About This Home
As of February 2020Designed by Donald Wexler and Richard Harrison in 1961, this designated historic Royal Hawaiian unit will be featured in the upcoming "Palm Springs" edition of Atomic Ranch magazine. Fee land (you own). Every detail of the unit has been thoughtfully curated including grass-cloth wall coverings, flaming torches, flying 7's and tiki carvings. Lending an authentic Hawaiian touch, whilst giving a whimsical nod to South Pacific culture. Walls of glass lead to a large back patio adorned with authentic tropical flora as the San Jacinto mountains frame the background. The tastefully appointed kitchen and bathrooms are a modern update and artfully blend into their colorful surroundings. Entertain guests in the "Tiki Lounge" or convert to 3rd bedroom if needed. Subject property is furthest unit away from any main street that has unobstructed west views of mountain range. Perfect location! Mills Act reduction in property taxes. Featured in Modernism Week.
