Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

Built back in 1953, this gorgeous home retains that sought-after mid-century charm with all the conveniences you'd expect of a modern home. In fact, your hosts are so aware of this home's old-school appeal that they've stored the TV in a closet so you can forget it's there – perfect for those who want to recreate the magic of the good old days. However, the fibre-optic internet and the TV's smart capabilities allow you to stream your favourite series. Situated high up in La Quinta Cove, the home offers outstanding views of the mountains from its well-established desert gardens, with plenty of popular hiking trails close by. Come nightfall, the peaceful residential location provides breathtaking stargazing opportunities. Further afield, the distinct desert ecosystems of Joshua Tree National Park offer fascinating Mars-like landscapes to explore. For manmade wonders, tee off at any of the hundreds of golf courses found throughout the valley, or pay a visit to Palm Springs to marvel at some of Donald Wexler and Richard Neutra's modernist marvels.
