Description


A rare convergence of architectural significance, exceptional condition, and prime location, this iconic William Krisel-designed, Alexander-built home is a standout offering in the highly coveted Twin Palms neighborhood of South Palm Springs. Defined by its classic butterfly roofline, this home embodies the very essence of timeless Palm Springs Mid-Century Modernism updated with modern-day comfort and conveniences. As Krisel intended, the home features a thoughtfully designed and open floor plan, expansive clerestory windows capturing stunning, west-facing, mountain views and filling the home with natural light, tongue and groove ceilings throughout, and a gas fireplace. This residence exudes pride of ownership, thoughtfully renovated with a deep respect for the home's original design while adding refined, contemporary updates such as porcelain tile flooring, built-in closet cabinetry, renovated bathrooms, and a modernized kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, stainless steel Bosch appliances, a built-in wine refrigerator, quartz countertops, and custom back splash with undercabinet pass thru to the covered outdoor dining area. In addition to the main house, a detached casita offers the flexibility of a spacious fourth bedroom which provides privacy and serenity for guests or acts as a detached workspace or retreat. The enclosed, secluded and secure backyard provides a resort-style sanctuary with an elevated spa spilling into the pool (replastered 2025), water feature, breeze brick wall, gas firepit, outdoor shower, built-in BBQ with counter and sink, private patio off the primary suite, and a combination of lush succulent landscaping and astroturf, all designed for effortless, conservation-friendly, desert living. Additional features include owned solar panels with Tesla Powerwall (home battery), upgraded electrical panel, new foam roof insulation (2018), Ring security system, four outdoor cameras, and covered garage. Exceptional curb appeal with a half-moon driveway on one of the neighborhood's most beautiful streets. This is a rare opportunity to own a true architectural gem and updated classic. A home that effortlessly balances history, design, comfort, and lifestyle resulting in something that is truly timeless, refined, and unmistakably Palm Springs.
