The Elrod Villa, located at the historic Palm Springs Racquet Club was the playground to Hollywood’s most glamorous celebrities. Originally designed by Hal Broderick of Arthur Elrod and Associates, this masterpiece of mid-century design has been toured by The Smithsonian Institute, The L.A. Museum of Contemporary Art and featured in Architectural Digest (September/October 1975). Elrod Villa is a registered Palm Springs vacation rental: The City of Palm Springs ID #1234. The living and dining rooms set the stage for elegant entertaining with soaring ceilings, extensive use of indirect lighting, fireplace, bar, and Italian travertine flooring that extend to the outdoors. Walls of glass overlook the terrace with a luxurious tiled pool, oversized spa and dramatic panoramic views of the San Jacinto mountains. Space-age bachelor pad details abound with immense steel doors, a mirrored powder room, wet bar, retro-futuristic lighting control panels (including one hidden beside the master bed) and a thumping whole-house audio system cleverly concealed in gorgeous, custom hardwood cabinets. The residence offers 2,400 square feet of living space, including two bedrooms and a spacious den (or third bedroom). Conveniently located within minutes of downtown restaurants, shopping and nightlife.
