4 Br Private Vacation Home Vacation Rental In Palm Springs, California

Welcome to The Francis Alexander, a sun‑drenched mid‑century gem built in 1959 by the iconic Alexander Construction Company. With its classic post‑and‑beam architecture, rock fireplace, and vibrant vintage‑meets‑modern décor, this home captures the essence of Palm Springs living - colorful, stylish, and effortlessly relaxed.
Step inside and you're greeted by a bright, vintage‑inspired living room where mid‑century furnishings and playful accents blend beautifully against a full wall of glass overlooking the sparkling pool. This is the Palm Springs indoor‑outdoor lifestyle at its finest: sunshine pouring in, mountain air drifting through, and the backyard calling your name.

The open floor plan makes dining and entertaining a breeze. The fully renovated kitchen features new cabinetry, quartz countertops, modern appliances, a gorgeous backsplash, and a tiled accent wall. It's stocked with everything you need to prepare meals for the whole group, and just steps away sits the colorful dining area with seating for eight - perfect for lively dinners and long conversations.

Off the dining room, a second living area offers another inviting space to unwind. With its comfortable sofa, pass‑through fireplace, and curated décor, it's a cozy spot for morning coffee, afternoon lounging, or evening cocktails. Step outside to the patio and cool off under the misters, or float in the saltwater pool as the sun warms the desert sky. The eight‑foot‑deep pool features two in‑pool seats in the deep end and a full‑width shallow ledge - ideal for sunbathing or splashing with friends. When the day winds down, slip into the above‑ground hot tub and let the jets melt away every last bit of tension.

The home offers four comfortable bedrooms designed for restful nights after long days in the sun. The first guest bedroom sits just off the living room and features a queen bed, TV, and direct pool access. Three additional bedrooms are located on the opposite side of the house. Two guest rooms each include a queen bed, ceiling fan, TV, and ample storage, sharing a hallway bathroom with a shower‑tub combo. The primary bedroom features a king bed, ceiling fan, TV, en‑suite bathroom, and direct access to the pool - your own private retreat.

Outside, the backyard is pure Palm Springs paradise. The large saltwater pool is the centerpiece, surrounded by lounge seating, a natural‑gas BBQ for cookouts, and a fire pit with a spacious sectional for evening gatherings. Under the patio cover, you'll find a dining table perfect for alfresco meals and shaded relaxation. This is the kind of outdoor space that turns vacations into memories.

Located on a quiet street in Racquet Club Estates - one of Palm Springs' first and most iconic mid‑century neighborhoods - The Francis Alexander sits in a historic enclave once frequented by the Rat Pack and Hollywood's elite. You're just a mile and a half from Palm Canyon Drive, where boutique shops, restaurants, galleries, and museums await.

Timeless, colorful, and full of mid‑century soul, The Francis Alexander is the perfect home base for your next Palm Springs adventure.
