3 BR Mid-Mod Home + Pool and Spa in South Palm Desert - Walkable to El Paseo!

Welcome to the Hugh Kaptur Hideaway! Nestled in a prime location just steps from El Paseo’s vibrant shopping and dining scene, this three-bedroom mid-century modern gem offers the perfect blend of vintage charm and modern luxury.

Originally designed in 1962 by renowned architect Hugh Kaptur, this post-and-beam beauty boasts a timeless appeal. Readers and art enthusiasts will find themselves right at home with books in every corner and popular works of art throughout. Step into a thoughtfully updated kitchen featuring top-of-the-line Bertazonni appliances seamlessly integrated into the original walnut cabinetry, preserving the home’s retro allure.

Two of the bedrooms open onto private side patios, blending indoor comfort and outdoor serenity. Storage space is generous with spacious closets in each bedroom, and the bathrooms have been tastefully renovated, showcasing contemporary fixtures from Hansgrohe, Dornbracht, and Duravit.

The outdoor space is a true entertainer’s paradise with plenty of seating, lounge areas, and amenities for everyone, not to mention the lush landscaping throughout the yard that makes you feel like you're in your very own private oasis. Relax under the shaded cabana while watching your favorite movies and shows on the flat-screen TV, or watch right from the pool! Challenge your guests to a game of ping pong and once you've built an appetite, enjoy the ultimate cooking experience on the Mont Alpi BBQ grill. There is even a powder room and separate outdoor shower for you to rinse off after a day of sun-soaked adventures.

The gated driveway ensures security and privacy, and electric vehicle drivers will be pleased to find an EV charger on-site for your convenience.

This home is centrally located, perfect for taking advantage of the many recreational activities available nearby, from hiking and cycling to horseback riding, golfing, tennis, and beyond.
