Experience the epitome of resort-style living at this elegant estate nestled within the Movie Colony of Palm Springs - a masterpiece crafted by Hiram Hudson Benedict, a protégé of the renowned Frank Lloyd Wright. Meticulously re-envisioned in in 2021 the timeless Spanish architectural style, this property spans approximately 2,278 square feet, suffusing its interiors with an abundance of natural light. Boasting four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, this residence is a harmonious blend of sophistication and comfort, positioned a mere block away from a myriad of Palm Springs' finest dining establishments and upscale retail venues.
Previously graced by the presence of illustrious figures such as Bob and Dolores Hope, this idyllic Movie Colony abode exudes a captivating allure. Elegance is woven into every detail, as evidenced by the exquisite Arto tile floors and Talavera tiles adorning the interior spaces. The heart of the home lies within the awe-inspiring great room, crowned by vaulted beamed ceilings that elevate its grandeur. An oversized gas fireplace stands as a centerpiece, while the original hardwood floors, casement windows, and French doors seamlessly merge indoor and outdoor living, leading to the rear patio.
Surrounded by expansive walls, the grounds embrace a newly constructed, glistening swimming pool and spa, framing spectacular views of the majestic mountains. Completing the harmonious ensemble are features such as a detached two-car garage, walk-in closets, an abundance of storage, a basement, a rooftop deck, and the convenience of underground utilities. Adding to the allure, the property is conveniently located just a leisurely stroll or bike ride away from Ruth Hardy Park, upscale dining, boutique shopping, and the excitement of the casino.
Set on an enchanting, tranquil, one direction street, this timeless residence not only promises opulence but also may be eligible for Mills Act, is currently still eligible for a short term rental license, and the detached 440sf two-car garage is a perfect candidate for a permitted ADU conversion, making this both an exceptional home AND a potential luxury investment property!
