Three additional ensuite guest suites offer private outdoor access. A hidden office/study above the entrance/foyer, oversized powder room, and large laundry room add comfort and function. Outside you will find covered patios, a new pool heater, a separate pool bath with shower, and spectacular views of the Thunderbird golf course, San Jacinto, and San Gorgonio mountains. The estate’s expansive grassy terrace offers the perfect backdrop for sunset cocktail gatherings, large-scale garden parties, or private events under the stars.
