Professionally Designed Resort-Style Backyard | Nearly Half-Acre | 4 En Suite Bedrooms | Gated Desert River Estates Few homes offer an outdoor living experience like this. Located behind the gates of Desert River Estates, this beautifully maintained luxury home offers approximately 3,468 square feet with four en-suite bedrooms, a dedicated office, and nearly one-half acre of exceptional privacy. Recently enhanced with a spectacular custom backyard this property delivers a resort-style lifestyle that would be extraordinarily expensive to recreate today. Designed and built by a professional pool builder as his own personal showcase, the custom pool and spa create an unforgettable outdoor experience featuring multiple waterfalls, fire features, tanning shelves, bubblers, a swim-in-place system, and a dedicated heat-pump cooling system that helps maintain comfortable water temperatures during the warmer summer months. Multiple outdoor entertaining spaces, a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, putting green, mature date palms and fruit trees, raised garden beds, and a large gated side yard with automatic electric gate access and 220-volt electrical service complete this exceptional outdoor environment. Inside, soaring ceilings and expansive windows fill the home with natural light while showcasing beautiful views of the backyard from many of the main living areas. The spacious great room flows seamlessly into the island kitchen, creating an inviting setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers excellent bedroom separation, with the private primary suite enjoying direct access to the backyard while three additional en suite guest bedrooms provide comfort and privacy for family and guests. Desert River Estates is one of the Coachella Valley's hidden gems, offering gated privacy, low HOA dues, beautifully maintained surroundings, and a convenient location between La Quinta and Indio. Residents enjoy easy access to championship golf, shopping, dining, world-class entertainment, and the nearby Empire Polo Grounds, home to the internationally recognized Coachella and Stagecoach music festivals.
