Overview

Description

Step back into a time of romance, movie stars & celebrity gatherings! Completely walled & gated. This old Spanish estate with tennis court & covered patios is full of the, ever so popular, vintage Palm Springs feeling. The property is completely walled & gated and is located in prestigious Old Las Palmas. You enter into a foyer and then into a massive living room with fireplace and beamed ceiling. (Large enough for a grand piano and dining area.) Continue into a room with windows and French doors that reach out to the bougainvillea framed & covered patio with views of the pool, spa, tennis court and mountains. There are 5 quaint bedrooms, 3 with private baths in the main house and a guest house, casita or studio across the breeze way with private bath+garden views. The kitchen has a view of the tennis court & mountains & has the nooks & crannies reminiscent of older construction. A very special home & truly one of a kind! Offered furnished - most art work and some furniture excluded.
