Description

Welcome to Sunburst Palms, a legacy tour stop of Modernism Week in Palm Springs in the historic neighborhood of Deepwell Estates. Designed by master architect Lawrence Lapham, the house has been painstakingly remodeled to preserve its original character while incorporating modern conveniences. At nearly 3000 square feet, this spacious home has been featured in photo essays in Conde Nast Traveler, Modernism Week, Travel and Leisure and it will soon appear in Preservation Magazine. Cheery and brightly decorated, the house was originally built for the Academy Award winning composer Bud Fuhrer in 1956. Now, for the first time in seventy years, Sunburst Palms is available for your stay in Palm Springs.

Guests will enjoy a classic, kidney bean-shaped pool with its original rock fountain in a very private yard that features a gas grill, chaise lounge chairs and a patio with an outdoor living area. A second seating area is just off the patio with outdoor dining with seating for 6 that can accommodate 8 with folding chairs from the garage. The backyard features stunning views of Deepwell's palm trees that sway and sparkle against the dramatic backdrop of the San Jacinto Mountains. The patio areas are warmed by state-of-the-art built-in heaters for the cooler months and cooled in the hot months by misting machines.

The house offers three bedrooms and four en suite bathrooms, including one for the media room, as well as an additional powder room for five bathrooms in total. Large floor-to-ceiling windows have spectacular views of the pool and palm trees and bring the sunlight inside. Each bedroom is beautifully appointed and all have electronic blinds to keep out the morning sun. The master bedroom features a king bed, a private bath with shower, a comfortable sitting area, a wall-mounted flat screen television, a spacious walk-in closet and access to the pool. Two guest bedrooms each have queen beds, wall-mounted flat screens and en suite baths with showers. The media room/t.v. den has an 76 inch flat screen television, a private bath with a shower and a sleeper sofa for two.

A gorgeous living room features two comfortable seating areas. The first includes the original sofa designed for the home, faithfully restored, that faces a unique Tarazzo fire pit coffee table. The second seating area features a Smart TV and a baby grand piano that is kept in tune. The sunny kitchen features high end stainless steel appliances, plentiful counter space, a breakfast bar that seats three and a dining area that seats six. The kitchen is well equipped with an abundance of cabinet space.

The neighborhood of Deepwell Estates is rich with Hollywood history and some of its homes were owned by Elizabeth Taylor, Liberace, Hugh Hefner, and Jerry Lewis just to name a few. Only a short walk away is the newly established Prescott Preserve with miles of walking paths that offer magnificent mountain views. Just a few minutes away is the heart of downtown Palm Springs with its nightlife, popular restaurants and excellent shopping.

This home with its unique architectural features and upscale furnishings is not recommended for families with young children. Sorry to say we cannot allow cats, but we will consider one, possibly two dogs that are well behaved, flea free, housebroken and quiet -- let's discuss.

With its Modernist heritage and dramatic, unobstructed views of the mountains, Sunburst Palms is the quintessential Palm Springs experience.
