About This Home
As of November 2017Authentic 1935 Spanish estate on 2/3 acres in the prestigious enclave of the Mesa. "White Gables" was created by Hollywood movie star Joseph Cotten. Gilded-age glam and Spanish character abound. Original adobe walls surround the grounds, providing privacy and stature. Visitors enter through a formal, gated entry with a circular motor-court past sweeping lawns, palm and citrus groves (there's a second gated entry for the owner's garage).This elegant and sprawling home comfortably sleeps 14 guests. Gracious formal rooms include a dining room which seats up to 20. Vintage kitchen updated with commercial appliances. 5 of the 6 bedrooms have distinctive ensuite baths. New Spanish tile roof crafted by local artisans. Extremely private and large pool with abundant outdoor living space to lounge in the sun and enjoy the views of the mountains. Superior vacation rental history. Terrific opportunity to own one of Palm Springs storied estates with great rental income.
