The Desert’s most extraordinary estate, Hagadone Residence, on nearly eight acres in Bighorn designed by renowned architect Guy Dreier has hit the market for $49,500,000. International Luxury Ambassador Jade Mills, Beverly Hills’ leading real estate professional affiliated with Coldwell Banker Realty in Beverly Hills, Steve Frankel, a Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Property Specialist affiliated with the Beverly Hills office of Coldwell Banker Realty, and BIGHORN Properties hold the listing. Located at 706 Summit Cove in Palm Desert, Calif., the approximately 32,000-square-foot residence includes a total of seven bedrooms and 12 bathrooms.
“Organically constructed onto a summit hilltop, this resort home that cannot be duplicated surrounded by pools of oscillating water boasts staggering mountain and valley views from every room,” said Mills. “Located in the prestigious Bighorn Golf Club in Palm Desert, this rare estate has no equal and offers a world-class resort lifestyle. Unparalleled in size, scale and design, this is one of the most spectacular estates ever built and in 2009 was named Robb Report’s Ultimate Home of the Year.”
Mirroring the natural terrain, the home was designed with overlapping planes and serpentine walls that form a series of asymmetrical pavilions and retractable walls of glass that create the quintessential indoor/outdoor living experience. Accentuated by a Dale Chihuly sculpture, the focal point of the living room is a massive titanium fireplace and a striking ceiling of undulating wood panels. An aquatic adventure, the large-scale dining room is accessible by an impressive aquarium tunnel comprising two tanks of exotic fish and a rare shark tank. Reminiscent of the finest resorts in the world, the primary suite boasts panoramic views, a patio, private outdoor spa, fireplace as well as dual bathrooms and closets. There is an additional bedroom suite and staff quarters in the main residence. The guest pavilion contains four additional large-scale bedroom suites and lounge areas. Unlike any other, the private office was carved into the rock and sits on a plateau. Outside, the three interlocking sculptural pools offer a one-of-a-kind swimming experience.
“A true masterpiece, this property offers the perfect opportunity to own your own private resort,” said Frankel. “In and of itself, the site is the rarest of the rare, and most beautiful. So much care and science that went into this property, making it an unduplicatable site built into a rock with staggering views.”
