Palm Springs in the 1930s was a true paradise, a serene escape of Spanish revival homes, charming, hotels, and quaint cottages. It was a time when people came to Palm Springs for its renowned health benefits and where Hollywoods elite came to play. The hostess that catered to the stars was Ethel Strebe who owned the famous Doll House, where the stars like Marilyn, Frank and the Rat pack partied and played. This particular Old Las Palmas mini estate built in 1936, was the cherished home of Ethel Strebe. The architectural integrity of the home remains beautifully intact, with romantic arches and desert gardens that evoke the early California spirit. The current owners have thoughtfully blended this timeless character with modern comforts, creating an interior that honors the home's legacy while offering the luxurious amenities expected today.Old Las Palmas is known for some of the finest mature landscaping in the desert, giving the area a distinctive charm. This home flows effortlessly from the vaulted-ceiling living room with its cozy fireplace to the dining room and kitchen, all leading to an expansive south-facing backyard with sweeping mountain views. An inviting outdoor covered kitchen, complete with a TV and fireplace, complements the scene, along with multiple fire features, a fire pit, pool, spa, and hand-seeded aggregate concrete that enhance the natural beauty of the exterior spaces.
