Listed by Pat Bianchi of Keller Williams Realty
Iconic 1964 mid-century showpiece in desirable South Palm Desert. Originally the model home for Highland Palms Estates, developed by Bud White and Syd Crossley and attributed to modernist architect Charles W. Doty, this architectural gem offers Hollywood Regency design paired with today's modern upgrades. The 1606sf home features dual living areas flanking a beautifully appointed galley kitchen with Brazilian quartzite countertops, a bespoke marble-top bar, 3 bedrooms, and 2 designer-renovated bathrooms. Sophisticated finishes include new porcelain flooring throughout, fresh interior paint, and a cedar-lined primary closet. Upgrades include a newer 18 SEER HVAC system with prepaid maintenance through 2033, swamp cooler, water heater, irrigation, foam roof, tinted windows and Tesla charger. Beyond the private gated entry lies an exceptionally large backyard retreat. Enjoy an expansive covered terrace, dramatic Neoclassical/Hollywood Regency-inspired pool, outdoor shower, privacy hedges, fruit trees, herb gardens, and mountain views. The oversized 2-car garage and prime Palm Desert location, just minutes from premier shopping, dining, golf, art galleries and hiking trails, complete this one-of-a-kind offering.
