About this property

Beautiful Mid Century Hideaway - featured in New York Times "Desert Cool"

Our Original restored Palmer+Kriesel designed Alexander mid-century sits on 11000 square foot lot on a cul-de-sac and was featured in the New York Times 'Home section' entitled 'Desert Cool' and was a featured home on the 2024 Modernism Week Home Tour. Inside, you'll find classic modern treatments such as Eames tables and chairs, Case Study beds in both bedrooms, mixed with completely renovated bathrooms and kitchen with everything you’ll need. High vaulted ceilings and refinished flat cement flooring throughout with Design-Within-Reach throw rugs and FLOR tiles. The pool and surrounding deck have been completely updated including a new 400BTU pool heater. (The City of Palm Springs ID# 770.)

The Living Room features Hi-Definition DirectTV with movie channels (HBO and SHOWTIME), Apple TV, and a SONOS sound system. The master bedroom also features a wood-burning fireplace. Wall-to-wall sliding glass doors open to a kidney-shaped pool, surrounded by palm and olive trees. There's even a private outdoor lounging/eating covered patio, framed by Frosted resin panels. 2 separate in-ground gas fire pits, one by the pool and living area, and the other by the hot tub, provide some privacy even when together on the property.

The house features iconic pool loungers from Design-Within-Reach and Herman Miller, imported tile from Japan for the pool, a 50” LED Sony, and LG Washer/Dryers. The kitchen has also been updated with KitchenAid appliances, and we feature All-Clad stainless steel pots and pans. The hot tub is a top-of-the-line Hot Spring Spa with Moto-Massage® jets, complemented by a Quartet® jet system, to soothe your neck, shoulders, and back. It's comfortable seating, styled armrests, and SoothingStream® water feature provides maximum relaxation.

As of 2022, the house features a "whole house" Pentair water filtration system delivering bottled-water quality from every tap.

We also feature a new COYOTE outdoor Natural Gas Grill with RapidSear Infrared Burner & Rotisserie.

Both bathrooms feature TOTO sinks and toilets upgraded in 2022.

The 4-ton air conditioner was updated recently and controlled by a Nest Thermostat.

The bedrooms feature Modernica case study bedframes and HUE dimmable lights. The mattresses in both King & Queen bedrooms were updated recently.

THREE LOUNGING AREAS: Additionally, a third seclusive lounging area off the middle bedroom (away from the other areas) by the hot tub features original Balinese wood loungers. Overall - magical and relaxing...

COMPLETE PRIVACY: The house is located on one of the larger lots in the Racquet Club Estates and is completely enclosed and private (backyard, pool, spa, lounging areas).

GOLF + PARK: While 'true' golfer's probably won't want to use the clubs we make available, we do have an old set at the house for your use...in case you want to golf at one of the local public courses for fun.

Just one block away is a large grassy park with trees and benches, etc.

Located about 15 minutes from the airport, and less than five minutes from the center of Palm Springs center of restaurants, shops, and attractions.

In September 2021, the house was presented with a "Plum Guide Travel Award". Only the top 3% of vacation homes in each destination win the Plum Guide Award.

As a bonus, if available, we are happy to offer complementary early check-ins and late check-outs based on occupancy.

SQUEAKY CLEAN: We are here to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable, and we want our guests and team to feel safe. We are taking all the extra precautions as mandated by the city to keep the property Fresh & Clean for everyone - we've thought it through so that you don't have to.

Thanks for looking!

Perfect girls trip for 3 tired moms!
This trip will go down in memory as one of the easiest I've ever done, and Marcel/this home are a major reason for that! From the start, Marcel was easy to communicate with, and was able give us early check in as the place was vacant the night before. Everything about how to use the home is clear and updated, the home is clean, supplies (spices, towels, etc.) plentiful, and the outdoor space is on a cul-de-sac pie lot and is truly spectacular. We asked for the pool to be heated and spent much of our time chatting and floating around on the pool noodles. It's a 10 min uber ride to downtown and the airport. Beds were comfortable, area quiet. I look forward to returning here in the future. Thanks Marcel :)

Fun/clean fab mid century home.
The host was very responsive and gave us insight on Palm Springs history. It was a step back into super skinny pants and pencil point brasseries.

Why they chose this property

Located on a corner lot, our home rests on one of the largest parcels in our neighborhood of restored historical Alexander homes, allowing for two distinct areas to unwind and relax away from others while on the same property. The living area has wall-to-wall glass and sliding doors facing the pool, firepits, and a covered patio.

What makes this property unique

Privacy. The house is tucked in by large palm and olive trees, creating a very lush, private and quiet sanctuary. The house also features a very unique covered sitting area, flanked by resin walls of semi-translucent glass between the pool and kitchen, perfect for eating or relaxing in shade.
