Ruby Gold Palm Springs, California

Property Description

A neon-green front door, a garden filled with vibrant, hand-blown glass sculptures, and a graffiti art wall – this home certainly doesn’t fade into the background. If you’re a lover of the bold and the beautiful, you’ll find yourself right at home in this creative space. Surrounded by the lush palms and mountain views that make Palm Springs such a popular destination, you’re just an eight-minute drive from the Aerial Tramway, a six-minute ride to the fashionable Design District and the bars and restaurants of Downtown are all right at your doorstep. But if you’re feeling like a day at home, there’s plenty to do without getting in the car – hang out in your private backyard, lounge by the pool, seek shelter from the sun under a towering palm, or throw some kebabs on the grill and enjoy a slap-up meal around the fire pit. Inside, marble flooring, vintage prints and art objects make for a sleek, sophisticated pad with all of the mod-cons needed for a comfortable stay. Although we think you'll spend most of your time outside, making the most of the great year-round climate. It's a lovely, private oasis to kick back and spend hot, languorous days topping up your tan, playing games and making new memories with friends and family.
