Originally built in 1955 as the Palm Springs retreat of French opera singer Lily Pons, this residence in The Mesa captures the grace of early Desert Modernism while embracing a timeless, contemporary spirit. Set into the hillside with clean lines and natural stone, the home seems to rise from the landscape itself, opening wide to sweeping views of the Coachella Valley where the desert floor shimmers with light after sunset. Glass walls and a warm material palette frame the surrounding mountains and sky, creating an atmosphere that feels both elevated and serene. The primary suite serves as a private refuge with an expansive dressing area, oversized walk-in closet, and direct access to the pool terrace, where a waterfall and spa anchor the property in its natural setting. Beyond the pool, a generous lawn and mature landscaping, including citrus, extend toward the valley below, offering openness and the potential for a secondary home site. Thoughtful updates over time have enhanced comfort and livability while preserving the home's architectural rhythm and sense of calm. Set within the quiet drama of its hillside perch, this residence carries a lyrical history and enduring presence. Once the stage for Palm Springs' golden age, it now awaits its next encore.
