70854 Fairway Drive, Rancho Mirage, CA 92270 - Einstein Realty Real Estate

$3,500,000

This exceptional estate, designed by architectural icon William F. Cody (with original blueprints available) and built by Thunderbird developer Johnny Dawson, is located on one of the best lots in Thunderbird Estates, offering sweeping views of the 9th fairway at Thunderbird Country Club. With nearly 4,000 sq. ft. of living… Read More space, the home features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a large living room, dining area, and an air-conditioned 3-car garage. The remodeled chef’s kitchen is a standout, featuring a large “waterfall” island, custom cabinetry, and premium Wolf/Sub-Zero appliances. The kitchen opens to a spacious courtyard with a brand-new 40-foot saltwater pool/spa, outdoor fireplace, and plenty of space—all with stunning mountain views. In 1999, special HOA permission was granted to build the 16’ high entrance foyer with an oversized skylight, adding grandeur to the home. The kitchen includes a 48” Sub-Zero side-by-side refrigerator/freezer, 48” Wolf dual fuel range with 6-burner gas cooktop, charbroiler, and 30” & 18” ovens. Additional features include a 48” Wolf range hood, Hansgrohe water pot-filler, built-in Wolf 1200-watt microwave, Wolf steam oven, Bosch dishwasher (new 2024), and a dual-temperature wine refrigerator. Custom cabinetry extends to the ceiling, and the island is crafted from blue recycled glass by Vetrazzo. The kitchen also has a stainless steel salad sink, white quartz countertops, a 30” x 17” custom quartz sink, and cobalt-blue glass subway tile backsplash. Each of the 3 bedrooms is en suite. The primary suite features a separate office, luxurious bathroom, two walk-in closets with custom cabinetry, and an additional 7’ mirror-doored closet. The guest casita has a separate entrance for added privacy. Additional features include a high-capacity LG washer and dryer, three A/C zones (two newer), and an air-conditioned 3-car garage with epoxy floors and workshop cabinets. The newer hot water heater (2022) includes a “hot water return line” for instant hot water. Leased solar panels (56 panels, 3 inverters), a newer roof (2021), and new exterior paint (2024) add value. In 2023, $200,000 was spent upgrading the pool, spa, and courtyard area. The 40 ft. pool, spa, lighting, and water features are controlled via an easy-to-use app. Located in the prestigious Thunderbird Estates in Rancho Mirage, this home blends historic charm, modern amenities, and breathtaking views, making it one of the desert's most desirable properties.
