Welcome to The Adobe Hacienda, a private 1.5-acre gated estate in the heart of Rancho Mirage, offering unmatched character, artistry, and tranquility. Designed by renowned architect Jim McIntosh, this 8,990 sq ft custom-built compound features 2 spacious bedrooms, a library, grand kitchen, multiple living areas, 2 dining areas, and 3.5 bathrooms in the main home. Three detached casitas/studios—each with their own living quarters—offer ideal spaces for guests, artists, or a private retreat.
Crafted with 2-foot-thick rammed-earth walls and red wine-pigment-stained floors, this estate blends strength and sustainability with beauty. Imported design features include stained glass from Amsterdam, hand-forged ironwork from London's Barclays Bank, and sinks and doors from England's Cotswolds. A powder room ceiling made of peacock feathers and hand-painted details throughout elevate every space with whimsy and soul.
Lush courtyards, romantic balconies, a saltwater lagoon-style pool, bird aviary, and custom storybook-inspired garden walls invite outdoor living, while panoramic mountain views surround you. The Adobe Hacienda is a soulful fusion of European elegance and desert serenity—an architectural gem unlike any other.
