Description
Once the glamorous escape for legends like Frank Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe, Bob Hope, and Cary Grant, The Movie Colony, known affectionately as TMC, remains one of Palm Springs' most sophisticated, sought-after, and architecturally celebrated neighborhoods. Ideally situated just blocks from both the vibrant Design District and the heart of downtown, this exclusive enclave is prized for its rare combination of pedigree, privacy, and proximity. Lined with palm-shaded streets and iconic estates, TMC places you steps from Palm Springs' finest offerings in art, culture, cuisine, and wellness. Dine alfresco at several Michelin Star restaurants, sip espresso at local cafs overlooking the San Jacinto mountains, or explore the galleries and curated boutiques that define the Uptown aesthetic. Beyond the gates, enjoy access to Ruth Hardy Park, stylish wine bars, the Palm Springs Art Museum, the lively Street Art Fair, and more, all within a short stroll. For those who value heritage, design, and lifestyle, TMC delivers a living experience that is as exclusive as it is inspiring. This exceptional estate was crafted for seamless indoor-outdoor living, starting with a premium south-facing backyard that guarantees winter sunshine and showcases unobstructed Mt. San Jacinto views. The resort-style saline pool, elevated spa, and shaded alfresco dining patio are surrounded by lush landscaping, offering total privacy and tranquility. Inside, the formal living room features a sculptural fireplace and custom built-ins, flowing into a chic dining area and a bespoke wet bar. The show-stopping chef's kitchen centers around a French CornuF range, with high-end appliances, tailored cabinetry, and direct access to the outdoors through multiple sets of French and sliding doors. Four well-separated bedrooms ensure privacy and comfort. The luxe Primary Suite includes a 2nd fireplace, stunning views, spa-like bath, and a custom walk-in closet. The Junior Suite has its own entrance and office/lounge area, while the 3RD bedroom opens to the pool with a bath that also serves as a poolside powder. The 4TH bedroom, currently a media room, adds flexibility for guests or creative use. Additional highlights include an attached two-car garage, inside laundry room, a gated motor court, recently upgraded systems including a new roof. This property is also eligible for both short- and long-term vacation rentals, making it a smart investment in one of Palm Springs' most iconic neighborhoods. With around 170 homes only, TMC offers a discreet and tightly knit community, rich in history and wrapped in elegance. This is a rare opportunity to own a private resort in one of Palm Springs' most illustrious neighborhoods. YOU OWN THE LAND. NO HOA FEES. PROPERTY IS UNFURNISHED.
