Set high in the dramatic foothills above Rancho Mirage, forty-four Rim Crest presents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most elevated homesites within Mirada Estates, a prestigious guard-gated enclave of luxury estate residences. Positioned on the highest street in the community, the lot enjoys unobstructed panoramic views that sweep across Rancho Mirage and the entire Coachella Valley, extending to the northern mountain ranges and illuminated city lights below. From sunrise to sunset, the setting captures expansive desert skies and a remarkable sense of scale rarely found in the valley. Mirada Estates is uniquely affiliated with the nearby Ritz-Carlton Rancho Mirage, offering residents access to the resort's world-class amenities along with preferred privileges and discounts on dining and spa services. This exceptional connection allows homeowners to enjoy the privacy of a secluded hillside estate while having resort-level services just moments away. This offering is for the vacant lot, with a remarkable architectural concept available separately for purchase. The proposed residence was designed by acclaimed architect Lance O'Donnell, FAIA, of o2 Architecture, whose work continues the region's celebrated legacy of desert modernism. Importantly, the architectural plans have already been approved by both the Mirada Estates Homeowners Association and the City of Rancho Mirage, providing a significant advantage for a future owner ready to begin construction. The conceptual design envisions approximately seven thousand six hundred thirty-three square feet of interior living space, including a three-bedroom main residence with a den and three-and-a-half bathrooms, centered around an expansive great room and seamless indoor-outdoor living oriented toward the valley views. The plans also include a separate two-bedroom guesthouse with two bathrooms, thoughtfully positioned for privacy and featuring its own driveway and dedicated parking area. Parking and access have been carefully considered, with the main residence designed to include a three-car garage plus a dedicated golf cart garage, along with a two-car carport for additional covered parking. A detached fitness pavilion is also incorporated into the design, creating a private wellness retreat integrated into the surrounding desert landscape. Inspired by the modernist tradition of architects such as Albert Frey, E. Stewart Williams, and William F. Cody, the design emphasizes sustainability, orientation, and harmony with the desert environment. The architectural plans for this proposed residence are available for separate purchase, providing buyers with an opportunity to create an extraordinary custom estate on one of the most spectacular view homesites in Rancho Mirage.
