Detailed Introduction Of This Home
Calypso Palms is a Mid-Century Modern treasure hidden behind the iconic Hotel Trinidad and famous Purple Room Supper Club. Located in the most desirable neighborhood of Palm Springs - the South End, this is where Frank Sinatra and friends first began performing together, and as a result, were coined the "Rat Pack". The iconic, yet secluded condominium compound was originally known as Andee Palms, constructed in 1959-1960, built as a hotel, but given the close proximity to the famous and still popular Purple Room, the complex quickly became the executive residences for Hotel Trinidad, hosting numerous celebrities performing at the iconic venue. Rumor has it that on one occasion, Frank was staying in this unit (1641), and disappointed with the small size of the TV screen, he opened the front door and threw the TV into the swimming pool! The owners have meticulously preserved the original kitchen and bathroom cabinetry, hardware as well as the marble counter-tops in both spacious bathrooms. All new ceramic tile floors were installed throughout in 2022. This unit consists of 1 large primary bedroom and 2 bathrooms, vaulted ceilings and a huge, walled & gated private patio. The complex offers a large, rectangular shaped sparkling pool that was also recently renovated, along with all new concrete decking and sidewalks throughout the property. The low monthly HOA fees include water, trash, seasonal heating of the pool, and insurance. There is a 28-day minimum rental period. Incredible design elements still continue to grace the property including angled roof lines, living room fireplaces, decorative block walls, and clerestory windows. Come see why Calypso Palms is considered one of the most well-preserved and maintained Mid-Century Modern Architectural time capsules of the era!
