About 575 S Calle Ajo Unit 1
Built in 1936, this Spanish Colonial Style Ranch carries a rich and colorful history that captures the spirit of old Palm Springs. Once known as Casita de Sueos, it served as a Hollywood-inspired haven for the Los Compadres riding club and a lively... meeting place for the cowboy culture of the 1930s. Horses from the famed El Mirador and The Desert Inn hotels once roamed here, and in later years, the property housed horses for the Palm Springs Police Department. During the mid-century era, it became a creative refuge for artists, including local surrealist painter Snake Jagger, and was beloved by the desert's thriving artistic community of the 1960s and 1970s. Set within a private gated enclave surrounded by stunning landscaping, this upper residence spans 1,278 square feet and offers two bedrooms and one bath. The home has been beautifully remodeled to blend timeless design with modern comfort, featuring new mini split systems throughout for personalized heating and cooling. Inside, natural light pours through large windows, framing picturesque mountain views and lush greenery. The kitchen is a thoughtful blend of character and function, featuring butcher block counters, glass-front cabinetry, and warm textures that echo the home's Spanish heritage. French doors open to a private terrace, where you can enjoy morning coffee or unwind beneath the palms as the sun sets behind the San Jacinto mountains. The grounds surrounding the home are truly extraordinary, lovingly curated by an owner with a passion for the desert landscape. Mature palms, flowering plants, and winding stone pathways create a setting that feels both peaceful and alive. The gardens are a living work of art, offering the perfect balance between serenity and vibrancy. Available furnished or unfurnished, this residence embodies everything that makes Palm Springs special: a timeless sense of style, rich history, and an intimate connection to the beauty of the desert.
