About this home

Live at the heart of Palm Springs history and lifestyle in this exceptional residence located in the iconic Historic Tennis Club neighborhood, one of the city's most prestigious, walkable, and architecturally rich enclaves. Set within Desert Seville, a gated boutique community of just four residences, this beautifully updated home offers approximately 1,592 sq. ft., two spacious primary suites, 2.5 baths, and two private patios, blending timeless Palm Springs character with modern comfort, efficiency, and thoughtful design. The flexible floor plan features dual primary bedrooms, each with walk-in closets and en-suite baths, ideal for full-time living, guests, or a refined second home. Light-filled interiors showcase Milgard doors and windows, updated interior lighting, newer tile flooring, and a stylish kitchen highlighted by a farmhouse sink, modern appliances, and coordinated hardware throughout, creating a polished, cohesive look. Beyond the square footage, the home offers several "hidden bonus" spaces that elevate everyday living, an under-the-stairs grandkids' hideaway/library/play area, plus a private office discreetly tucked behind a barn door, perfect for remote work or creative pursuits. Recent upgrades add exceptional value and peace of mind, including a high-efficiency Trane XV18 heat pump (2023), an owned Renova solar system with 14 panels, new water heater (2022), decorative front door glass insert (2024), and new stairway carpet (2025). Residents enjoy resort-style community amenities including a pool, spa, fire pit, secure gated entry, and two assigned parking spaces, all within a serene, private setting. Best of all, this unbeatable location places you just three blocks from the newly reopened Historic Plaza Theatre and moments from Palm Springs' most celebrated dining and social scene, Le Vallauris, Spencer's, Lulu, Kaiser Grille, Johannes, Pomme Frite, Sherman's Deli, Tyler's, Zin, and Johnny Costa's all an easy walk from your front door. Surrounded by iconic architecture and Hollywood legacy, the Historic Tennis Club neighborhood represents the very best of Palm Springs living. Opportunities to own in this location, especially within such a small, well-maintained community, are exceptionally rare. Historic. Walkable. Energy-efficient. Effortlessly Palm Springs.

Older Construction Year: Built in 1977, the property's original construction date, despite extensive updates, may raise concerns for some buyers regarding underlying infrastructure or potential for future maintenance related to its age.
Condominium Ownership Limitations: As a condominium, it entails shared walls, potential for less privacy compared to a single-family home, and adherence to HOA rules and regulations, which might not appeal to all buyers seeking complete autonomy.
