Sanctuary in the Sky: Elegant Mountain Living Above the Coachella Valley - Owner May Consider Lease Option This multi generational home nestled in the exclusive enclave of Pinyon Crest, just 20 minutes from the world-class shopping and dining of El Paseo--''The Rodeo Drive of the Desert''--this custom mountain estate offers a rare fusion of natural beauty, architectural grace, and modern comfort. Set at 4,100 feet in the San Jacinto Mountains, enjoy temperatures 15-20 degrees cooler than the desert floor, crystal-clear air, and a sense of seclusion in a private, gated community featuring its own pure-water system and meticulously maintained roads. Commanding a pristine 2.5-acre lot bordering the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto National Monument, this 2,700+ sq. ft. residence delivers uninterrupted vistas of the Coachella Valley, Little San Bernardino Mountains, and the often snow-capped Mount Santa Rosa. Nearly every room captures the outdoors, and multiple decks extend the living experience to the open sky--where brilliant sunrises and starlit nights under the Milky Way define the rhythm of life. The main home features five bedrooms plus a dedicated office, including private guest quarters, a separate living area and entrance--ideal for hosting or multigenerational living. A gourmet kitchen anchors the home with Cambria quartz counters, premium appliances, and abundant cabinetry. The primary suite is a sanctuary of its own, complete with a generous walk-in closet and serene mountain views. Almost all bedrooms open to decks, seamlessly merging indoor and outdoor living. Outdoors, nature unfolds as art: seven cascading ponds filled with Japanese koi, accented by lotus blooms and water lilies, create a tranquil soundscape. Native pines, palms, and seasonal wildflowers flourish without effort, offering ever-changing splashes of color. Miles of nearby hiking and biking trails begin just steps from your door, inviting daily adventure in a setting where privacy and natural wonder prevail. A rare offering for those seeking elegance, serenity, and the ultimate connection to nature--yet minutes from the vibrance of the desert's most celebrated destinations.
