Crafted by Donald Wexler, renowned as the pioneer of "desert modern" architecture, Casa Tranquillo, once spotlighted on HGTV, is nestled at the foot of the San Jacinto mountains in The Mesa, a historic enclave merely 5 minutes from downtown Palm Springs. Embodying Wexler's iconic butterfly roof design, the residence's pool mirrors this distinctive architectural feature.
Enhanced by towering palm trees, a ficus privacy barrier, and a verdant side lawn graced by a lemon tree, this recently refurbished abode retains Wexler's design ethos while incorporating contemporary touches such as sunbathing ledges and water accents in the pool.
The extensive backyard, featuring a hot tub, fire pit, and a 6-seat dining setup complemented by a BBQ grill, is perfectly suited for intimate gatherings. Meander along flagstone patios, bask in the renowned Palm Springs sunshine on plush lounge chairs, or savor a beverage at the shaded patio table while relishing close-up vistas of the mountains.
Indoors, discover quintessential mid-century design elements like travertine floors and an illuminated opaque glass partition. In the unique sunken living area, unwind on one of two sectional sofas adjacent to a sizable TV and a welcoming fireplace. Another sectional and coffee table in a separate sunken sitting space provide a tranquil spot for cocktails or leisurely perusal of magazines. The blend of exposed stone and glass walls seamlessly blurs the lines between indoor and outdoor living.
For formal dining affairs, accommodate up to 10 guests at the elegant dining table, set against an inspiring backdrop of blown glass vases. Adjacent lies the gourmet kitchen, seamlessly blending modern amenities with mid-century charm, boasting hardwood cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and four swivel chairs for relaxed mornings over coffee.
An authentic representation of mid-century modern style, perfectly situated in a central location, providing guests with a unique opportunity to experience the iconic Palm Springs architecture while enjoying easy access to the city's vibrant culture and recreational offerings.
