Property Description

Tucked into the end of a cul-de-sac in Racquet Club Estates, this 1959 Alexander Construction home is a genuine William Krisel design - not a renovation-era approximation, not a "mid-century inspired" reinterpretation, but the real architecture; post-and-beam construction, a butterfly-adjacent low-slung roofline, walls of glass, and the clerestory windows Krisel used to pull desert light deep into the plan without sacrificing privacy. Step inside and the bones speak first. Exposed wood ceilings run uninterrupted from the interior to the covered patio, blurring the line Krisel built his reputation on erasing. The open floor plan holds its scale - this is a home designed for entertaining without ever feeling cavernous, a hallmark of the Alexander/Krisel partnership that built Palm Springs' modernist identity. Kitchen and bathrooms were thoughtfully updated in 2005, respecting the original material palette rather than fighting it. Outside, the private pool and spa sit in a private setting framed by desert landscaping and tall ficus hedges - the payoff of Krisel's signature siting, where every home in a tract was angled to protect sight lines and privacy instead of repeating a single orientation. This is a rare offering for the collector or enthusiast who understands the difference between a home that looks mid-century and one that is mid-century; 1225 square feet, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and an architectural pedigree that doesn't need embellishing. Racquet Club Estates - one of the most historically intact Alexander neighborhoods in Palm Springs.
