About This Home

As of June 2017

One of only five "high-low" Alexanders in Twin Palms, this unique mid century modern home flanked by outdoor patios off every room takes full advantage of its surroundings in the heart of storied Twin Palms. Situated on a hidden portion of South Caliente Rd, enter through a gated courtyard and foyer that opens to high ceilings complemented by clerestory windows and skylights throughout. A resort-style backyard takes center stage at this mid-mod compound ideal for entertaining al fresco, including large, air-conditioned cabana with bath and hidden office space, kitchen pass-through, two separate outdoor dining areas, and shade structure. Updates include new exterior paint, tile floors, new carpet in bedrooms, and solar panels paid in full by seller at closing! Eighteen palm trees tower above a largely drought-tolerant landscape. Furnishings and contents available outside escrow, including dozens of period pieces. A few short blocks from E. Palm Canyon's booming entertainment corridor.
