Tucked behind private gates within a gated Palm Desert Country Club community, this restored 1950s Desert Ranch home offers a rare blend of architectural heritage, expansive grounds, and refined modern comfort.
Unlike attached condos, this is a detached mid-century residence set on nearly half an acre — surrounded by mature palms and citrus trees that create a secluded oasis just steps from premier amenities.
Architectural Character
Originally built during Palm Desert’s golden era, the home reflects the clean lines, natural light, and indoor-outdoor flow that define classic mid-century desert living. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its original character, the 2,200-square-foot residence blends modern interiors with timeless architectural elements.
Three bedrooms, curated design details, and seamless transitions between interior and exterior spaces create a refined yet relaxed desert retreat ideal for seasonal or extended stays.
Outdoor Living & Golf Course Views
The backyard opens directly to the golf course, offering uninterrupted fairway views framed by dramatic mountain silhouettes. A beautiful 9-foot-deep private pool anchors the outdoor living space, surrounded by layered landscaping and mature palms that provide exceptional privacy.
Multiple seating areas allow for morning coffee beneath citrus trees, afternoon swims under desert skies, and sunset dinners overlooking the greens.
This Palm Desert luxury rental offers both space and serenity — a rare combination within a country club setting.
Location & Recreation
Directly across the drive are pickleball courts, tennis courts, bocce ball, a clubhouse with fitness room, and a community pool and spa (membership required). The home’s location provides immediate access to recreation while preserving the privacy of a detached residence.
Enjoy nearby hiking trails, explore the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway approximately 25 minutes away, or spend the afternoon shopping and dining along El Paseo — just two miles from the home — known for its upscale boutiques, fine dining, and art galleries.
A Storied Past
Originally owned by a prominent Los Angeles physician, the home became known in the 1950s and 1960s for its legendary themed gatherings attended by notable figures from film and civic life — adding a subtle layer of history to this refined desert retreat.
