About This Home

As of August 2015

William Krisel designed Alexander home with stunning west facing mountain views from the expansive backyard with pool and spa on one of the most desirable streets in Vista Las Palmas. Interior retains the original tongue and groove vaulted ceilings and fireplace. The exterior veneer is dying to be removed to reveal the mid-century home beneath. This home is perfect for an investor or creative buyer eager to make it sparkle again!
