Set against a serene lakeside backdrop with the mountains rising beyond, this inviting Mission Hills residence captures the relaxed beauty of desert living. Vaulted wood plank ceilings and exposed beams bring warmth and architectural character to the interiors, while walls of glass draw the landscape into the home and create an easy connection to the outdoors. The open great room is anchored by a fireplace and flows naturally to the dining area and kitchen, creating a comfortable setting for both everyday living and entertaining. Beyond, a covered terrace extends the living space outdoors, where lake, palm and mountain views provide an ever-changing backdrop for morning coffee, leisurely afternoons and evenings beneath the desert sky. The primary suite is its own private retreat, featuring a second fireplace, direct connection to the outdoor setting and an updated bath with dual vanities and richly detailed finishes. An adjoining office adds flexibility for work, reading or a quiet den. Positioned separately, the guest suite offers privacy with its own bath and outdoor access. Throughout the home, vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light and thoughtful updates complement its distinctive Mission Hills character. A gated entry courtyard adds another layer of privacy, while the community pool is nearby. Located within Mission Hills Country Club, the residence enjoys a setting surrounded by water, mature palms and dramatic mountain scenery, with the club's celebrated golf, tennis, pickleball, fitness and social amenities nearby. Beyond the gates, Rancho Mirage's exceptional dining, shopping, cultural attractions, and entertainment offer an abundance of ways to enjoy the desert lifestyle. The home is situated on lease land, with the land lease extended through 2121.
