at the 1925 International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts in Paris — one of the earliest and rarest expressions of the Art Deco movement. Together with curated period furnishings and architectural detailing, the interior stands as a testament to timeless craftsmanship and cultural refinement. The multi-tiered amphitheater is a living sculpture of stone and water: a waterfall of green-veined rock flows from the top terrace to the base, threading through the steps and bringing motion and serenity to the landscape. A temporary stage structure can be installed for private concerts, weddings, and events beneath the stars — a hallmark feature of the property’s current use as The Bird Estate Event Center.

Multiple patios and terraces overlook the Rogue Valley and surrounding hills, offering panoramic views that stretch for miles. An Art Deco speakeasy bar with a grand picture window captures the same vista from indoors, adjoining a ten-seat private movie theater — intimate luxuries designed for both reflection and revelry. Anchoring the recreational wing, an Olympic-sized pool commands the hillside, crowned by a towering golden statue inspired by the Colossus of Rhodes. Rising thirty feet into the air, it holds a fire bowl that ignites on special evenings, its light reflected in the still water below while cypress trees frame the scene like sentinels of a vanished age. It's both sculpture and symbol — a celebration of artistry, ambition, and the human spirit.

The Bird Estate is a cinematic retreat hidden in Oregon’s Rogue Valley, where artistry, architecture, and nature converge. 200+/- acres of rolling hills, streams, and fenced pastures framed by mountain views. It's more than a home; it's a sanctuary of light, stone, and stillness, where privacy and beauty coexist in perfect harmony. The estate is a true equestrian property, featuring two barns, fenced pastures and riding grounds. The main barn includes a tack room with washroom, designed for both functionality and comfort — ideal for those who appreciate the art of horsemanship and refined country living. Five homes are situated across the property, including a beautifully preserved 1860s farmhouse — a rare surviving link to Oregon’s pioneer past. A boutique 2+/-acre vineyard graces the property, with additional acreage ideal for expansion — perfectly suited for a private label or an expanded vineyard estate.

The guest house complex includes its own tennis court, basketball court, and dog kennels, offering privacy, recreation, and comfort for guests, staff, or extended family. At its heart stands a grand Art Deco fountain, inspired by the Mulholland Fountain — a landmark of Old Hollywood that sits at the gateway of Griffith Park in Los Angeles. It serves as a luminous centerpiece, recalling the glamour and optimism of early twentieth-century California design. The same Georgia Bluestone tile that defines the courtyard continues around the pool deck and fountain, creating visual harmony and a sense of timeless refinement throughout the estate. Currently operating as The Bird Estate Event Center, the property’s scale and infrastructure make it ideal for a luxury destination resort, boutique hotel, or private family compound. Its architectural pedigree, flexible layout, and

The residence features custom, hand-honed marble composite blockwork for timeless strength and character. Accenting this, the decorative textile tiles are faithful reproductions of the original Frank Lloyd Wright Ennis House tiles, preserving the integrity and geometry of Wright’s visionary design. Inside, the main home is appointed with museum-quality antiques, including an Egyptian Revival dining set that premiered Visitors are welcomed through a formal courtyard paved in Georgia Bluestone, bordered by manicured hedges and 30-year old wisteria that drapes the colonnade in cascading color each spring. At its center, hand-carved marble statues lend the space an atmosphere of grace and permanence — a setting that feels both cinematic and timeless. A large freshwater pond anchors the landscape, providing both natural beauty and recreation. Across the estate, wildlife roams freely — here, nature is not a backdrop — it’s a companion, living in peaceful rhythm with the estate.
