MOTOR UP to the cul-de-sac for a closer look at this iconic 1960 Alexander, quintessential Palm Springs and a darling of the Modernism Tour. A striking breeze block wall fronts the home, making a bold midcentury statement while providing privacy and architectural presence from the street. One of the most coveted rooflines follows with deep overhangs, extra tall ceilings, clerestory windows, and an effortless indoor outdoor flow designed for shade, breezes, and postcard worthy mountain views. Its Garden Road locale is a headline all its own, perfectly positioned within the architecturally significant Racquet Club Estates. The open concept layout spills seamlessly into a resort style backyard that delivers serious wow, ultra private and fully fenced with multiple outdoor entertaining zones anchored by a built in BBQ with bar sink and dry bar, a sparkling saltwater pool and spa with waterfall, a lighted pergola perfect for evening gatherings, gas fire pit, and citrus trees that complete the desert playground. The open kitchen, featuring an island bar with beverage fridge, was built for hosting, while the living room's gas fireplace adds warmth and style. Bedrooms are thoughtfully separated for privacy with the primary suite opening directly to the pool terrace, while guest bedrooms two and three enjoy access to a spacious private garden retreat. Notable upgrades include OWNED SOLAR by HPE, modernist custom cabinetry in the kitchen and expanded dining area, a newer HVAC system, tankless water heater, and custom window coverings throughout. Located moments from the best of Uptown and Downtown Palm Springs shopping, dining, and entertainment, this home shines as a full time residence, weekend escape, or vacation rental (30+ days). More than almost any other builder, Alexander Homes helped cement Palm Springs as the capital of midcentury modern living, and today these homes are highly collectible, endlessly photographed, and always in demand.
