Discover a rare architectural retreat by noted architect Charles L. Martin, offering privacy, panoramic mountain views, and exceptional efficiency just moments from El Paseo. Set on a nearly half an acre lot, this historically significant 2-bedroom, 3-bath home with den/TV room and bonus room with Murphy bed lives as a refined yet playful desert escape. Dramatic ceilings and custom window geometry flood the interiors with natural light while maintaining comfort from morning through evening. Major upgrades respect the home's mid-century modern character, including new Fleetwood sliders, dual-pane low-e windows, and a louvered entry skylight, along with a freshly repainted exterior. A standout feature is the Tesla Solar Roof with two Powerwall batteries, delivering substantial energy savings and dependable backup power, a true advantage in the desert climate. Outdoors, a saltwater pool and spa with both heating and cooling anchor a secluded oasis framed by mature landscaping and a citrus grove. Inside, the updated kitchen features new counters, backsplash, sink, fixtures, lighting, and a Thermador induction cooktop. The media room is designed for immersive viewing with a 100'' LG laser projector, motorized screen, and 8-speaker Dolby Atmos sound. The spacious primary suite offers a walk-in closet, double vanities, and a spa-like wet room with large walk-in shower and soaking tub. Guests enjoy a private suite of their own, while the versatile bonus room with Murphy bed and storage flexes easily as guest quarters, fitness area, or studio. Practical amenities include an extended driveway with generous parking, two-car garage plus golf cart/RV parking, and light-touch smart-home features: automated shades, app-controlled pool system, and integrated climate and security. With no HOA and a premier South Palm Desert location, this exceptional property blends timeless design, energy-smart innovation, and true privacy for effortless desert living.
