Resort-style suburban living in Los Compadres
Located 3 miles east of downtown Palm Springs, Los Compadres is a peaceful residential enclave on the south side of the city. Echoing Palm Springs’ iconic architecture and design history, the community features quintessential midcentury modern homes and is surrounded by recreational venues such as golf courses, public parks and private clubs. “The area has a plethora of recreation, and it’s suited for those who want to live an active lifestyle,” says Peter Lavin, who is a Realtor at Links Real Estate with 23 years of experience.
Iconic midcentury ranch-style homes in Los Compadres
The neighborhood landscape features peaceful streets connected by sidewalks; palm trees, cacti and other desert plants often adorn the yards. Residential homes are mostly single-story midcentury ranch-styles built in the 1960s and 1970s, and many feature open floor plans and modern architecture. Home prices are typically between $800,000 and over $1.5 million, and those with golf course or mountain views can top $2 million. Yard spaces are usually about a quarter acre to one-third acre in size, and almost every house has an outdoor pool. “Los Compadres is one of those neighborhoods that's in transition,” Lavin says. “Younger-generation families are moving in, and lots of properties are being fixed up and renovated on the interior.” Condominiums in subdivisions often sell between $400,000 and $600,000, and homeowners should expect to pay additional monthly HOA fees. Homeowners are often advised to purchase home insurance, as the area’s extreme heat in summertime may cause property damage, such as foundation, façade and/or roof issues.
Many homes in Los Compadres feature ample garage space.
