Property Description
Welcome to this exceptional fully remodeled Palm Springs home originally designed by renowned architect Hugh Kaptur, thoughtfully taken down to the studs in 2019 and reimagined for modern desert living. Ideally located on a quiet cul-de-sac just minutes from downtown, this stylish property offers an open-concept layout, beautifully remodeled kitchen, spa-inspired bathrooms, and exceptional indoor-outdoor flow. Designed to embrace the best of the Palm Springs lifestyle, the backyard is a true extension of the home. Stunning mountain views create the backdrop for a magical outdoor setting featuring a PebbleTec pool and spa, fire pit lounge area, mature landscaping, citrus trees, newer concrete throughout the pool deck and entertaining spaces, an outdoor kitchen with grill, raised cabanas for sunset lounging, and a long covered patio perfect for dining and entertaining. Whether hosting guests or enjoying a quiet desert evening, the outdoor spaces feel private, peaceful, and purposeful. Additional upgrades include all new windows and french doors, built-in speaker wiring throughout the home and patio, an opened-up kitchen layout, new garage storage closets, epoxy garage floors, and a new pool heater installed in 2025. There is also room to add a casita, creating even more flexibility and future value. The property has also been a successful short-term rental, and the neighborhood is currently still under the vacation rental cap, making it an excellent opportunity for investors, second-home buyers, or full-time residents alike. Perfect opportunity to take advantage of potential cost segregation and bonus depreciation tax benefits for 2026 while owning a proven Palm Springs investment property with income history and future upside. With no power lines, sidewalks throughout the neighborhood, beautiful surrounding homes, strong mountain views, and close proximity to downtown Palm Springs, this is a standout architectural desert property offering both immediate livability and long-term potential. Hurry before this incredible Palm Springs home is sold!
