Before Palm Springs became iconic, celebrated architect William F. Cody designed this steel-framed modernist gem as his personal family residence. Wrapped in glass and filled with light, the home is a bold statement of postwar design, with gardens, patios, and a private atrium that seamlessly blur indoor and outdoor living. Set on a 13,500+ sq ft lot in Desert Park Estates, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath single-level home spans over 3,000 sq ft and features iconic post-and-beam construction, 4” clean rooflines, and layered architectural views through brick, steel, and glass. The thoughtful design uses ceiling heights to create a dynamic yet calming sense of space. Recently featured in Palm Springs Life and international design publications, the home includes a detached casita, multiple en-suite bedrooms, and an office for flexible living. Recent upgrades include a new HVAC system, roof refinishing, full interior/exterior paint, updated pool equipment, and an IPE accent wall in the courtyard. Plans for a new pool design are also in place. This is a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Palm Springs history, designed by one of the city’s most iconic architectural voices. Located just minutes from downtown, with easy access to shopping, dining, and cultural attractions, 1950 E Desert Palms Drive offers timeless design and resort-style living in one of Palm Springs’ most desirable neighborhoods.
