Via Las Palmas - Elegance in Old Las Palmas!

CITY ID#:004373

Built as a winter retreat in 1948 and reimagined in 1961 by acclaimed Palm Springs interior designer Arthur Elrod, this Old Las Palmas home is private and peaceful, but within walking distance to restaurants and shops in the Uptown Design District and downtown.

Offering 4 beds, 4 baths, generous open living space, a salt-water pool and spa, this home still retains Elrod’s restrained elegant design, and is everything you need for your stay in Palm Springs.

The living room with open-beamed ceiling features multiple seating areas, a smart TV, and fireplace. A clever walnut bookcase separates an adjacent area offering a table for playing cards or games. The dining area, open to the living room, seats eight. There’s even a small desk in case you need to get some work done. A wall of glass and sliders look out to the pool & lawn and has the quintessential Palm Springs mountain view!

The expansive covered patio off the living area has a BBQ grill, outdoor dining table and lounge seating. The huge salt-water pool and spa face south, giving you sun all day long, and offering you the best spot to enjoy the breathtaking mountain views.

Back inside, the large kitchen is an incredible homage to midcentury design, complete with St. Charles ‘desert beige’ metal cabinets, but has been updated to offer you all the conveniences you need. You’ll find newer appliances, a 6-burner range with griddle, tons of counter-space, warming drawers, wine fridge, and multiple sinks.

In the guest wing, the separate den/media room is a perfect spot to unwind with a book or watch tv on the large Smart TV.

The large primary bedroom offers a king bed, a couch, and smart TV. A slider provides gorgeous views of and direct access to the pool and spa. The en-suite bath features a large vanity with period finishes, shower, and separate tub. You’ll also find a large dressing area and a huge walk-in closet (with its own AC!).

The second bedroom is just down the hall and features a king bed and small desk. The hall guest bath includes a tiled tub/shower combo and fun midcentury detail. The third bedroom is just off the kitchen and features a queen bed. This bedroom has an en-suite with walk-in shower and is across the house from the other bedrooms, offering a nice separation for privacy.

For the ultimate in comfort and privacy, walk out the back door and across a lovely private courtyard and you’ll find the attached casita. This bedroom features a king bed, loveseat, Smart TV, beverage fridge and en-suite with walk-in shower. This is the perfect location for your weekend guests while in residence for Season.

Via Las Palmas is part of Palm Springs history. You will love making it part of yours!

Wonderful stay in Old Las Palmas
We just LOVED this wonderful home in Old Las Palmas. Very large yet has an intimate feel. The beds were magnificent, we had everything we needed in the kitchen, beautiful pool and spa, spectacular view of the mountains, walking distance from downtown (but VERY quiet neighborhood). The house was built in the 40s and updated in the 60s so there is both a wonderful combination of old Hollywood and Mid-Century Modern. Palm Springs at its best.

Palm Springs Mid Century classic
This is a wonderful home with a great location in the Old Las Palmas area. Its a classic property, ideal for those who appreciate mid-century design and are willing to be gentle with its collection of furniture pieces and the original fixtures. Its also very private with lovely surprises like four lemon trees out front, a great spa, and wonderful views. We highly recommend this property.

My entire family loved this property! Beautifully decorated with many extras. The outdoor space is amazing with a pool and hot tub with gorgeous mountain views. Outdoor games(bags, pool basketball, floats)and indoor board games. Location is walking distance to downtown and hiking trails. The team at Altamira were very professional and helpful.

Great Base Camp
The property was as advertised--not super fancy but very comfortable. Pool area was excellent. 4 big bedrooms and 4 nice bathrooms. We had several work-from-home people and the place was large and well-laid out so we could all work in peace when necessary. Safe and secure. Cool outdoor patio. 2 washers and dryers. location let us walk to many fun spots. i recommend it for sure!

Beautiful Oasis in the Desert
Our family, including our 3 year old son, had a great time at the property. The backyard is large, peaceful, and relaxing - lots of green space and lawn in addition to a beautiful pool with mountain views. The house is spacious and well decorated. The kitchen is a bit dated but part of the house's charm is that, while modern, the style is vintage Palm Springs. Highly recommend.
