Overview

The exotic 40-acre Merv Griffin Estate is nestled in the heart of La Quinta and steeped with rich history. Designed by noted Los Angeles interior designer Waldo Fernandez, the architecture and interior design showcase a seamless blend of Moroccan elegance with modern California influences. Once owned by the legendary television entertainer and entrepreneur Merv Griffin, this is a rare opportunity to own an iconic residence. Boasting 13 beds and 12 baths, this expansive property is a true compound, featuring 7 distinct structures, the crown jewel of which is the magnificent 5,409-SF main residence. A majestic mountain backdrop frames the estate, providing panoramic vistas of the surrounding landscape, including the tranquil lake and sprawling orchard. Additionally, enjoy equestrian facilities, a pool, and a 6-bay garage. Experience self-sufficiency with a highly productive potable well (water rights owned) that services all water needs across the property.
