Step into a retro-cool, curated lifestyle, a 3/2 home plus bonus casita sold fully furnished and completely stocked for those ready to dive headfirst into the Palm Springs dream. Whether you're seeking a lucrative rental opportunity, vibrant vacation retreat or a chic primary residence, this mid-century gem offers an effortless transition into the quintessential desert aesthetic. Bathed in natural light and framed by awe-inspiring mountain views from almost every room, the interior celebrates open-concept living. Crisp recessed lighting, dual-paned windows, and vibrant wall art create an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and soulful. Gather around the cozy gas fireplace in the living room or enjoy a movie on one of the three wall-mounted TVs. Wine and dine just minutes away at popular downtown restaurants like Bar Cecil, Farm, Cheeky's, The Heyday and many more, or cook at home in the chef's kitchen featuring sleek stainless steel appliances and plenty of room to shake up a poolside martini. The Primary Suite: A true romantic sanctuary featuring customized closets and an en-suite 3/4 bath with a floor-to-ceiling picture window that peers out toward your private outdoor shower. Slide open the glass doors for direct access to the starlit yard. Outside, the desert landscape becomes a masterpiece. The terraced levels offer a variety of "moods" for entertaining, all surrounded by drought-tolerant landscaping that honors the local environment. A large, sparkling heated pool and a jacuzzi spa with jets serve as the centerpiece for long, sun-drenched afternoons. Choose between multiple built-in firepits for evening cocktails and storytelling under the stars. Sway in the hammock beneath the newer pergola, or rinse off after a swim in one of the two outdoor showers. Tucked away for ultimate privacy, the garage has been artfully converted into a bonus studio casita. Complete with a separate entrance, a dramatic beamed ceiling, a 3/4 bathroom, and a dedicated minisplit HVAC unit, it's the perfect space for a creative studio, home office, or a stylish guest retreat (featuring its own hanging chair!). While the vibe is classic, the infrastructure is 2026-ready with a fully equipped solar panel system, central HVAC with a newer AC and ceiling fans throughout. Perfectly positioned with no HOA on fee simple (owned) land, this Gateway community gem offers lucrative potential with short-term vacation rental eligibility in an area known to generate over six figures annually. You'll enjoy total tranquility yet remain just minutes from the vibrant energy of downtown Palm Springs, the Aerial Tramway, and world-class golfing. It's a rare opportunity where a stunning personal retreat meets a high-performing investment, all within reach of the desert's best hiking and dining. Welcome to your next best decision!
