Located in the Kings Point development in south Palm
Springs, California is this 1969 William Krisel, AIA-designed golf course
frontage home. Situated on the 1st fairway of the Indian Canyons
Golf Club, this 2,899 square-foot home includes three bedrooms, two and a half
bathrooms, a two car garage and an in-ground pool and spa with a near million
dollar asking price of $899,500 and monthly HOA fees of $502.

The exterior of the property is classic Kings Point, with
strong horizontal lines created through dramatic overhangs, deeply-scored
blockwork and varied flat rooflines. The small front yard is vintage Palm
Springs, with topiary shrubs, a lush green lawn and a maturing Canary Island
Date Palm.

The home is entered through a pair of bright orange double
doors which leads visitors alongside the sunken living room with original terrazzo
floors. Dramatic deep beams augmented with clerestory windows and a raised
ceiling adds volume to the space. Beyond the living room lies a secondary
informal seating area with the signature modernist Kings Point fireplace and
floor to ceiling windows and sliders overlooking the backyard.

The dining area sits adjacent to the informal sitting area,
overlooks the backyard and features a wall of mirrors reflecting views of the
outdoors. The kitchen is open to the dining area, and has been given a modern
makeover, with a sharp combination of white, stainless steel and glass-fronted
cabinetry. White composite counters and colorful mosaic backsplashes complete
the sleek modern look of the room.

bedrooms are located on the side of the home, are spacious in size and allow
lots of natural light to flow in through sliding glass doorways. The bathrooms have

The backyard contains a private pool, located steps away
from the master bedroom. Tiled in blue mosaics, the pool includes a raised spa
with plenty of seating. A small, low hedge allows for views out to the golf
course while allowing for privacy while in the pool. Just off the dining and
informal living area is a large, partially covered patio surrounded by a lush
turf area.
This classic midcentury William Krisel-designed home offers
lots of great details and thoughtful updates that respect the modernist roots
of the property. This home has great modernist lines and is truly an outstanding
property.
