This desirable and much sought after Mid-Century Alexander Co. home is offered Turnkey Furnished for immediate move-in and perfect Palm Springs living. Only a few blocks from the historic Riviera Hotel and all of the new offerings of uptown Palm Springs. Bring your toothbrush, desert casual wardrobe and start enjoying every aspect of desert living. Don't forget your swimsuit! Set up a convenient tour of your own right away.
Racquet Club Estates, located between N Indian Canyon Dr and N Palm Canyon Dr, is a mid-century and residential Palm Springs neighborhood with low-slung modernist homes and mountain-view streetscapes. The neighborhood reads as classic desert modern: breeze-block walls, clerestory windows, and carports set behind crisp landscaping. The character concentrates around the Palm Springs Visitor Center at N Palm Canyon Dr and E Tramview Rd, where design-minded stops and road-trip energy gather under the former Tramway Gas Station’s iconic roofline. The Palm Springs Air Museum and the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway add a sense of aviation-and-alpine contrast to the desert floor. Ruth Hardy Park brings open lawns and courts into the daily rhythm. Sunrises hit the San Jacinto range first, and evening walks track long, clean sightlines.
