Experience timeless Palm Springs luxury reimagined for modern living in this Spanish Hacienda, located in the prestigious Old Las Palmas neighborhood-- one of the city's most iconic enclaves and home to legendary estates. This property neighbors Liberace's famed Palm Springs residence and also neighboring Clark Gable's historic desert retreat, placing it among some of the most storied homes of Hollywood's Golden Age.This estate had undergone decades of fragmented updates before being completely re-envisioned by acclaimed Laguna Beach designer Sheldon Harte of Harte Brownlee & Associates. Harte masterfully unified the home--once a disjointed ''Frankenterior''--into a cohesive, romantic, and luxuriously livable Spanish retreat designed for multigenerational enjoyment.Spanning nearly 5,822 sq. ft. on a single level, the residence features 6 ensuite bedrooms, including an opulent primary suite with a walk-through closet, rain shower, and a hand-carved marble soaking tub. A private 2-bedroom casita with its own entrance provides ideal accommodations for guests or extended family.Elegant formal rooms flow effortlessly into warm, inviting spaces, including a stunning chef's kitchen with a massive island, Thermador appliances, and an adjacent bonus/billiards room perfect for hosting gatherings of all sizes.Set on a gated corner lot of more than one-half acre, the landscaped grounds--designed by renowned landscape architect Marcello Villano--offer true resort living with mature gardens, a sparkling pool, outdoor fireplace, built-in BBQ, life-sized chess set, a 4-car garage, and a spacious gated motor court.All of this is just a short walk to the heart of Downtown Palm Springs, with its vibrant dining, shopping, and nightlife -- including the brand-new Thompson Palm Springs hotel, its curated retail, and elevated restaurant offerings just minutes away.A rare Old Las Palmas masterpiece, this estate blends historical significance, modern luxury, and an unbeatable walkable location in the most coveted neighborhood in Palm Springs.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Walkability: Situated in the prestigious Old Las Palmas neighborhood, neighboring historic celebrity estates, and offering an unbeatable walkable location to Downtown Palm Springs' vibrant dining, shopping, and nightlife.
Designer Renovation & Luxury Finishes: Masterfully re-envisioned by acclaimed designer Sheldon Harte, featuring a cohesive Spanish retreat aesthetic, a chef's kitchen with Thermador appliances, and an opulent primary suite with a hand-carved marble soaking tub.
Spacious & Versatile Layout: Spanning nearly 5,822 sq. ft. on a single level with 6 ensuite bedrooms, including a private 2-bedroom casita with its own entrance, ideal for guests or extended family.
Resort-Style Outdoor Living: Set on a gated corner lot of over half an acre with grounds designed by renowned landscape architect Marcello Villano, featuring a sparkling pool, outdoor fireplace, built-in BBQ, and a life-sized chess set.
Historical Significance & Exclusivity: A rare Old Las Palmas masterpiece blending historical significance from Hollywood's Golden Age with modern luxury, offering a unique and coveted property.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 6, other record bedroom count = 4.
High Price Point: The list price of $9.3 million represents a significant investment, which naturally narrows the pool of potential buyers.
Ongoing Maintenance Costs: A large estate of this caliber, with extensive landscaping, a pool, and high-end features, will likely incur substantial ongoing maintenance and operational expenses.
Specific Architectural Style: While beautifully executed, the distinct Spanish Hacienda aesthetic may not appeal to all luxury buyers, potentially limiting market reach compared to a more universally appealing design.
