About This Home
As of December 2025Designed by Donald Wexler ~ Meticulously Renovated ~ 10,000+ SqFt Lot ~ 100’ Golf Course Frontage ~ Pool, Spa & Sun Deck ~ 44 Owned Solar Panels ~ Fee Simple Land, No HOA. Welcome to “The Royal Singapore,” one of Wexler’s most unique and celebrated creations—a bold departure from typical mid-century modernism and a playful foray into Polynesian-inspired design. The largest home originally built in Green Fairway Estates—5240 E Lakeside is a sprawling 4-bedroom home with two distinct wings. East Wing: A bright and airy Living Room featuring the signature Alexander Cone fireplace and San Jacinto Mountain views. The open Dining Area flows into a sparkling Kitchen with luxury finishes and expansive golf course views. The oversized 2-car garage, laundry, and large fourth bedroom with direct pool access complete this wing. West Wing: Two guest bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a spacious Media/Family Room with a tranquil reading nook. Also includes the 600 sqft Primary Suite, functioning as a private casita with wet bar + mini-fridge, walk-in closet, spa-inspired bathroom, and sweeping pool and golf course views. Outdoors, the rear fence has been legally extended 15+ feet into the fairway, creating a vast greenbelt to maximize the 10,000+ sqft lot. The pool, spa, and sun deck take full advantage of 100 feet of golf course frontage, with views of the mountains and Hope House as your backdrop. Energy efficiency is ensured with 44 owned solar panels. This is more than a home—it’s a living piece of architectural history, ready for its next steward.
