Shangri La in the Desert. In the 1950s, actor Robert Stack bought this Spanish hacienda for his mother located in the historic & highly coveted Mesa right at the base of the majestic San Jacinto mountains. After a 16-month renovation, this stunning architecturally significant piece of history has been re-imagined as a Modern Moroccan desert gem. In this stunning space, high-end materials (natural stone tile, restored brickwork, hardwood) work in concert with rich layers of texture & pattern. Airy floorpan includes a wing with 3 bedrooms (all w/private en-suites + 1 powder room) that adjoins the public living quarters via a soaring glass-walled gallery. The open-concept greatroom features a kitchen with high-end appliances (Sub Zero fridge/wine fridge, six-burner Thermador range, KitchenAid dishwasher), quartz countertop w/waterfall edge that clads a more than 12-foot island & a wall of doors that lead to a Moroccan-tiled deck. Backyard has outdoor living room & dramatic fireplace
