Located within close proximity of iconic El Paseo, this rare Albert Frey–designed mid-century modern estate is a timeless expression of desert architecture. Built in 1950 and set on nearly one acre, the property reflects the design legacy that defines the Palm Springs area as a global destination for mid-century modern living. A striking circular motor court welcomes you to this south-facing residence, offering approximately 4,587 sq. ft. with 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, separate guest house and three-car finished garage. Every room is oriented to capture sweeping views of the desert landscape, mountains, and resort-style grounds. Walls of accordion glass doors create seamless indoor-outdoor flow to the pool, spa, multiple patios, and private pitch-and-putt green—ideal for entertaining under the desert sky. The living room features vaulted ceilings and opens to the dining area and chef’s kitchen with generous counter space, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, and breakfast bar. A separate family room provides additional space to relax and gather. Amenities include HVAC, a custom, climate-controlled wine room for over 1,000 bottles. The primary suite offers a fireplace, tranquil outdoor lounge, soaking tub, dual vanities, dual-entry shower, and expansive walk-in closet. The guest house is a private retreat with full kitchen, fireplace, great room, bedroom, and bath. Owned solar system. Offered furnished. A rare opportunity to own a true architectural estate in one of Palm Desert’s most sought-after locations.
