  • Unrivaled Lot Scale and Privacy

    Spanning 4 acres with 200 mature palm trees and citrus groves, this is one of the largest residential lots in Palm Springs, offering an expansive, park-like setting with uninterrupted mountain views.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 15000, other record living area = 7715. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 8, other record bedroom count = 6.

  • Substantial Maintenance Requirements

    The age of the 1928 structures combined with the massive acreage and extensive landscaping suggests high carrying costs and the potential for significant ongoing preservation efforts.

  • Possession Constraints

    The seller's requirement for a 30-day leaseback to remove estate contents prevents immediate occupancy and full possession for the buyer upon the close of escrow.
