The Coachella Valley. What comes to mind? Music festivals? Golf? How about unparalleled indoor-outdoor living? It's all here. And it's also home to the Domus Atticus estate, an 8.48-acre luxury property that redefines "extraordinary." When we saw what this estate had to offer, we knew Land id™ was the perfect tool to showcase everything.
This isn't just another desert home. This sprawling compound recently shattered local real estate records, selling for a cool $16 million. That's the largest residential transaction of 2025 in the Coachella Valley and the biggest sale ever recorded in Rancho Mirage.
We got a firsthand look at this unique estate, thanks to Scott Palermo, Sheri Davis, and James Sanak of Harcourts Desert Homes.
The Land id map tells the story. This estate isn't just a house; it's a modern escape. The residence sits at 10,344-square-feet with 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms complete with everything you’d expend in a luxury compound. A few amenities of note include dual master suites, a lounge, a wine cellar, and a theater. It's luxury defined.
The design seamlessly blends the interior with the stunning desert landscape with every wall on the west side of the property opening to the outdoors, providing an unmatched indoor-outdoor flow.

The grounds are really what elevate this property into a class of its own with unmatched Resort-style amenities. Contained within the 8.48 acres are a private 3-hole executive golf course, a well-fed lake with an island, in-ground tennis and pickleball courts, a resort-style pool and spa, a 13+ tree fruit orchard, and an equestrian area for four horses. It's like owning your own private resort.

Scott Palermo of Harcourts Desert Homes put it best: "This landmark sale demonstrates the enduring appeal of truly unique properties in the Coachella Valley." The estate's private well, a rarity in Rancho Mirage, supplies all irrigation needs. In the desert, it doesn’t get better than that!
Harcourts Desert Homes used their distinct luxury non-distressed auction platform to attract global buyers. The result? The $16 million sale price eclipsed the $11 million starting bid. A clear win, and a new caretaker of this amazing property!
