Palm Springs Area Real Estate Offers Midcentury Modern Residences

Palm Springs, California -

California based agency Palm Springs Area Real Estate is reaching out to the wider community to share their range of mid-century modern homes. Palm Springs Area Real Estate is dedicated to helping people find their dream homes in Palm Springs and the surrounding area.

According to the agency, Palm Springs and the surrounding areas contain a good number of the country’s midcentury modern homes. Those who consider themselves a design aficionado will discover that the desert is a great place to take a step back into the 1960s. The real estate company comments that despite a rise in temperatures, the market for vintage properties in the Coachella Valley shows no signs of cooling.

The company points to the Sutter Residence as an example. The now classic residence, designed by E. Stewart Williams for Theodore and Marguerite Sutter, is now on the market for $2,795,000. The property was completed in 1960 and has an expansive size of 2,610 sq ft. The home embodies key tenets of mid-century modern design — including the extensive use of concrete block, glass, steel and teak.

Anyone entering the property does so through an elegantly designed stylish metal gate, which opens into a glass-enclosed courtyard. The interiors of the property were designed by Arthur Elrod, and they still remain intact, with a stunning kitchen cloaked in teak walls and flanked by a brick fireplace. Palm Springs Area Real Estate also points out that while outdoor pools are quite common among the residences of Palm Springs, the specimen in the Sutter Residence is certainly unique. The pool is surrounded by an outdoor structure of steel beams which allow the owner to shade the space more easily.

The revamped and renovated home, with all its mid century charms still intact, immediately appealed to buyers when it initially went on sale. It was only on the market for a couple of weeks before it came under contract. In 2010, the current owners managed to snatch this two-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home for just $640,000 — which represented a fairly dramatic cut from the original 2010 asking price of $695,000. From there, they embarked on extensive renovations, which included revamping the master suite. Now, the master bedroom features modern perks like heated floors and an open shower. For outdoor living and entertaining, there’s the aforementioned pool as well as an al fresco kitchen.
