Property Description

Step into this historic, single-level home in Rancho Mirage, once owned by legendary actress HEDY LAMARR. Nestled on a sprawling 2/3 acre lot, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom retreat comfortably sleeps 6 and invites abundant natural light through its many windows and French doors, seamlessly blending the outdoors with the indoor living spaces. The property boasts a serene courtyard with a stunning, custom-designed rock sculpture fountain by Roger Hopkins, adding a touch of modern art to the desert oasis. The centerpiece of the outdoor space is a 50-foot pool with a spa, surrounded by breathtaking mountain views from both the front and backyards. The pool features a variety of colorful lighting options, allowing you to set the perfect mood, while the landscape lighting creates a beautiful backdrop throughout the property. At the head of the pool, a striking fire feature adds a touch of elegance and warmth to the ambiance. Gather around the built-in fire pit for cozy evenings, perfect for roasting s'mores under the desert sky. A putting green with chipping areas is perfect for golf enthusiasts, while the spacious layout offers privacy and ample room for entertaining. Inside, you’ll find a full chef’s kitchen featuring a huge island that doubles as an additional eating area and a perfect space to gather and entertain. If you need to catch up on work, there’s a cozy office space available to help you stay productive. Luxurious amenities like a walk-in shower and standalone modern tub create a spa-like experience. The home exudes a clean, comfortable vibe with a modern touch, especially in the backyard, making it the perfect retreat for relaxation and gathering with friends or family. Whether hosting guests or enjoying peaceful solitude, this property offers the ultimate blend of luxury, privacy, and comfort. Owners have seasonal renters that truly enjoy the home. Ideally located, less than 2 miles from the luxurious shops of El Paseo, renowned restaurants, art galleries, and world-class golf. A short drive takes you to the vibrant Coachella Valley, downtown LaQuinta and the Living Desert Zoo. With shopping, dining, and endless hiking trails all within walking distance, this home is perfectly situated for those seeking both relaxation and adventure in the heart of Rancho Mirage. If you are in search of a long term lease, the owners would consider a 12 month option.
