An Updated Palm Springs Estate Lists For $2.4M

Located on one of the most coveted streets in Old Las Palmas, this renovated Palm Springs estate is a study in indoor/outdoor desert living.

Published by

Originally built in 1940, the 3,260-square-foot home has undergone a complete redesign, reimagining the property as a midcentury-inspired, contemporary estate. The renovation of the four-bedroom, five-bath residence also included the addition of an entirely new wing. 

Highlights of the home include an open indoor/outdoor floor-plan, a vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling in the great room, expansive glazing, and gorgeous desert landscaping across the 16,000-square-foot lot. 

The home sits on a 16,000-square-foot lot which has been beautifully landscaped with rows of cacti and palm trees.

The iconic home also comes with a bit of local history, as it was previously owned by Florian Boyd, the former Mayor of Palm Springs from 1953 to 1957. Now, this lovely desert oasis is on the market for $2,395,000.

The property's former Spanish hacienda-style, red-tile roof has been replaced with a contemporary metal one as part of the renovation.

Knoll Krusin Coffee Table

After earning a degree in furniture design from Leeds Metropolitan University in England, Marc Krusin cofounded the design group Codice 31 and has collaborated with Piero Lissoni, Kartell, Flos and Knoll.

The strong geometry of this piece is softened with radius and chamfer details. Suitable for residential or commercial use. Made in U.S.A.

Hawkins New York Icelandic Sheepskin

I love ewe. We love these fluffy, natural Icelandic sheepskins draped over a dining room chair or small bench as much as we do thrown over the couch, or even on the floor for a makeshift rug (and eternally toasty toes).This sheepskin comes from a small farm in Iceland, who have been harvesting wool for decades, where the sheep are raised humanely, have a high quality of life, and graze freely. This particular breed of sheep have been roaming Iceland since 897, when the Vikings first came to the island—that year is stamped on the back of each sheepskin. All the skins are processed in an eco-friendly way, using only geothermal power (produced by the Earth’s internal heat). The extra shaggy snugglers are available in a wintry white or a dramatic black. Prepare for all the warm fuzzies. Made in: IcelandMade of: Natural Icelandic sheepskin Size: Approximately 43.5” L x 27.5” W. Because this is a natural material, size will vary.
