About This Home

As of August 2013

Desert Knoll is designed with an eye to the classic contemporary architecture that defines the Palm Springs lifestyle; open & exciting. The flat roof, clean lines and wide expanses of glass provide panoramic views, abundant natural light, and erase the line between indoors & out for seamless living & entertaining. At first look, the house blends in perfectly with the desert terrain; huge boulders accented with natural landscaping indigenous to the area. Once inside the walls and gates that secure the property and protect its privacy, the setting is a verdant green tropical landscape that has a luxurious cooling effect to the eye & the senses. As you approach the tall glass entry, you'll immediately understand the scale & volume of the house. The oversized entry hall with towering ceilings is formal, yet inviting. The living room extends outward to the covered patio through a full wall of glass doors that dissapear as they slide into a pocket. Next: Click on the pictures & read captions
