Inside, the home opens to soaring vaulted ceilings, travertine floors, and a bright great room filled with natural light. The main living space invites everyone to gather with an oversized sectional, accent seating, a 70” Smart TV, and a cozy gas fireplace for relaxed evenings together.



The adjacent dining area seats up to fourteen guests, creating the perfect setting for shared meals, celebrations, or private chef dinners. Additional seating at the pub table and kitchen island makes it easy for the group to spread out while still staying connected.



The chef’s kitchen blends rustic character with modern functionality, featuring granite counters, dual ovens, premium appliances, and a large prep island with seating. A walk-in pantry provides extra storage and convenience for longer stays.



For entertainment, the home features a private Saloon Lounge designed for fun and friendly competition. Guests can enjoy a red-felt pool table, shuffleboard, darts, and arcade games—creating the perfect late-night hangout space.



Sleeping accommodations are thoughtfully divided between two private wings, allowing guests to enjoy both connection and privacy.



The West Wing offers three inviting guest suites with rustic charm. One king suite includes courtyard access, while a queen suite opens to a private patio.

These rooms share a well-appointed bathroom and also enjoy access to a unique outdoor stone shower that captures the spirit of desert living.



Across the home, the East Wing hosts the expansive primary suite, featuring a king bed, sitting area with fireplace, private patio access overlooking the mountains, and a spa-style bathroom with soaking tub, tiled shower, and large walk-in closet.

The outdoor living spaces include a fire table lounge with a mounted 70” TV, a built-in BBQ island for outdoor dining, and a rustic stone picnic table perfect for group meals.



The heated pool and spa invite guests to cool off during the day or relax under the desert sky at night.



Additional outdoor amenities include a half basketball court, bocce ball area, scenic walking paths, and the outdoor stone shower, creating a resort-style backyard designed for both relaxation and recreation.

Mark P.

Disliked: Cleanliness
This home was in complete disrepair, like no one had been in the place for weeks. The water did not work for several hours so we had to use pool water to flush. No drinking water in the desert. Dishwasher is broken, dryer hose disconnected, shower not working, electric flickering, window treatment fell and nearly hit one of the kids. The advertisement for the property said that the pool was heated - it wasn’t heated. We couldn’t use the pool. And the list goes on. I don’t expect perfection but you should be embarrassed to represent this property.
