Peek at desert home that Obama's rumored to be buying

By Jennifer Karmon

Fanned by the Los Angeles Times' very plugged-in Hot Property columnist and real estate reporter Lauren Beale, rumors have flared that President Obama and his family have bought a home in the California desert.

Beale's sources say Obama is in escrow on a 3-acre property in Rancho Mirage's Thunderbird Heights, an exclusive gated community once home to Frank Sinatra, Bob Hope and Bing Crosby. It has a 20-foot waterfall with a lagoon, a putting green with a sandtrap, and more recreational opportunities. Click here or on a photo for a slideshow of the home.

I love reading the history of the previous owner...

I posted this in the senior group but found it so interesting about Frank Sinatra.
