Step into a rare blend of Mid-Century Modern elegance and Hollywood Regency glamour in this updated Palm Desert showpiece. Originally the model home for Highland Palms Estates--developed by Bud White and Syd Crossley and attributed to noted modernist architect Charles W. Doty--this architectural gem offers timeless design paired with today's luxury upgrades. The home features dual living areas flanking a beautifully appointed galley kitchen with Brazilian quartzite countertops, a bespoke marble-top bar, 3 bedrooms, and 2 designer-renovated bathrooms. Sophisticated finishes include oversized porcelain flooring throughout, fresh interior paint, and a cedar-lined primary closet. Major system upgrades provide comfort and peace of mind, including a newer 18 SEER HVAC system with prepaid maintenance through 2033, swamp cooler, water heater, upgraded irrigation, foam roof, tinted windows and Tesla charger. Beyond the private gated entry lies an exceptionally large backyard retreat. Enjoy an expansive covered terrace, dramatic Neoclassical/Hollywood Regency-inspired custom pool, outdoor shower, privacy hedges, fruit trees, herb gardens, and mountain views. The oversized 2-car garage and prime Palm Desert location--just minutes from premier shopping, dining, golf, and entertainment--complete this one-of-a-kind offering. Rare architectural pedigree, highly upgraded, and unforgettable outdoor spaces make this an exceptional opportunity in the heart of Palm Desert.
