Property Description
A “Palmer & Krisel” Original. Nestled in the historic and iconic Racquet Club Estates, this Mid-Century stunner designed by Palmer & Krisel and built by Alexander Construction Co. perfectly captures the innovative spirit of desert modernism. This neighborhood is a true reminder of the importance of design, famous for its five distinct rooflines and architectural pedigree highlighted by open floor plans, atriums, and breezeways. Inside, the signature post-and-beam construction is flooded with California sunshine via breathtaking walls of glass and strategically placed clerestory windows that frame the incredible San Jacinto mountain views. While retaining its 1959 soul, this residence has been meticulously updated for the 21st century to blend vintage charm with modern luxury. The unique, restored floating iron and tile fireplace serves as a stunning focal point for cool desert nights, complemented by glossy tile floors. The kitchen features Caesarstone counters, custom cabinetry, and sleek stainless steel appliances. Even the bathrooms have been thoughtfully coordinated with modern mosaic accent tiles that feel authentically Palm Springs. Practical updates like OWNED solar, an EV charger in the garage, updated plumbing, and dual-pane windows ensure this classic home functions with contemporary efficiency. Designed for the quintessential indoor-outdoor living experience, the spacious south-facing backyard is a private resort and the ultimate Palm Springs lifestyle.
