About This Home

As of November 2020

PRICE IMPROVEMENT! This chic mid-century modern home is located in the exclusive Vista Las Palmas neighborhood of Palm Springs.

Built by the esteemed Palm-Springs based Alexander Construction Company in 1957. The main residence with open floor plan and attached Casita with private entrance offers 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms and presents approx. 2,909 SF of living space.
