This home is a breathtaking piece of art and love. The Preservation Design Award from the California Preservation Foundation and a 2021 Best Residential Preservation Award from the Southern California Development Forum are just a couple of the accolades this home boasts. Design enthusiasts will adore this glorious space, for its mid-century architecture with hallmark curved roof (thoughtfully built to echo the shape of the San Jacinto Mountains behind it), and for the vintage modernist furnishings. Built in 1955 as a sculptor’s studio, the house was renovated in 2020 and combines those all-important design elements with luxurious touches. Think a private Ofuro soaking tub, personal whiskey and amaro bar, and a Sonos and vintage Bose sound system complete with a curated record collection. The dreamy lounge opens out to the striking garden area thanks to lofty floor-to-ceiling windows. We recommend renting a bike to explore the city, or following the hiking trails on the handy map provided. After a day exploring Palm Springs and the surrounding desert, enjoy an invigorating sleep on sumptuous Frette Italian linens.

About Palm Desert
Is Palm Springs the same as Palm Desert? Is Palm Springs IN Palm Desert? We understand all these palms and deserts can get confusing, but allow us to clarify that Palm Desert IS in fact its own city, and distinct in its own right. That being said, it does offer some of the same fabulously relaxing amenities you’ll find scattered throughout the cities of the Coachella Valley. You know, all...
