Description
Iconic Vista Las Palmas Mid-Century Fixer | Rare Folded Plate Roof | Exceptional View Lot An exceptionally rare opportunity to reimagine and restore a true architectural icon in the heart of Vista Las Palmas, Palm Springs' most celebrated mid-century enclave. Originally designed by Palmer & Krisel for the Alexander Construction Company, this residence is one of only four known homes remaining with the coveted Folded Plate roofline, making it a prized offering for collectors and design-forward buyers. Set on one of the best view lots in Vista Las Palmas, the home enjoys sweeping, unobstructed views of the San Jacinto Mountains. The iconic folded plate roof intentionally concealed from the street creates a dramatic architectural reveal as you enter the private courtyard, setting the stage for what lies beyond. The home is a fixer and presents a rare blank canvas with unlimited renovation potential. Clerestory windows with signature diamond detailing, clean architectural lines, and strong original bones provide the foundation for a world-class transformation. The owner has already begun the planning process for a complete renovation, and conceptual floor-plan possibilities are available for review, offering insight into the property's extraordinary potential. The expansive lot and orientation lend themselves beautifully to indoor-outdoor living, resort-style grounds, and a reimagined pool and entertaining areas all framed by dramatic mountain views. Whether restored, expanded, or reinterpreted with a modern lens, the possibilities are truly endless. Offered at a compelling value relative to finished homes in the neighborhood, this iconic property represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to create a bespoke architectural masterpiece in one of Palm Springs' most historically significant neighborhoods.
