FEE LAND. NO HOA. Set above the city in Palm Springs' sought-after Araby Cove, beneath Steve McQueen's former Rimcrest residence, this private hillside villa captures sweeping views across the valley, surrounding mountains, the tram, and distant wind fields. From sunrise to the last light over the desert, the outlook shifts constantly. At night, the city glows below while the hills behind remain quiet and protected. Just 10 minutes from Palm Springs International Airport, the home offers both privacy and immediate access to the best of Palm Springs. Approximately 3,453 square feet, the home offers five bedrooms and four baths with a floor plan designed for both daily living and entertaining. Grand arched entry doors open to formal living and dining spaces with vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, multiple fireplaces, stone and quartzite flooring, and a custom open staircase. French doors throughout connect the interior to expansive outdoor terraces, balconies, pool and spa areas, and multiple places to gather or retreat. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, stone counters, gas cooktop, double ovens, breakfast nook seating, and direct views to the garden and pool terrace. A nearby family room with built-in wine storage opens seamlessly to the outdoor entertaining areas and custom barbecue space. Two guest suites are located on the main level, while the upstairs primary suite occupies a private wing with cathedral ceilings, hardwood floors, a walk-in wardrobe, spa-style bath, and balcony overlooking the valley below. Two additional guest bedrooms complete the upper floor. The property has been extensively upgraded with integrated smart home systems including cameras, alarm, Wi-Fi-enabled lighting, smart locks, thermostats, pool controls, sprinklers, and LED lighting throughout. Additional improvements include upgraded pool equipment, fire suppression system, on-demand hot water, new window treatments, and fresh interior and exterior paint. Since the last sale, the current owners have added a 55 panel (17.04 kw) solar energy system and two Tesla backup batteries, effectively eliminating the home's electric bill. Privately positioned against the hillside yet only minutes from downtown Palm Springs, dining, shopping, and hiking trails, this is a rare offering in one of South Palm Springs' most established and luxurious enclaves.
