Property is move-in ready.
This mid-century modern property is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready. While originally built in 1964, the home features updated stainless steel kitchen appliances, clean interior finishes, and well-preserved architectural elements like the iconic floor-to-ceiling glass walls and post-and-beam structure. It shows minimal wear and tear, and while the kitchen cabinetry and countertops are not brand new, they are functional and consistent with the home's high-design aesthetic, requiring no immediate renovation.
Designed by master architect William F. Cody, FAIA, this property is a rare mid-century modern masterpiece featuring iconic post-and-beam construction and significant historical value.
Floor-to-ceiling glass walls and floating rooflines offer uninterrupted views of the San Jacinto Mountains and lush, cinematic landscaping, epitomizing the desert's 'theatre of living'.
Located in the prestigious 37-unit Racquet Club Garden Villas, the property offers a private, curated retreat with a rich social history and high-design aesthetic.
The monthly association fee of $822 is substantial for a one-bedroom condominium, which may impact the overall affordability and ROI for potential investors.
With only one bedroom despite having over 1,200 square feet of living space, the floor plan may not suit buyers requiring guest accommodations or a dedicated home office.
The Cody Code: Mid-Century Mystique at the Racquet Club Cottages West In the late 1950s, if you weren't at the Racquet Club, you weren't in Palm Springs. But for the true cognoscenti - those who craved the club's proximity but demanded a more curated seclusion there was only one destination: Racquet Club Cottages West. Today known as the Racquet Club Garden Villas, this 37-unit enclave is less of a condominium complex and more of a manifesto on desert elegance. It was born from a collision of mid-century titans: the ruthless ambition of developer Paul Trousdale and the ethereal, pencil-thin aesthetic of master architect William F. Cody, FAIA. A Masterclass in Transparency - Constructed between 1959 and 1960, the villas are an expert demonstration in Cody's signature "lightness". Here, post-and-beam framework support rooflines that seem to float like tectonic plates above vast, uninterrupted expanses of glass. To step inside is to realize that "walls" are merely a suggestion; the true perimeter is the rugged horizon of the San Jacinto Mountains. The Shipley Wilds - While the architecture is rigorous and lean, the atmosphere is anything but clinical. Cody's geometry is softened by the lush, almost cinematic landscapes of Phil Shipley and Associates. Shipley rejected the stark, cactus-and-gravel cliches of the era in favor of a verdant, jungle-like density. The result is a voyeuristic paradise series of private glass boxes peering out from behind a screen of exotic flora. The Pedigree: Architect William F. Cody, the man who gave the desert its most sophisticated silhouettes. The Vision: A transition from the "social-see-and-be-seen" energy of the adjacent Racquet Club to a private, hyper-modern retreat. The Vibe: Slim-line martini glasses, slim-line architecture, and thick-set privacy. Modernist Immortality: Sixty-five years later, the Garden Villas remain the gold standard for the "Cody Set." They are rare artifacts of an era when architecture wasn't just about shelter - it was about the theatre of living. For the collector of spaces, these aren't merely condominiums; they are high-design bunkers for the soul, wrapped in glass and guarded by palms. "In Cody's world, the desert isn't something you look at through a window; it's a room you choose to inhabit."
