California Retro, circa 1963 is a beautifully remodeled, midcentury vacation home on half an acre in South Palm Desert. This 4 bedroom, 4 bath, 3,200 square foot home captures the essence of desert modernism - with its iconic roofline, clerestory windows, open concept floorplan, walls of glass and designer furnishings. The resort style yard has a private pool and spa, custom firepit, outdoor kitchen, living and dining areas and mountain views. When you venture out, you're a mile from world class shopping and dining on El Paseo - it's the perfect desert getaway!

Walled and gated for privacy, the half acre yard features two different spaces to enjoy. The back yard has a gorgeous custom pool surrounded by luxury lounge chairs and umbrellas as well as a built in firepit. The covered outdoor living area has a sectional, overhead fans, and an outdoor dining table with seating for 8. The built-in BBQ island has bar stools for 3. The backyard retreat continues on the side yard, with more lounge and conservation areas, and a second outdoor dining table for 8. Swaying palms, olive trees, old growth cactus and breathtaking mountains add to the magic of this very special property.

The fabulous interior has a spacious open concept floor plan, soaring ceilings, fantastic light fixtures and walls of glass that look out to the poolside paradise. The living area has plenty of seating, TV, and a showpiece fireplace. The dining area has seating for 8 and a wet bar with wine fridge. The kitchen has modern appliances, and has also retained some of the originals for retro flair. The main house flows into a secondary suite with a full living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom.
