Description

A stunning blend of modern sophistication and Palm Springs’ architectural heritage, this estate is set in the coveted Movie Colony East, a neighborhood once home to Hollywood icons. Positioned on an expansive corner lot of nearly half an acre, it offers privacy and exclusivity, only attached to two neighboring properties. Located on the same street as Frank Sinatra’s legendary Twin Palms Estate, it embodies a seamless fusion of history, luxury, and contemporary design. A dramatic sunken great room unfolds beneath soaring 15-foot coffered ceilings, anchored by a statement fireplace that enhances the grandeur of the space. Designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, the layout features a formal dining area with lush poolside views, an open chef’s kitchen outfitted with sleek Bertazzoni appliances, a natural gas range, a convection oven, and a breakfast nook perfect for morning rituals. The home offers three elegantly appointed en-suite bedrooms, along with an oversized attached casita that includes its own kitchenette and powder room, providing flexibility for guest accommodations or a private retreat. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, boasting a Finnish dry sauna, walk-in shower, soaking tub, and direct access to the pool, creating an experience of tranquility and indulgence. Step outside into a private oasis where native olive and palm trees, grape vines, and a citrus grove surround the pristine saltwater pool and spa, all set against breathtaking mountain views. Thoughtfully designed pergolas illuminated by bistro-style lighting create an inviting setting for alfresco dining, while a Weber char-broil 5-burner grill ensures effortless outdoor entertaining. Every detail is crafted for comfort and convenience, from the Ecobee smart system with dual-zone climate control to leased solar power for energy efficiency, an EV Level 2 plug for electric vehicle charging, and a spacious two-car garage with additional driveway parking. Ideally located just moments from downtown Palm Springs, golf courses, tennis clubs, museums, galleries, and fine dining, this estate offers both seclusion and accessibility. Beyond its architectural sophistication and luxurious amenities, the home is a study in effortless desert living, where mornings begin in sun-drenched tranquility and evenings unfold beneath a sky ablaze with stars. Whether hosting intimate gatherings by the pool, unwinding in the private sauna, or savoring alfresco meals framed by towering palms and majestic mountain vistas, every space is designed to evoke a sense of balance, beauty, and refinement. Exuding timeless desert luxury, this estate seamlessly blends architectural integrity with contemporary indulgence, offering a retreat that is unmistakably Palm Springs.
