About this home

Sometimes, when presenting a property to market, there are so many exceptional features that it's hard to know where to begin, and this renovation just completed in 2025 is a perfect example. In this case, every aspect of living and entertaining at home has been thoughtfully considered, with a design that not only embraces but becomes one with its natural surroundings. For starters, the site itself is breathtaking, a spectacular setting that elevates this L-shaped modern home above the desert floor, offering seemingly endless mountain views and dramatic city lights. The architecture is deeply connected to the landscape, seamlessly integrating with the rugged terrain that so profoundly inspired the principles of desert modernism. This is a home that doesn't just sit on the land it belongs to it. Inside, the open floor plan is an architectural dream, featuring an "invisible" kitchen with a large island and a striking natural stone wall. The interiors create a tonal and textured atmosphere, seamlessly blending organic materials that bring warmth to the modern aesthetic. Every detail has been designed to honor the desert environment, from the earthy color palette to the strategic placement of glass that frames nature like artwork. A hidden butler's kitchen sits behind the great room, with a galley of counter space and storage leading to what may be the most incredible laundry/mudroom we've ever seen. The integration of style and function throughout the home is next-level. On the other side of the house, a long hallway connects three ensuite guest bedrooms, a spacious den/media room, a gym, an office, and a powder room. A spa-style bathroom, complete with a steam shower, serves both the gym and the pool. And at the very end of this wing? The crown jewel: the primary bedroom suite. Wrapped in glass with a see-through fireplace and perched dramatically on the edge of the mountain, this is unlike any bedroom experience in Palm Springsone where you wake up immersed in the landscape itself. Brand-new Monumental doors and windows dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, leading to a sunken concrete seating area with a fire pit, a swimming pool with a raised infinity spa, and a built-in BBQ with a sink. The outdoor spaces feel like a natural extension of the home, reinforcing the seamless connection between architecture and environment. And did we mention the forever views? Owned solar and all-new systems provide a highly efficient approach to desert modernism. A two-car carport with electric charging stations further enhances the home's sustainability. Truly one of a kind, this dramatic hillside property is the ultimate expression of the Palm Springs experience where modern design and the raw beauty of the desert exist in perfect harmony.
