The very pinnacle of midcentury style, a desert retreat created by a renowned architect for a movie star and his cover-girl wife in 1964, there is simply no other home like The Dillman House. Situated on a coveted lot high up in sought-after, privacy-gated Thunderbird Heights, no other midcentury house of this integrity exists today, one that reflects such a golden moment in Hollywood history.The minimalist, L shaped design perfectly maintains its architecturally significant origins, has qualified for Mills Act designation and preserves its legacy for generations to come. Seemingly endless walls of glass flawlessly integrate outdoor living areas into the indoors, deep overhangs and use of natural materials; Italian marble pavers outdoors blend seamlessly into the polished indoor marble. Uninterrupted desert and mountain views from almost every room are the icing on the cake.The current owners have preserved and enhanced every aspect of Bradford Dillman and Suzy Parker’s desert escape, maintaining architect Christer Barlund’s vision while accommodating today’s desire for energy efficiency (34 owned solar panels). Complete privacy is ensured by unique design, and effortless entertaining is assured via the sunken conversation pit, expansive bar and terrarium garden.Commanding a prime, hillside lot in one of the desert’s pre-eminent neighborhoods, the residences of Thunderbird Heights have been frequented by every president from Eisenhower to Obama.
