Experience the quintessential Palm Springs lifestyle in this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom classic built in 1966 by the legendary Alexander Construction Company. Located in the highly sought-after Los Compadres neighborhood historically known as Araby Estates, this property offers a unique blend of architectural pedigree and incredible value. The Los Compadres neighborhood is celebrated for its rich history, originally centered around the area's historic equestrian club. Unlike many other communities of its era, this enclave features buried power lines for unobstructed, "photo-perfect" mountain views and wide, sidewalk-lined streets that showcase the thoughtful development making it a local favorite for decades. Offered for the first time in over thirty years, this home has been a cherished retreat and features significant updates. The kitchen has been tastefully remodeled, offering a contemporary workspace that honors the home's original architectural flow. Efficiency is enhanced by newer dual-pane windows and doors throughout, while the outdoor living space has been thoughtfully improved with a recently resurfaced pool deck and a new custom patio covering, providing the perfect setting for desert entertaining. True to its 1966 roots, the home showcases the clean lines and indoor-outdoor synergy that defined the Desert Modernism movement. This is a rare chance to acquire a piece of Palm Springs history and personalize a classic Alexander to your own taste. We have priced this property aggressively - well under the market value of fully remodeled homes in the immediate area, providing the savvy buyer with immediate equity and a prime foundation in one of the city's most peaceful and picturesque neighborhoods.
