31 Palms: A Mid-Century Retreat in Central Palm Springs

If you’re looking to spend a month or more in Palm Springs to enjoy the warm, relaxing desert climate, this fully restored midcentury modern home is the perfect retreat. Located in the desirable Sunmor neighborhood less than two miles from the restaurants, shops, museums, and excitement of downtown, it’s situated on a corner lot and affords unobstructed views of the often snow-covered San Jacinto Mountains from its spacious, grassy backyard and large swimming pool. Lounge chairs, a nearly new Weber gas grill, vintage and modern patio furniture, citrus trees, and 31 majestic fan palms complete this outdoor escape.

Designed by the architectural team of Palmer & Krisel and built in 1958 by Alexander Construction, this home has been fully updated inside and tastefully decorated with a combination of vintage and modern furnishings. The open living space includes a cozy sitting area with a large flat screen television, a fully equipped kitchen that will please even serious cooks, and a dining area that can easily seat 8 or 10 people. Off the home’s main hallway are three bedrooms, including a master suite and adjacent bathroom with tub and shower, plus a second bathroom with a glass-enclosed stall shower, all newly updated and spotlessly clean.

This home is currently being offered for a minimum stay of 1 month and rent includes cable TV, internet, and all utilities except for gas to heat the pool, which is optional.
