Blue Door at Indian Canyons – Mid-Century Retreat with Pool, Spa, Golf Course and Mountain Views
This beautifully updated midcentury villa (circa 1963) directly on the historic Indian Canyons North Course - the first 18-hole golf course in Palm Springs. The spectacular yard is on a quarter of an acre and features an in-ground pool with integrated spa, firepit lounge, built-in BBQ and a covered outdoor dining pavilion. Breathtaking views of the San Jacinto mountains. Fabulous open concept floor plan with moveable walls of glass, wet bar, gas fireplace, stunning chef's kitchen and four comfortable bedrooms. It's livable luxury - perfectly suited for relaxing in the Palm Springs sunshine!
This glamorously nostalgic yet very current vacation home looks as though it was ripped from the pages of Architectural Digest or Elle Decor. The high style mid-mod inspired furnishings reinterpret the iconic 1960s style without sacrificing comfort. The extensive remodel respects the architectural pedigree of the home while updating it for the way we live today - featuring high-speed internet, 5 flatscreen TVs with cable, gas fireplace, new kitchen and bathrooms, spacious sleeping quarters and moveable walls of glass that blur the lines between indoor and outdoor living in true Palm Springs style.
This magnificent property captures the magic of Southern California glamour. The backyard itself is spacious & well-planned, with lots of different gathering places to explore from morning to sunset. The sparkling pool & spa are at the center of the yard and surrounded by lounge chairs, seating & shade umbrellas. Resort-like amenities include a firepit lounge, covered outdoor dining pavilion & a built in BBQ grill. Towering palm trees, lush plantings & sweeping mountain views all add to the magic of this spectacular property.
The deluxe bedrooms have been beautifully styled and each feature a hotel-quality mattress, flatscreen TV & plenty of storage space. The Primary Suite has a King bed, sliding doors to the yard & en suite bath with outdoor access. The second Primary Suite, or the Casita has a private entrance from outside and showcases a King bed, fireplace, wet bar, sliding doors to the yard & en suite bath w/ soaking tub. The third Suite has 2 Queen beds, sliding doors to the yard & en suite bath. The final bedroom toward the front of the house features a King bed, television, comfortable furnishings, and has access to the hallway bathroom.
Originally built in the 1960s, Indian Canyons is a coveted neighborhood with deep midcentury roots & distinctive architecture. Well known architects like Palmer & Krisel & Donald Wexler erected structures here in the shadows of the San Jacinto mountains. The Canyon Country Club, now known as the Indian Canyons North Course, was the first 18-hole golf course in Palm Springs. Frank Sinatra bought his first desert home here in 1947 & the neighborhood has been the desert getaway for many celebrities including Walt Disney, Chuck Conners (“The Rifleman”), Don Adams (“Get Smart”) & Jerome Factor (Max Factor Cosmetics). Indian Canyons remains one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in Palm Springs - known for its estate-like properties & iconic architecture.
Tucked away in Indian Canyons - yet extremely close to the South Palm Springs Business District & the world famous Palm Canyon Drive! Restaurants, cafes, grocers, sandwich shops, ice cream parlors, coffee shops, bars & other neighborhood conveniences are all a stone's throw away. Fun spots such as Pho 533, Moorten Botanical Garden, Mr. Lyons, The Purple Room are all very close. This is the ideal location for those who want to be close to everything!

Spring "Break" :)
We love the Indian Canyons neighborhood location. This house was perfect for our group of 6 adults and two kids; plenty of space, all the necessities and GREAT property management communication. Super clean, great pool/spa outdoor area, the casita is very nice and easily accessed from the main home. Bedrooms, bathrooms all great; all the amenities. Quiet welcoming neighborhood, easy for good walks - on a golf course, easy access to town. 10/10 - There were two small issues inside the house, but the mgmt company addressed them quickly and to resolution !! We were all very happy!!

Fabulous home for 8 adults!
This home was an absolute delight! We were in town for a family reunion and loved the kitchen size and outside dining and seating areas to sit, relax, float in pool, soak in hot tub and tell stories, share memories and photos! The kitchen was beautifully equipped! Highly recommend!
