Property Description
Tucked away on a private cul-de-sac in Racquet Club Estates, this iconic midcentury home was designed by architects Dan Palmer and William Krisel and built by the Alexander Construction Company. Hand-selected by Steve McQueen as his personal desert retreat, the property sits on one of the neighborhood's premier lots, offering dramatic San Jacinto views and exceptional privacy.McQueen's custom-designed, south-facing pool is ideal for swimming laps or diving from the board. Two conversation areas are integrated into the expansive wrap-around yard, surrounded by mature trees and a citrus grove planted by McQueen himself, perfect for entertaining or quiet relaxation.The white stone facade opens into a sleek, all-white interior where European minimalism meets classic post-and-beam design. Original features include perforated ceiling tiles, a floating inset fireplace, and walls of glass that connect indoor spaces to the outdoors. The open kitchen is outfitted with marble-topped Pierre Cardin cabinetry with matching bar and a Wolf range.This is the very home where Life magazine photographed McQueen in 1963, lounging poolside and slow dancing in the living room. A rare chance to own a true piece of Palm Springs history -- boldly stylish and effortlessly timeless. All key systems have been recently updated.
