South-central Palm Springs’ neighborhood near downtown
One mile south of Downtown Palm Springs, Warm Sands is close to parks, nature preserves, small resorts and the San Jacinto Mountains. This diverse area is older than Palm Springs by around 20 years and was built in several periods with sections of 1920s Spanish-style dwellings, 1970s ranch-styles and an array of manufactured homes. “Warm Sands is an older neighborhood with Spanish homes and some condos, and it’s in a nook with some commercial districts, too. It’s not just a residential neighborhood. There are tons of fun boutique hotels and exclusive small resorts. Warm Sands is a cute subdivision that becomes a destination for people when they stay in the city,” says Niko Esposito, a Realtor with BD Homes with nearly a decade of experience.

A variety of housing styles
Warm Sands’ housing was built in a series of waves: the first in the 1920s, the second in the 1950s and the last in the 1970s. This variety of periods gives the area a suburban feel with bungalows, Adobe-style houses, midcentury manufactured houses and ranch-style design mixing along the residential streets. It also allows for a wide range of prices. The neighborhood is divided into a 55-plus manufactured home community near the western border and more contemporary residences to the east. Homes sell for a median price of $950,000 after 51 days. Manufactured housing ranges from $89,000 to $95,000, while 1920s-era dwellings range from $600,000 to $1.5 million. 1970s or later constructions range from $900,000 to $2 million.
