About This Home

Tucked away within the Racquet Club, the RCCWa Class 1 Historic District, designed by renowned mid-century architect Cody, this exceptional cottage offers a unique blend of architectural elegance + tranquil desert living. Developed by Trousdale in 1960, the community consists of just 37 cottages and is designed to evoke the ambiance of a secluded retreat. Lush landscaping by Phil Shipley + Dudley Trudgett features winding paths, tranquil ponds, a gentle stream, and mature palms, all set against the striking backdrop of the San Jacinto Mtns. The property exemplifies the hallmarks of Palm Springs Modernism. Situated in a private northwest corner of the complex, this home offers a rare combination of scale, privacy, and timeless design. Buffered from its only adjacent neighbor by two storage rooms, it enjoys a level of separation that enhances its sense of independence. The expansive, fully landscaped backyard, framed by mature, thick hedges + trees, provides a natural extension of the indoor living space, making it peaceful. Architectural elements such as post-and-beam and decorative brise-soleil screens contribute to the home's distinctive character while offering functional shade and privacy. The south-facing living area + bedroom, framed by floor-to-ceiling glass, open onto a lush garden with palms and landscaping designed to capture winter sunlight. The west-facing patio offers panoramic views of the San Jacinto Mtns and is illuminated by soft afternoon light. This unique, premium orientation maximizes natural illumination while offering privacy + expansive outdoor enjoyment. Although the home is classified as a 1BD/2BA, its nearly 1,100 square feet of interior space allows for flexible use, including the potential to create 2 distinct sleeping areas. Three expansive, interconnected patios, one of the largest private yards in the community, enhance the indoor-outdoor lifestyle that defines Palm Springs living. The home has been extensively upgraded with high-quality finishes and systems. The kitchen features sleek cabinetry, stone countertops, and premium appliances, including a Fisher & Paykel induction range, Miele dishwasher, Whirlpool refrigerator, and a Miele washer + dryer located inside a convenient pantry closet. Bathrooms are appointed with Hansgrohe fixtures and Toto Neorest washlet toilets. Additional upgrades include a tankless water heater, a whole-house water filtration system, and an upgraded electrical sub-panel. Historically accurate screen doors have been installed to respect the home's architectural integrity, while LED lighting adds contemporary energy efficiency. Smart home features include Nest thermostats, Nest smoke detectors, Nest exterior cameras, HunterDouglas Luminette window coverings, and a SimpliSafe security system. The interior has been freshly painted, offering a calm, modern aesthetic that complements its mid-century roots. It includes assigned, covered parking just steps away. The community's resort-style pool + spa are nearby, offering relaxation and recreation without compromising privacy.RCCW is a popular stop on Modernism Week tours. This residence is not just a homeit's a collectible work of art. It is eligible for the Mills Act, which may offer significant property tax reductions to owners committed to historic preservation (with potential savings from 30% to 70%). HOA includes water, trash service, roof and exterior wall maintenance, landscaping, access to the community pool, and the maintenance of common area water features. Between the land you own, the short-term rentals (14-day minimum), and the Mills Act, this home presents a rare opportunity for both enjoyment and long-term investment. Conveniently located just minutes from the Uptown Design District and Downtown Palm Springs, and close to the Aerial Tramway, hiking and biking trails, parks, galleries, restaurants, and this home offers a compelling combination of lifestyle, architecture, and investment potential.
