Mediterranean estate harmoniously blends timeless architectural sophistication with subtle contemporary flair. From the moment you enter, you're greeted by soaring exposed-beam ceilings, dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows, graceful archways, and wide gallery-style hallways that evoke a grand sense of space and light. Multiple fireplaces, refined finishes, and impeccable attention to detail lend an air of understated luxury throughout. The updated gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream—featuring a large center island with prep sink, an impressive walk-in pantry, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances. Its open-concept design flows seamlessly into the family room, offering a natural gathering space that opens directly to the patio and pool—ideal for effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining. The primary retreat is a serene sanctuary with its own fireplace, vaulted beam ceilings, and a spa-inspired ensuite boasting a deep soaking tub, glass-enclosed shower, and expansive walk-in closets. The additional bedrooms and baths are equally generous and versatile—one currently serving as a game room or home office. Step outside to your private desert oasis, where newly updated, low-maintenance landscaping complements the home's natural desert surroundings. Custom flagstone decking, a sparkling pool, built-in BBQ, and multiple lounging and dining areas create the perfect backdrop for entertaining or quiet relaxation—all enhanced by the soothing sound of a cascading rock waterfall and breathtaking mountain vistas. A spacious laundry room and garage accommodating multiple vehicles—including RV storage—complete this extraordinary home. A true Desert Gem, this Thunderbird Terrace residence offers the perfect balance of elegance, comfort, and effortless desert living—an exceptional opportunity in one of the Coachella Valley's most sought-after communities.
