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. If architectural significance, privacy and security, sumptuous lifestyle and superlative location are your desires, you must see and experience for yourself The Dillman House in illustrious Rancho Mirage.
