ULTIMATE MIDCENTURY MODERN PIED-A-TERRE | WILLIAM F. CODY ARCHITECTURE | YOU OWN THE LAND | PRIVATE GARDEN & MOUNTAIN VIEWS | MOVE-IN READY rare opportunity to own a historically significant residence in the prestigious Racquet Club Cottages West (Garden Villas). Designed by world-renowned architect William F. Cody and developed by Paul Trousdale, this Class 1 Historic District property offers the ultimate Palm Springs luxury lifestyle for the sophisticated design enthusiast. UNRIVALED PRIVACY & OUTDOOR LIVING: Unit 220 is a "unicorn" studio within the complex, boasting an expansive, private back patio and landscaped garden (grandfathered-in) that no other studio offers. Enjoy breathtaking, panoramic San Jacinto Mountain views and a direct line of sight to the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. The wrap around outdoor space and lush tree canopy creates a secluded sanctuary perfect for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining under the desert stars. DESIGNER INTERIOR & LUXE UPGRADES: Architectural Pedigree: Classic post-and-beam construction with walls of glass and newer tempered sliders that dissolve the boundary between architecture and nature. Modernized Systems: High-efficiency HVAC (resealed 2021), 5-year-old water heater, and updated stainless appliances (refrigerator/dishwasher, about 4 years old). Spa-Inspired Bath: Fully remodeled with a private, dedicated sewer line (not shared) for peace of mind. Flexible Floor Plan: Thoughtfully expanded living area includes a high-quality Murphy Bed, creating a seamless, open-concept space for yoga, meditation, or a professional home office. PRESTIGIOUS GATED COMMUNITY & INVESTMENT: FEE LAND: You own the land. MILLS ACT: Eligible for massive property tax savings (potentially 30%70% off). SHORT-TERM RENTAL: Rare 14-day rental eligibility makes this a prime investment opportunity; the shorter minimum stay typically yields a much higher nightly rate and greater annual ROI than properties restricted to 30-day stays (Buyer to verify). RESORT AMENITIES: Iconic 9-foot-deep pool and spa (restored 2022), lush grounds by Phil Shipley, and historic stream features. HOA COVERS: Water, trash, roof, exterior maintenance, and full-time landscaping. LOCATION & LIFESTYLE: Boasting high walkability to the trendy Uptown Design District, you are steps from world-class fine dining, galleries, and boutiques. A perennial Modernism Week favorite and a true "collectible" property for the Atomic Ranch or Dwell reader. Includes assigned one covered carport parking (#12). PET FRIENDLY.
