Live inside Palm Springs history. This owner's unit is exemplary of Mid-Century Modern designer Herbert Burns' work. With 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms this pied-a-terre is fit for entertaining in Desert style. Known as the "Master of Light," Burns included 10 sky domes and wall-to-wall windows for ultimate exposure to natural light throughout. Iconic touches such as the wet bar, massage room, in-wall radio, and flip-top scale in the primary bath take one back to a different time. A private front patio looks out onto the pool and spa. Unit also includes 2 uncovered parkings spaces in addition to a private garage. Just minutes from all downtown has to offer, it's no wonder this masterpiece was previously featured in Palm Springs Modernism Week tours.

About Historic Tennis
Club
Historic Tennis Club, located between South Palm Canyon Drive and the base of the San Jacinto Mountains, is a historic and resort-style Palm Springs neighborhood with midcentury-modern streetscapes and a canyon-edge setting. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Palm Canyon Drive corridor near Baristo Road, where sidewalk patios, galleries, and cocktail bars set a polished, late-day pace. The Historic Tennis Club anchors the area with courts and a classic clubhouse presence. Moorten Botanical Garden and Cactarium adds desert texture and a living-collection feel a short walk away. Spanish Revival and midcentury homes sit behind palms and low walls, with mountain views framing many blocks. Foot traffic flows toward downtown dining and design, while quieter lanes keep a private, tucked-away rhythm.
