MidCentury Modern Pool Home in Twin Palms area. "Living Retro" Cover Home - Retr
Welcome to Retro Rendezvous!
South Palm Springs
City ID#002384 TOT Permit #3085
If you’re looking for a mid-century modern experience in sunny Palm Springs, this 1957 Alexander-built home is it. Originally designed by the architectural team of Palmer & Krisel, this post and beam classic was later published on the cover of "Living Retro,” and has been nicely update to retain its 1950's glamour, yet provides all the modern amenities you need for today's lifestyle. Original highlights include soaring exposed tongue and groove ceilings, concrete block fireplace, clerestory windows and globe lighting.
The great room combines a sleek updated kitchen, breakfast bar, large dining table for the whole group, and the living room with fireplace and large HDTV built into the A/V wall cabinet, all looking out through the giant glass sliders to the pool deck. Slide open these doors and enjoy the warm California sunshine and cool evenings around the sparkling blue swimming pool and spa. You’ll find plenty of lounge seating around the pool for entertaining. There is also a barbecue and outdoor shower. The only thing missing is you!
The main house offers two guest bedrooms, each with Queen size beds and 22" flat screen TV's, that share a hall bathroom, plus a huge master suite with private bathroom. This fantastic master suite provides plenty of privacy. The comfortable King size bed is framed by matching bedside tables and lamps. In the other half of the room, a large vintage sofa and coffee table sitting area provides a perfect space for reading or sitting with a cocktail or watching the 43" flat screen TV while your partner gets dressed for a night on the town. The private master bath features a huge walk-in shower with a luxurious double shower head. When it’s time to sleep, pull the grasscloth sliding shades across the full-length sliding doors that lead to the private patio with sitting area and vintage fireplace.
This home is 1626 sq ft with an additional 300 sq ft. casita. The fourth bedroom is a large private poolside casita, with a Queen size bed, flat screen TV and its own private half bathroom (sink and toilet). The outdoor shower is just steps away but is not private. The laundry room is also in the casita, behind a curtain.
With all these amenities, space and 1950’s flare, and an awesome Twin Palms neighborhood location that is walking distance to the Ace Hotel and Koffi, why rent anywhere else?
Enjoy Downtown and Uptown Palm Springs restaurants, bars and shopping without a worry about parking or the drive.No cats are allowed.
COACHELLA MUSIC FESTIVAL: This home is less than a 10 minute drive to the shuttle stops in Palm Springs.
**Note: This home is in a quiet residential neighborhood and has zero tolerance for loud noise. Also, owner keeps car in driveway but there is driveway access. **
