*****************************************
Welcome to The House of the Golden Turtle! Situated on a quarter-acre lot, this serene estate provides an experience that’s equal parts luxury and playfulness. Build in 1977, the house was completely updated and furnished. As a newly renovated desert retreat, the house is a blend of modern architecture and contemporary design inspired by the vibrant colors and patterns found throughout the charming city of Palm Springs.
Natural light fills this home making it a bright, happy space. Hand-picked art including a quirky sculpture, a map of famous landmarks, and photos of local legends captured by world-renowned photographer Slim Aarons bring the art scene of the area to you. Take in the views of the Santa Rose mountains from the front yard and living room. With high vaulted ceilings, the main living area provides an open floorplan perfect for entertaining and creates a fabulous backdrop for a dinner party.
Outdoor Oasis:
Meet our mascot, Harold, the golden turtle who welcomes you to the sumptuous backyard. The property features lush landscaping and stunning views of the San Jacinto Mountains.
With a large private pool and spa, dining set, two striking black-and-white cabanas, and a fire pit area you’ll bask in the warm sunny skies, beautiful sunsets, and outdoor living Palm Springs has to offer. The backyard was designed with entertaining in mind and lots of seating so invite your family and friends to join you. Make use of the BBQ, fun pool floaties, and lawn games! Or keep this retreat a secret and enjoy the romantic views and starry skies… we won’t tell.
Amenities:
