About This Home
A true mid-century modern opportunity in one of South Palm Springs' most cherished architectural neighborhoods: Twin Palms. Built in 1958 by the famed Alexander Construction Company, this classic "Butterfly Alexander" showcases the iconic roofline, soaring vaulted ceilings, tongue-and-groove exposed beams, and clerestory windows that frame swaying palms and dramatic mountain silhouettes. Set on land you own (no land lease) and no HOA, the property offers tremendous architectural potential along with immediate lifestyle perks. The west-facing backyard captures the best of Palm Springs sun and scenery and features a freshly resurfaced pool and spa, updated equipment, and owned solar panels for year-round efficiency. Inside, the traditional mid-century floor plan includes a west-facing dining area and a living room with fireplace, an adjacent kitchen with backyard access and exterior views, and a classic bedroom layout that includes a Primary Ensuite plus two guest bedrooms with a nearby hall bath. The original footprint has been expanded to add a casual living space with a bar that opens to the backyard: a great foundation for indoor/outdoor entertaining. Move-in updates include new interior and exterior paint, a new water heater, and a new garage door. With its architectural pedigree and prime location, this is the ideal canvas for someone ready to bring a classic Butterfly Alexander forward into 2026. Even better: the property qualifies for a Vacation Rental Certificate, offering short-term rental possibilities for investors or part-time residents. This is a rare chance to restore, reimagine, and celebrate one of Palm Springs' most recognizable mid-century forms - all in a neighborhood beloved by enthusiasts from around the world.
