Palm Springs Condos for Sale - Country Club Estates - 1973 Camino Real, $248,000
Country Club Estates was designed by A. Quincy Jones, FAIA and constructed in 1965. Some of the mid century design elements still in place are the floor-to-ceiling patio doors, terrazzo flooring, use of block, and a large central atrium.
The private atrium is open with glass on three sides - at the entryway, living room and from the master bedroom. The options for making this outdoor space spectacular are many.
The natural light is fantastic. The terrazzo flooring is still in tact. The ceilings are tall. The space is open and modern.
This is a perfect opportunity for someone who wants to undergo a project to make this space shine again.
There are two bedrooms, two baths in 1486sf. The atrium and patio increase the living space substantially.

Palm Springs Homes for Sale - Deepwell - 1076 E Deepwell Rd, $1,100,000.
I saw this Deepwell home several weeks ago on broker tour. I spent quite a while there soaking in the cool architecture and design elements. It's a fantastic example of a 50's Ranch home and offers lots of details, such as a built-in sofa! Walls of glass bring lots of natural light into the warm interior. At 4000SF, there's plenty of room for entertaining and family gatherings. Three bedrooms, four and a half baths. For further details, or for an appointment to see, contact me at 760.902.3121

Palm Springs Homes for Sale - Ruth Hardy Park - $477K
I saw this terrific 1947 Ruth Hardy Park home a couple of weeks ago on broker caravan. It was my favorite, by far, of the day.
It's bright and cheery with a south-facing pool, patio and garden. The floors are honed concrete, the ceiling, post and beam, painted a crisp white. The galley like kitchen is remodeled with slab granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances.
There are technically three bedrooms and two baths. Currently, though, and to good effect, the third bedroom is opened to the living room and utilized as a den. It makes for a nice open space. For those needing a dedicated third bedroom, it's not difficult to convert this space back.
The windows are original metal casement windows. They are WONDERFUL! Though not efficient, the character they provide is, dare I say, irreplaceable.
If you're looking for a home with tons of character, that is move-in ready and priced in the $400Ks, contact me to see this one. It's fantastic! 760.902.3121

Palm Springs Condos For Sale - Garden Villas East - $255,000.
I saw this spacious Gardens Villas East condo on broker tour Wednesday. I've always liked this development (along with the adjacent Gardens Villas West). This unit is located well off the through streets of Barona and Morongo, essentially ensuring no street noise! While it's a cosmetic fixer, this almost 2000sf 3/2 condo is clean and tidy; most buyers will just find that it needs new finishes. The space is great, as is the natural light. There's a large patio with mountain views. There's easy outdoor access from the living room, den (3rd bedroom) and from the mater suite.

Palm Springs Vacant Land For Sale -Ridge Mountain, $629K
If you're looking to build your dream home on a large lot that has mountain, valley and city lights views, you should consider my Ridge Mountain listing.
Ridge Mountain is located in South Palm Springs, off South Palm Canyon Drive towards the Indian Canyons. It's gated with paved streets and electric and water are available.
The views are spectacular! Mountains, valley and city. All from one site.
The building site is perfect for constructing an architecturally significant home, with lots of boulders and interesting terrain.
While this particular parcel is zoned for more than one structure, developers will be interested to know that the owner of the adjoining parcel, also zoned R2, is interested in selling. I have open communication with his broker and know that he wishes to sell. This provides a unique opportunity while construction costs and material costs are low to build out these two lots.
Contact me for more details, or for access to Ridge Mountain. 760.902.3121

Palm Springs Homes for Sale - Demuth Park
This Demuth Park home at 3710 E Mesquite Ave. came on the market Tuesday. It's already in escrow with multiple offers over asking price! Granted, it was listed under market value at $124,900. as a short sale and was priced to generate multiple offers. The plan worked.
It's a nice home, particularly for the price, even if it sells well over asking. The only negative I saw was that it's on Mesquite Ave., a relatively busy street, especially when events occur at Demuth Park, which is directly across the street from the home. The park, of course, is a positive for many people, so maybe it outweighs the level of car traffic?
It's too late to see this one, but there will be others! Contact me if you want me to look for you! 760.902.3121

Palm Springs Homes for Sale - Vista Las Palmas, $995,000.
I got a sneak look at this sexy Vista Las Palmas neighborhood Alexander at 1032 W Capistrano Ct. last weekend. It's another exceptional project by H3K Design. There's beautiful tile work in the baths and kitchen. Natural light is abundant through the walls of glass which offer enviable views to the mountains, new pool/spa and to the gardens.
There are 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in just under 2740 square feet. The home is positioned nicely on the 10,890 square feet lot.

