2432 Southridge Dr­Palm Springs, CA 92264 United States

Description:

At the top of the world, just below the clouds and amidst the ancient mountain peaks, Southridge is a view-laden Palm Springs legacy. This elevated enclave drew Steve McQueen, Bob Hope and William Holden with its big-sky panoramas around each bend. Since the 1960s, imaginative siting designed for privacy has inspired distinctive modern architecture. Each home behind the gates represents a rare address and a golden opportunity. Winding up past John Lautners Elrod House, this vast estate glamorously reimagined by designer Carleton Varney was featured in Architectural Digest. Floor-to-ceiling glass illuminates the evocative interior, beginning at the modernist, double-doored statement entrance. Its grand scale gleams with large-format marble and terrazzo floors. Unique spaces include a butler's pantry off the expansive kitchen, library and master bath atrium. Living and dining areas extend outdoors along the sculptural pool floating high above the city lights. A must-see Southridge gem.
