Renowned architect Charles L. Martin’s “Bunker House” has been listed for $2,000,000 by The Hamilton Real Estate Group, a team of agents affiliated with the Palm Desert office of Coldwell Banker Realty. Martin also designed the Rancho Mirage Observatory and two local churches. Located at 73009 Joshua Tree St. in Palm Desert, Calif., the residence has three bedrooms and three bathrooms.
“This property is known as ‘the bunker house’ because of the way it's built into the ground to provide privacy and protection from the afternoon sun,” said Dan Hamilton of The Hamilton Real Estate Group. “In one of Palm Desert's best locations, this home is just a short distance from world-class El Paseo shopping, restaurants and nearby hiking trails.”
Showcasing soaring ceilings, towering custom windows as well as grey granite floors and countertops throughout, the home encompasses a foyer with a built-in bench, formal dining room, family room and bright living room with fireplace. Adjacent to the formal dining room, the kitchen features custom cabinets, original pulls and a new Thermador induction cooktop. With sliding doors to the backyard, the spacious primary bedroom offers a walk-in closet, an ensuite bathroom with double vanities and a spa-like wet room with a large walk-in shower and soaking tub. One bedroom has been converted into an office and home theater with a 100-inch LG projection system.
In addition to a two-car garage and separate RV parking, the approximately half-acre grounds include a backyard oasis with one-of-a-kind sculptures, a citrus grove, sparkling lap pool, spa, an outdoor shower, a built-in BBQ and low-maintenance landscaping. Other highlights include smart home automation like lock-and-leave security and control.
