Description
THE VIEW IS PART OF THE DESIGN. Arrive at Flor Circle and the San Jacinto Mountains become the backdrop. This coveted cul-de-sac end-unit position in Canyon View Estates takes full advantage of its orientation, framing mountain views through the home and across the patio. From morning coffee to evening cocktails, the mountain isn't simply something you see -- it's part of how you experience your home. DESERT MODERNISM, PRESERVED AND REIMAGINED. Designed by William Krisel and Dan Palmer, the home reflects the ideas that made Canyon View Estates an enduring expression of Palm Springs modernism: clerestory windows, exposed beams, architectural block, broad expanses of glass, and an easy relationship between indoors and out. A comprehensive renovation was conceived as an unusually deliberate reinterpretation of the original architecture for modern living. Terrazzo tile and cork flooring, contemporary cabinetry, quartz surfaces, integrated lighting, and a reimagined kitchen and baths respond to the original architectural design rather than simply modernizing it. EVERY ROOM, EVERY DAY. Ask the owner to name a favorite room and the answer is simple: "All of them. I use every single one, every single day." The generous great room is made for gathering, the kitchen connects naturally to the living spaces, and a flexible third bedroom/den can become an office, media room, or guest space. The bedroom wing provides separation and privacy. Nearly everything leads your eye outside -- a reminder that a floor plan designed for easy desert living in 1963 remains remarkably relevant today. THE PATIO IS A ROOM, TOO. Step through the great room onto the southwest-facing patio and the rhythm of the day becomes easy to imagine. Breakfast with the mountains. An afternoon with a book in the lounger. Cocktails with friends and neighbors. Dinner as the sun begins to disappear behind the San Jacintos. And when the evening calls for something more social, the beautifully rebuilt community pool and spa are just steps away for a swim under the stars in the clear desert sky. YOU'RE NOT JUST BUYING A HOUSE; YOU'RE BUYING A NEIGHBORHOOD. Live in Canyon View Estates, where you know your neighbors by name. Community gatherings on the lawn, monthly happy hours, Modernism Week events, and impromptu conversations by the pool are part of life here. That sense of stewardship extends to the HOA itself, with significant recent community investments including approximately $200,000 in the rebuilt pool, spa and surrounding landscape and approximately $60,000 in new water mains. It's an architectural community that continues to invest in both its physical legacy and its social fabric. THOUGHTFULLY UPDATED, INSIDE AND OUT. The architectural renovation is supported by substantial system improvements that make your home more comfortable and easy to own, including HVAC and water heater replacement, roof work, landscaping, exterior maintenance, and whole-home water filtration. The result is a home that honors its 1963 origins without asking its next owner to live in 1963. SOUTH PALM SPRINGS, NATURALLY. You're in one of Palm Springs' most desirable settings, close to hiking trails, golf, Smoke Tree shopping and dining, and just minutes from downtown. Yet Flor Circle feels distinctly removed from it alla quiet architectural enclave where mountains, modernism, landscape and community come together. This particular home, in this particular position, in this particular neighborhood creates something that specifications alone can't capture: a way of living that is distinctly Canyon View Estates.
