Both residences are offered together as one property. Designed by Hollywood colorist and filmmaker Edo Brizio, the property reflects a cinematic approach to desert living. The Motherhouse design pairs oversized architectural glazing with a sculptural, aerodynamic roofline and solid metal fascia. Custom cabinetry, microcement kitchen and bathroom countertops, textured interior plaster and integrated architectural lighting bring warmth and depth to the contemporary design. Two symmetrical primary suites anchor the Motherhouse, each designed with a custom walk-in closet, two-person whirlpool tub and dedicated projection system - individual retreats combining spa-inspired relaxation with a private film-screening experience. In the completed design, every primary bedroom across both residences opens onto its respective pool area. The completed vision includes two private heated swimming pools, one for each home; an in-ground spa at the Motherhouse and an above-ground spa at the Dollhouse; three indoor whirlpool tubs; a sauna; a pickleball court; two fire pits with built-in concrete seating; and a two-car garage.

Make one residence your personal home and explore rental use of the other, subject to applicable approvals and restrictions, or enjoy the entire property as a private desert retreat with independent accommodations for family and guests. The Motherhouse is under construction. Unfinished features and renderings reflect proposed completed conditions, not current conditions. Completion scope, included improvements and delivery timing are subject to the purchase agreement. Buyer to verify square footage, acreage, approved room counts, permits and intended uses.
