1948 Trousdale! Tucked away on a quiet stretch of San Lorenzo Drive in Tahquitz River Estates, this classic mid-century home by celebrated architect Paul Trousdale captures the best of Palm Springs living. Framed by tall palms and featuring refreshed landscape design, this home offers striking curb appeal and a welcoming vibe. Signature "Brise Soleil" sun breakers line the front, a nod to its modernist roots. Ideally oriented for all-day sun and privacy, the south-facing backyard boasts dramatic mountain views, a sparkling kidney-shaped pool, an artist's studio, fire pit, and outdoor shower. Enjoy a great mix of indoor and outdoor conversation areas perfect for relaxing or entertaining. French doors connect the living and dining areas to the patios with ease. Beamed ceilings, Italian tile, and a gas fireplace add warmth and charm. The bright kitchen includes a breakfast area and garden views. The primary suite has double-door entry, pool access, and an updated bath. Guest Bedroom Two is located off the central hall, while Bedroom Three is currently used as a den. A large family room with built-in bar and full bath serves as Bedroom Four. A generous utility room sits just off the kitchen. Tahquitz River Estates is known for its walkable streets, iconic architecture, and strong community spirit. TRENO, the neighborhood's active homeowners' group, hosts regular events and fosters a real sense of connection, just minutes from downtown Palm Springs. Take the Matterport Virtual Tour to experience the flow. This is a rare find.
