Back on Market now that the Massive Community Update is Almost Complete, and the Seller Paid the Full #119, 2025 & 2026 Building Assessment of $32,382! Welcome to Villa Alejo, an iconic mid-century gem designed by architect Donald Engen, located in the heart of downtown Palm Springs. Once a glamorous hotel that hosted Hollywood's elite in the 1960s, this beautifully updated 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom first-floor unit combines historic charm with modern convenience. Just seconds from downtown's top restaurants, boutique shopping, coffee shops, the casino, and the renowned Palm Springs Street Fair, this home offers an unbeatable location. Inside, the space has been thoughtfully upgraded with a modern kitchen featuring granite countertops with full backsplash and plenty of pantry storage, recessed lighting, crown molding, a dry bar with mini beverage fridge, and a stylish wood accent wall with electric fireplace and mounted tv in the living room. Luxury vinyl plank wood and tile flooring enhance the home's elegance, while a stackable washer/dryer and remodeled bathrooms add convenience. A stunning San Jacinto Mountain view from the kitchen and primary bedroom windows create the perfect scenic backdrop. Beyond the iconic staggered pipe brise-soleil (breeze block) breezeways that define Villa Alejo's distinctive architecture, this sought-after and stylish condo community offers resort-style amenities, including a heated in-ground pool and spa, a private gym and sauna, a community barbecue area, and a welcoming mid-century modern lobby with many of the original details. Additional perks include one assigned underground parking space, an extra storage unit, and guest parking. The HOA covers all ELECTRICITY (including A/C and heating!), WATER, TRASH, SEWER, PARKING, EARTHQUAKE INSURANCE, and ALL GROUNDS MAINTENANCE, making this an incredible value.
