About This Home

As of July 2015

This Butterfly Alexander, one of the most iconic homes designed by architects Palmer & Krisel, is a Palm Springs treasure! The homes on Berne Drive are mostly refurbished mid-century homes, and this home sits on a huge pie-shaped lot - almost 1/3 acre - with spectacular west facing mountain views. Original post and beam ceilings and classic clerestory windows add to the je ne sais quoi of the 1950s home which is tastefully upgraded. The lush grounds are a paradise of mature palm trees and colorful flowering hedges surrounded by a privacy fence. Shady covered patio off the living room opens out to the large pool, separate spa and fire pit with conversation area. Plenty of room for a future casita, putting green or bocce ball court. Make this one yours and perhaps you can have it on the RCENO neighborhood tour during Modernism Week next year!
