Centered around a spectacular 5,500-SF main residence, framed by panoramic mountain views, a tranquil 2.5-acre private recreation lake, and elite equestrian facilities with a 16-stall barn and thoroughbred racing track. Driven by its own highly productive potable well with exclusive water rights, the compound offers rare, self-sufficient autonomy.The neighborhood is an unmatched global playground of luxury, entertainment, and sport.

This premier location places you minutes from the best golf courses in the world, the high-end shopping and dining of El Paseo, and the desert's most exclusive new wave of elite developments, including the Coral Mountain Surf Club, Soho Desert House Palm Springs, and the ultra-luxury Silver Rock resort.
