Between 1955 and 1965, the acclaimed Alexander Construction Company built over 2,200 houses throughout California's Coachella Valley, doubling the size of Palm Springs and cementing its reputation as an enclave of midcentury-modern architecture. Nowadays, these homes, collectively referred to as Alexanders, are celebrated for their modernist style and innovative construction—and, not surprisingly, highly sought after.

Sprawling across 2,098 square feet, the historic home features an open floor plan with the living room, kitchen, and dining area all seamlessly connected.
