About This Home

As of February 2022

Recently updated by prolific Palm Springs designer, Christopher Kennedy, this exquisite Thunderbird Terrace home boasts the contemporary California desert lifestyle at its best. Enter the front courtyard with lush desert flora then through a ''wall of glass'' into to the expansive living/dining area. Natural stone flooring gives a nod to the mid-century vibe amplified by Mr. Kennedy's keen eye for premium finishes and materials. The living area effortlessly spills out through more floor-to-ceiling glass onto a covered loggia ideal for outdoor entertaining. You can't miss the back yard-centerpiece; a sizeable south-facing pool boasting mountain views, beautifully manicured lawn, and foliage. Perched near the secluded lake is a standalone covered cabana. Two bedrooms are ''ensuite'' at opposite ends of the house. The main suite, with fireplace, sports a large sitting area/nook looking over the pool and mountains. Currently used as a media room, there is a large third bedroom in the main house. The detached guest house is stunning with sitting area, kitchenette and spacious bathroom. With a few of these homes positioned on the famed Thunderbird Country Club's golf course, Thunderbird Terrace is guard-gate secured and meticulously maintained. And yes, the fables are true. Back in 1951 Thunderbird Country Club was the desert's first 18-hole championship course. Furthermore, the Ford Thunderbird got its name there and the very first golf cart was invented at the club.
