The Space:

Escape to your own private paradise at our luxurious Mid Mod vacation home nestled in the sought-after Movie Colony East neighborhood of Palm Springs. This unique property, which was once home to Kirk Douglas and his young family, is designed to whisk you away from the stresses of everyday life and immerse you in a world of fun and relaxation.
Indoor living spaces*
This luxury home exudes modern elegance with curated artwork, chic furnishings, and a free-flowing floor plan that seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living. Multiple sliding glass doors flood the space with natural light, creating a bright and airy ambiance throughout.
Step into the living area and discover a space designed for comfort, style, and shared moments. Adorned with modern art accents and a glamorous fireplace, the plush seating arrangements provide ample room for your entire party to gather. Vibrant pops of color throughout the home ignite creativity and add a playful touch to the décor.
The living area flows seamlessly into the dining area and well-equipped kitchen, where you will find everything you need to whip up gourmet meals or enjoy a take-out meal from nearby restaurants.
Sleeping quarters*
All four bedrooms have been beautifully styled and feature a hotel-quality mattress, ample storage, flat screen TV’s and contemporary art.
The stunning Primary Bedroom has a King bed with an upholstered headboard, large walk-in closet and an en suite bath with a double sink, double shower, and soaking tub--complete with glamorous chandelier. This room also enjoys a beautiful view and direct access to the backyard.
Two Guest Rooms each have a Queen bed, plenty of storage and easy access to the guest bathroom in the hallway. Both Guest Rooms have modern desks and chairs—perfect for remote work or leisurely reading.

For those craving a little extra privacy (and direct access to the backyard and pool area), the attached Casita has a King bed, a large closet and en suite bathroom with a spa-like shower. 
Outdoor living spaces*
Step outside into the lush, South-facing backyard and be greeted by a breathtaking oasis, where an oversized pool with an integrated waterfall spa awaits. Recline on the chaise lounges under the warm California sun, take a refreshing dip in the brand new pool and spa and rinse off in the double outdoor shower.
Enjoy a game of pool or use the grassy backyard area for a game of corn hole, surrounded by the stunning backdrop of palm trees and mountain vistas. When it’s time to relax, patio sofas under the covered pavilion invite you to sink in and unwind.
Fire up the gas BBQ grill and gather around the table with friends and family for a memorable al fresco dining experience. As the night unfolds, enjoy the fire pit beneath the twinkling desert starlight, creating unforgettable memories in this magical setting.
