to patio, gardens, pool and spa. Guest house includes three bedroom suites, of which one is currently furnished as an office, and includes a morning bar. Lovely as is, or ready for thoughtful enhancements, this is a special property tucked in amongst Mountain Estate homes that are some of the finest in the Coachella Valley. Offered furnished. Artwork may be purchased separately.
