This restored Mid Century Modern Krisel designed Palm Springs Vacation home was built by the celebrated Alexander Construction Co. in 1959. Located in Racquet Club Estates, it has spectacular mountain views, desert landscaping and a huge swimming pool with new tile and plaster. Inside you'll find vaulted tongue and groove ceilings, gorgeous porcelain tile floors, entire walls of glass doors opening onto the patio and pool area, and Mid-Century furnishings by classic designers such as Platner, Nelson, Eames, Bellini and Noguchi, as well as new modern classics from Design Within Reach and Herman Miller. The décor is complemented by vintage mid-century abstract paintings in each room.
The brand new kitchen has clean and modern lines, with mosaic tile back splash, quartz counter tops and stainless steel appliances. Dine at the huge center island, which is great for entertaining. Enjoy gorgeous mountain views out of the clerestory windows, which fill the room with light.
This home is larger than the typical Alexander floor plan, owing to the seamless dining room addition, which takes advantage of the space from the original breezeway. This allows for a beautiful, original Platner chrome and glass dining table which seats 6 to 8 people, as well as vintage Danish Modern chairs and credenza. The kitchen and dining room are open to the expansive living room, with its walls of sliding glass doors that lead to the private pool and yard. Enjoy movies on the 42? flat screen LCD TV with Blu-Ray player and Sony surround sound. Free WiFi access is available from anywhere in the house.
The elegantly tiled floors continue throughout the home, including both remodeled bathrooms, which also feature cool, modern tiles in the showers, as well as new chrome fixtures and washbasins. The master bedroom boasts a modern, chrome canopy bed, vintage mid-century Danish and 21st Century furnishings, luxurious new mattress and linens, as well as a flat screen TV. The second bedroom also features the same new mattress, linens, and flat screen TV as the master bedroom, along with an Eames side chair and a vintage Danish modern armchair. The middle bedroom has a Danish-made daybed, which converts into a comfortable queen size bed, a vintage oval glass and wood mid-century coffee table, and a desk.
Outdoors, your private yard includes two covered patios with comfortable modern outdoor sofa and armchairs. Grill lunch or dinner on the new stainless steel gas BBQ and enjoy it poolside at the over-sized teak dining table from the Design With Reach Veneto Collection, with seating for six. Enjoy the fantastic mountain views from the matching teak DWR lounge chairs. Swim or relax in the heated pool, remodeled with new plaster and blue and white mosaic tiles that perfectly evoke the original mid-century design. A great escape for just the two of you, or perfect for entertaining your entire group!
