Welcome to Desert Holly House! A 3 bed, 2 bath charmer with an amazing layout and cheerful, bright energy that feels quintessentially "Palm Springs"! This 1959 Alexander Home was originally designed by renowned architects Palmer and Krisel. It has a wonderfully spacious floor plan flooded in natural light and featuring both a family and living room that open up onto a lush oversized backyard with a sparkling pool, majestic trees and dramatic mountain views and pastel desert sunsets! Two lovely bedrooms overlook the beautifully manicured landscape. The ultra spacious primary suite is a true retreat with a reading nook, built-in vanity, huge walk-in closet and direct access to a private lounge area and the bright blue pool. Additional features include raised ceilings, a large stand alone spa and a totally finished garage gym with a built-in mini split and insulated garage door. The backyard is your own private desert sanctuary! You'll find yourself surrounded by magic and tranquility in every direction; from the built-in outdoor kitchen, lush fruit trees (Meyer lemons, yum!) to the hummingbirds and lounge areas surrounding the epic pool, you will feel a sense of zen the moment you step outside. This property has been a beloved, highly rated vacation rental with repeat guests for years but also serves as a beautiful canvas to bring your own vision if you chose to make it your own! All in a dream location just a stone's throw from the downtown strip, Victoria park and all the cutest coffee shops Palm Springs has to offer.

Condition Rating
Good

This 1959 Alexander Home presents a well-maintained and updated interior, particularly in key areas. The kitchen features contemporary white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and modern countertops, while both bathrooms have been updated with modern vanities, fixtures, and tiled showers. Flooring is a mix of clean tile, wood-look laminate, and carpet. The property has been a successful vacation rental, indicating functional systems and good upkeep. While the core structure dates back to 1959, and the listing notes potential age-related system concerns (HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roof) and the phrase 'beautiful canvas to bring your own vision,' the visible renovations in the kitchen and bathrooms are significant and appear to be within the last 5-15 years, making the property move-in ready without immediate cosmetic renovations. The outdoor areas, including the pool and built-in kitchen, are also in excellent condition.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location: Situated in Racquet Club East, the property is a stone's throw from the downtown strip, Victoria Park, and popular coffee shops, providing excellent walkability and access to Palm Springs amenities.
Resort-Style Backyard & Views: The oversized backyard features a sparkling pool, stand-alone spa, built-in outdoor kitchen, lush fruit trees, and dramatic mountain views, creating a private desert sanctuary.

Cons

Age-Related Systems & Maintenance: Built in 1959, the property's original systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof) may require significant maintenance, upgrades, or replacement in the near future, which is not explicitly detailed.
Unspecified Main House Cooling System: While the garage gym has a mini-split, the description does not specify the cooling system for the main house, raising concerns about its efficiency or presence of central air conditioning in Palm Springs' hot climate.
Potential for Outdated Finishes: Described as a 'beautiful canvas to bring your own vision,' this may imply that some interior finishes, particularly in areas beyond the primary suite, might not be fully updated to modern buyer expectations.
