Overview

This standalone unit in Park Imperial South, a 3.5 acre resort community built in 1961 in the coveted south end of Palm Springs, is an excellent example of well-preserved mid-century modern design and one of the few three bedroom units in the complex. Architect Barry Berkus, apprentice of William Cody and student of Richard Neutra and Conrad Buff at USC, designed the desert community. It's best known for its folded plate roofs and decorative concrete block - both of which dynamically maneuver the desert light throughout the day. The 30 unit community features garden-like grounds with mature palm and olive trees, all oriented around a large pool and spa with unobstructed views of the San Jacinto Mountains. The property, which is likely Mills Act eligible, was considered the first All-General Electric Gold Medallion Condominium home in America. This well-positioned unit feels like a single family home with its entrance at the end of a rolling lawn on the public street and shares no walls with other units. Inside, the entry space looks past the original concrete block bar, through the voluminous living room to the private walled courtyard patio beyond. Floor to ceiling glass connects the social spaces to the spacious patio, which features a gate with easy access to the pool just steps away. Behind the bar, the updated kitchen features its original, iconic turquoise steel range hood and stove. Adjacent to the kitchen is a laundry nook. A door leads to the private bedroom wing. Two bedrooms front the private patio, and the en suite primary bedroom features high clerestory windows with mountain views. Both bathrooms have been thoughtfully renovated. The unit comes with one nearby carport space. This updated home will allow you to enjoy a piece of modernist history as well as the best of current day Palm Springs and the opportunity for significant tax savings.
