WHISPERING SANDS VILLAS is a mid-century modern complex in south Palm Desert. A quiet, gated community in which both buildings and landscape are very carefully maintained.

Unit #4 is the quintessential ''Palm Springs'' getaway. It features 9' high ceilings, 2 bedrooms/2 baths with skylights in both baths and clerestory windows in the kitchen and dining areas. The spacious living room has floor to ceiling sliding glass doors opening on to a front patio, with views of the courtyard and mountains. The primary bedroom also features floor to ceiling glass doors opening on to a private back patio, as well as two spacious closets and en-suite bathroom. This light and bright unit features exposed block walls - a mid-century feature - tiled floors throughout, newer kitchen appliances, a large walk-in shower, new in-suite laundry and a new A/C unit. Built by ''Lonesome George'' Gobel, it was a Hollywood hangout for his friends and family. A remarkable opportunity for a very discerning buyer!
