Welcome to Janet's Hideaway! This mid-century "Modern" home has all the modern amenities you want for life in 2024 with the charm of old Palm Springs in everything that surrounds you. On a quiet cul-de-sac, Janet chose this house for its breathtaking mountain views and the spacious lot that offers multiple outdoor areas with a pool/spa and fire feature with ample sun, a covered outdoor area for dining alfresco, and even a bit of green grass for kicking off the shoes. And then there is the house!

The space
This fully renovated Krisel & Palmer-designed home was built by the Alexander Construction Co. as part of the Racquet Club Estates development completed in the late 1950s. The homes were built as vacation homes for Hollywood celebrities that frequented the Palm Springs Racquet Club, which is now long gone. The homes remain however and have been lovingly restored by enthusiasts and Janet's hideaway is a perfect example of this enthusiasm.

The home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms with a large open concept kitchen/dining/living area with abundant glass walls looking out to the sunny outdoor areas. Palm Springs life is all about taking advantage of the great weather we are fortunate to have most of the year, and this house does just that. With clerestory windows and multiple glass sliding doors that open to patio areas off the living area as well as all of the bedrooms.

The master bedroom has an ensuite bath and king bed with incredible views of the San Jacinto Mountains. Step out the slider right onto the pool deck and into the spa!

Two additional bedrooms feature queen beds and share a bathroom located off the hall. Both have sliding glass doors onto the pool deck and spa area.

In the open concept living room/dining/kitchen, you will find a comfortable living room with a gas fireplace, dining table, and counter space with seating. The kitchen is all new with modern appliances and everything you will need to cook meals while on your vacation. The glass sliders open out to the patio area with an outdoor dining table and BBQ grill.

You will also find a laundry room with a washer and dryer for your use.

Outside you will find a grassy area off the outside patio perfect for croquet, picnicking, or just laying in to watch the stars! Around the back of the home, you will find the new pool and spa as well as the fire-pit. There are multiple sun loungers available with umbrellas as well. You'll also find plenty of comfortable seating poolside and around the pool area.

Neighborhood highlights

The crown jewel of Palm Springs in its glory days was The Racquet Club. Built in 1934 by actors Charlie Farrell and Ralph Bellamy, it was a resort where A-list Hollywood celebrities like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Marilyn Monroe came to play tennis, socialize poolside while enjoying the privacy Palm Springs offered in a glamorous low-key setting. While The Racquet Club is history, you can find that vibe today, minus the celebs, in the surrounding Racquet Club Estates neighborhood.

Racquet Club Estates is an in-demand, Mid-Century Modern Palm Springs neighborhood, with a tight-knit community of owners - the Racquet Club Estates Neighborhood Organization (RCENO) - who are dedicated to preserving its architectural integrity. Explore the pristine residential stylings that defined the Palm Springs landscape in the early 60’s, returning it to its uber-cool modernism status today.

Originally built as second or vacation homes on expansive lots (some as large as 10,000 square feet), the homes at Racquet Club Estates were defined by the ease of indoor-outdoor living. Interior and exterior spaces flow seamlessly into one another, creating the perfect spot to linger from morning coffee to cocktail time. And as much of Racquet Club Estates’ outdoor space is dedicated to poolside entertaining, you can practically visualize a pitcher of margaritas chilling as the desert sun slips behind Mount San Jacinto.
