Located in beautiful south Palms Springs, CA is this 1963
Palmer & Krisel-designed midcentury condominium in Canyon View Estates.
With two bedrooms and two bathrooms in 1,146 square feet, a one-car carport,
the asking price of this home is $319,000 with monthly HOA dues of $365.

| Front of home |
This west-facing condominium features some great midcentury
decorative cross screen block accents on the front of the home, along with a
widely spaced running bond pattern of blocks creating brilliant shadow reliefs
along the façade of the home. The western mountain views are cut off by a
neighboring three-story condominium building, but the quiet location and
proximity to the mountains still make this a dreamy location.

The entry of the home sits recessed from the façade amid
desert plantings, with a white escutcheoned front door leading into the home. The
living room features a tall vaulted ceiling, with south-facing clerestories
flooding the room with natural light. A large sliding glass door and fixed pane
window overlooks the east-facing patio and common greenbelt area.

The kitchen sits at the front of the unit, adjacent to the entry.
The raised-panel cabinetry appears to have been updated at some point within
the last 20 years, and the original white double oven has been retained amid
other, newer appliances. The kitchen provides a secondary access to the front
service porch allowing for alternative and convenient entry into the home.

The master bedroom sits at the rear of the unit, overlooking
the greenbelt and accessing the rear patio through a sliding glass door. The
second bedroom sits at the front of the home, overlooking the one-car carport.
Both bedrooms provide ample closet space, allowing for flexible storage
solutions. Both bathrooms have been updated over time, and while slightly dated
at this point, are clean and functional.

| Rear patio |
The east-facing patio overlooks the common greenbelt, while
the common area pool is located just to the north of the patio. The greenbelt
contains a mix of lush turf and desert plantings, giving the area a serene,
resort-like feel.
