Price reduced! If you're looking for a move-in ready condo with urban sophistication and Palm Springs style, in an architecturally significant building, close to the action and natural beauty that defines Palm Springs, look no further. This is it! Perched above the glamorous pool and vibrant central courtyard, this bright and airy top-floor condo offers an envious location near the heart of the Village of Palm Springs and its Uptown Shopping District. So much to do and see, with scores of restaurants, trend-setting "watering holes", unique shopping opportunities, museums, entertainment venues, Francis Stevens Park, mountain hikes, and a wealth of other amenities, all within close proximity. And, after enjoying all that lies just beyond your front door, come back home and enjoy a picture- perfect poolside oasis! Villa Alejo was built in 1966 and is famous locally, and with mid-century modern aficionados worldwide for its masterfully articulated screen wall (or Brise soleil), which envelopes much of the building's front faade, punctuates side elevations, and provides architectural distinction as well as artful play with sun and shadow. Number 222 at Villa Alejo has two spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms and a generously proportioned kitchen and living area. It also offers the conveniences of a washer/dryer in the unit, a nicely-equipped dry bar for mixing thirst-quenching cocktails, a breakfast counter, and oodles of storage. The front balcony is a convenient spot to BBQ, or to enjoy drinks al-fresco. The orientation of the unit, along a north-south axis, yields highly desirable natural light from the south and north. The million dollar views to the south of the Santa Rosa Mountains are gorgeous. The condo, which is offered turn-key furnished per inventory list, is "move-in ready". Dual-pane windows throughout provide comfort and reduced energy demand. The homeowners dues include major utilities (water, electric, gas), in addition to common-area maintenance, including pool and spa. One parking spot is included in the secured subterranean parking garage, with additional parking located in a ground-level parking lot. Storage space, including for bikes is also included at the garage level. A small workout room is available to residents. The complex also has conveniently located elevators to help with the trip up to your unit from the parking garage, and other floor-to-floor travel.
