Capturing the magic of Californian glamour, this striking home is the work of iconic architect Jack Meiselman. Built in 1959, it's been lovingly restored to include all the creature comforts we demand today, while preserving its mid-century design. Rustle up a feast in the modern kitchen and choose between the formal dining space inside or the covered terrace out back – cooled with its own integrated misting system. Escape the heat in the saltwater pool and spa, then knock back a tipple or two with friends around the fire pit. The best of Palm Springs is right on your doorstep, so if you’d rather head out for the evening, quality dining options are just a stroll away. For the ultimate in indulgence, arrange to hire a private chef for a special meal, or kick back with a poolside massage.