Palm Springs Homes for Sale - Twin Palms, $642,500.
I saw this 3 bedroom 2.5 bath remodeled Alexander at 1820 S Aquanetta Dr. in Palm Springs' Twin Palms neighborhood today and was impressed by much of the remodel. The flooring in the common areas of the home is white terrazzo tile with flecks of blue. They are quite nice, as is the sandblasted tongue and groove ceiling, which continues throughout to the eaves and is seen through the clearstory windows.
The architectural metal reveals, which separate the stucco on the exterior of the home, successfully give the home a more horizontal look. They are a very nice touch. The seamless metal roof ties in nicely.
The pool and spa are situated to take advantage of the mountain views, which are magical, in my opinion.
The remodeled kitchen is open and large and has lots of storage. There's plenty of room for an island, or a small kitchen table, if an owner wishes.
All bedrooms have a patio door to the pool/spa and gardens.
At 1600sf, this Alexander isn't huge, but it's open and bright and should offer just enough space for many people. Plus, the outdoor patio space adds a bunch of square footage!

Summer Vacation in Idaho
I just recently returned from vacation in Idaho, including visits to The Grand Tetons National Park and Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. We rented a great "cabin" in Driggs ID, on the west side of the Grand Tetons.
It was great to get out in nature and smell fresh mountain air!
Since this blog is about real estate, I thought I'd share some photos of houses near the cabin (which is really a house!) we stayed in.

William Holden Home in Deepwell Sold!
Palm Springs' Deepwell neighborhood was once home to William Holden. His former home at 1323 S Driftwood sold last week for $1,349,000. per the Desert Area MLS.
The home is a wonderful example of original mid century architecture with walls of glass, terrazzo flooring, post and beam construction and tongue and groove ceilings. The home sits on almost one acre of land.
It will be exciting to see what the new owner will do (if anything?) to this prize property.

Palm Springs Homes for Sale - The Mesa, $830,000.
I saw this spectacular post & beam constructed home in The Mesa neighborhood on this week's broker tour. It's modern and warm with lots of natural light and drop gorgeous mountain and valley views.
I have admired this home (from just seeing it from the street) for a long time, so I was excited to be able to see the inside.
This home sits at the top of the road; the mountain is RIGHT THERE!
The finishes are nicely done. Bamboo flooring, designer tile, Fleetwood sliders and more.
Two bedrooms and two baths in 1500 square feet. There are approved plans for a third bedroom/bath to be constructed over the garage. I can envision a fantastic master suite with unobstructed valley and mountain views!
Contact me for showings or more information - 760.902.3121

Palm Springs Condos for Sale - Greenhouse East - $320,000.
Most of my condo buyers want a single level condo with no one above them. There are several developments in Central and South Palm Springs that are options, but Greenhouse East, in my opinion, is one of the best.
This unit at 486 Hermosa Dr is the larger floor plan with 3 bedrooms and 3 baths. Many buyers use the 3rd bedroom located adjacent to the living room as a den. It works well that way. The layout is great with essentially two master suites, each with a slider out to the patio. The patio for 486 faces west, and with a little effort, will have good mountain views. While this home does not have a spa ( or small pool), many in Greenhouse East do. I think that's one of the things I like best about these condos: a large private walled patio with space for a spa, or even a small pool!
The grounds are nicely maintained and there is a swimmer's pool. Probably one of the best in Palm Springs! You can relax in privacy in your own spa, but get exercise in the swimmer's pool.
486 needs a little updating, but the space is terrific, the location ideal. Contact me if you want a showing. Greenhouse East is really great! 760.902.3121

Palm Springs Homes for Sale - Deepwell, $779,000.
There's another high quality "fix and flip" in the Deepwell neighborhood. This one at 1012 S Paseo De Marcia has 4 bedrooms and 4 baths in just over three thousand square feet. I showed this house last year when it was for sale as a foreclosure and saw then the potential for this fantastic house! When I saw the home last weekend, I was impressed with the remodel. What a difference! It has a great floor plan, lots of natural light through many new dual-pane windows and a modern kitchen open to the family room and the back gardens with pool. If you want to see this classy remodel built in 1955, contact me for a showing. 760.902.3121
