About this property
Experience an exceptional piece of Palm Springs architectural history at Sagewood, designed by celebrated Desert Modernist architect Donald A. Wexler and now officially designated a Historic District by the City of Palm Springs. This beautifully updated three-bedroom, two-bath residence showcases Wexler's signature clean lines, deep sun-shading overhangs, and seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The historic designation may also provide an opportunity for potential property tax savings through the Mills Act, subject to eligibility and City approval. Offered furnished, the light-filled interior features hard-surface flooring throughout, an open kitchen, spacious living areas, and two private patios with lush landscaping and a tranquil water feature. Both bathrooms have been beautifully remodeled with low-maintenance Calcutta Marble-look acrylic showers, Moen fixtures, and glass enclosures--an investment of over $30,000. The third bedroom is currently enjoyed as a den and is equally suited as a home office or guest space. Expansive greenbelts, dramatic mountain views, three community pools and spas, and tennis courts complete Sagewood's serene desert setting. HOA dues include water, internet, cable TV with Paramount+ and Disney, plus roof and exterior building maintenance, excluding windows. A distinctive opportunity to enjoy the architectural legacy of Donald Wexler and the relaxed sophistication of life at historic Sagewood.
