Throughout, architectural details honor the era's design while blending seamlessly with thoughtful enhancements.Outdoors, the property unfolds like a private resort with a new pergola and extended patio featuring curated landscaping that have transformed the grounds into a showcase with lush lawns, multiple olive trees along with date palms, and cacti that surround the home, creating both privacy and beauty. Multiple terraces invite relaxation and privacy, overlooking the new travertine pool deck, pool, and refurbished tennis court that anchors the estate's recreational offerings, making it ideal for gatherings and events beneath the desert sky. Featuring 2 Street entrances, an oversized motor court for 12+ cars, and fully private grounds.
