Villa Merion at PGA West | Grand Tuscan Estate

Experience nearly 6,000 sqft of Tuscan-inspired estate living inside the prestigious PGA West private community at Villa Merion, perfectly positioned on the 13th hole of the Jack Nicklaus Private Course. Rich in character and Old World charm, the home opens to a resort-style backyard featuring a swim-up bar with in-pool seating, dual spas, and two natural gas fire pits set against sweeping fairway views—you may never want to leave.

Merion Villa captures the romance of Old World Tuscany with soaring vaulted wood-beam ceilings, rich natural finishes, and timeless architectural detail throughout. The main residence offers 4 spacious bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, plus an additional powder room. Layered living spaces include a grand great room, a separate sitting salon for intimate conversation, and a dedicated bar area perfect for evening cocktails. The detached casita features 2 private bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, its own living room, and a bar-style kitchen — ideal for guests seeking additional privacy. Every bedroom includes a TV, and the fully stocked chef’s kitchen, expansive laundry room, and multiple French doors and sliders create effortless indoor-outdoor flow.

Outdoors, the home transforms into a private country club retreat. Positioned on a premier corner lot along the 13th hole of the Jack Nicklaus Private Course, the backyard showcases sweeping fairway views and resort-caliber amenities. A grand pool with a swim-up bar and in-water stools connects seamlessly to the BBQ island with natural gas grill. Two separate spas, a natural gas fire pit, a second outdoor fireplace with lounge seating, and sun loungers surrounding the water create an atmosphere of refined desert luxury — equally suited for tranquil mornings or fire-lit evenings under the stars.
