About This Home

As of April 2023

Modern Luxury in Old Las Palmas. Reimagined into a restorative environment, this elegant home has been modernized to the new benchmark for contemporary living. The interior has been designed with neutral hues to augment the mountain vistas apparent from the floor to ceiling windows surrounding the spacious living and dining areas. From the seemingly simple polished concrete floors to the distinctive wood accent wall, every space has been revamped. Jump into the completely new saltwater Pebble Tec pool with a sun shelf and spa or review the day lounging in front of the outdoor fireplace. Epicureans will savor the kitchen with polished porcelain waterfall edged counters, stylish present day wood cabinets, a built-in Miele coffee station and 2 large islands, one for prep and one from which to dine, drink and delight. Adjacent is a dining room for extravagant entertaining. The private south wing is dedicated to the primary suite with a generous bedroom, custom walk-in closet and sumptuous spa-like bath. The north wing encompasses a plethora of accommodations including 2 ensuite guest rooms, 2 additional bedrooms, bathroom, powder room, substantial laundry room and pantry/storage room. A leased solar power system keeps those soaring energy costs under control. Take your getaway to the next level in a rejuvenating location in the heart of Palm Springs.
