About this property
Luxury estate home in historic celebrity enclave
When a trip to Puerto Vallarta is not in the cards, Talavera - Palm Springs will simply have to do. Enjoy historic Spanish Mediterranean charm in a completely contemporary, state-of-the-art home surrounded by estates formerly owned by Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, and many more Hollywood stars who once sought the same peace and solitude that you desire while on vacation, or working remotely.
Talavera takes its name from the vibrantly painted pottery so prevalent in Mexico which you will find abundantly throughout the property. Mix that up with some exquisite antique Asian and First Nations native artwork and you will know that you are enjoying a truly Pacific Rim experience in the Desert.
A multitude of amenities and luxuries that you will soon discover (sorry, the property is not for sale.):
Master Suite with a Tempurpedic California King bed, substantial fireplace, desk, satellite-accessible television, gigantic en-suite bath, and private access.
Library Suite with queen bed, private living room, desk, high-speed internet, satellite-accessible television, en-suite bath, and private access.
Guest Suite with a four-post Tempurpedic queen bed, satellite-accessiblle television, en-suite bath, and private access.
A truly GREAT Room including a chef’s-envy gourmet kitchen (Bosch, Sub-Zero, and Wolf appliances), Thermador convection oven, wet bar, spacious Restoration Hardware dining and living areas, exquisite hand-carved millwork throughout, substantial fireplace, satellite-accessible television, and a wall of sliding glass doors that opens out to the pool area.
Completely walled-in compound assuring total privacy on all four sides, including 40’ salt-water pool and spa, quiet sitting areas throughout the grounds, outdoor dining, gourmet gas-fueled BBQ, and a wood-burning chiminea
Breathtaking views of the San Jacinto Mountain range that feels literally within arms reach.
Half-block stroll to Ruth Hardy Park in the heart of the historic Movie Colony including tennis courts, picnic areas, kids playground, and a wellness garden.
A 15-20 minute stroll puts you squarely in the Uptown District of Palm Springs where you will find some of our most popular fine dining as well as upscale shopping including the eponymous Trina Turk and Wil Stiles boutiques.
