Description


PUBLISHED IN PALM SPRINGS LIFE MAGAZINE APRIL 2019. Sited on a rugged promontory near the crown of The Mesa sits this iconic Palm Springs landmark now known as The Santorini House. First time on the market in 35 years after a 2 year re-imagination, re-design and nearly $1M renovation. Originally designed and built by architect William Nicholson in 1977. The property claims the land and offers sweeping views in all directions from several levels. The structure is a unique work of art. An abundance of natural elements were used in the renovation: Curved plaster walls, softly domed ceilings, half-moon openings on the fireplaces, century old beams from a barn in Pennsylvania, re-claimed wood from a 120 yr old farmhouse, tiles imported from Greece including Thassos marble and white Agean limestone. The property regularly books photo shoots and special events and has been used by Nordstroms, Boston Proper, Annie Selke, Pine Cone Hill, Dash & Albert and others. All designer furnishings and the adjacent .56 acre buildable lot with separate APN are included in the sale. Owner May Carry w/substantial downpayment.
