Description

A REFINED CLASSIC 1955 ATOMIC RANCH! 275 Ridge Rd was home to Palm Springs celebrity photographer, Paul Pospesil from 1955 to 1999. This mid-century stunner is located in the highly coveted & historic Mesa neighborhood of south Palm Springs. Known as the Hollywood Hills of Palm Springs the Mesa has been home to celebrities past and present. Tucked away in the foothills of the San Jacinto Mts this hillside enclave enjoys shelter from the rushing wind and the blazing summer sun. The redesign of this mid-mod includes notable butterfly roofline to enhance & enlarge the stylish home. The timeless open plan design includes vaulted ceilings & lots of glass bringing the outdoors in and flooding the space with tons of natural light. A handsome stacked stone fireplace anchors this space. The adjacent open kitchen is sleek & contemporary in design with granite surfaces & stainless appliances including wine fridge & warming drawer. Fantastic outdoor entertaining space includes pool with waterfall feature & a complete outdoor kitchen! Third BR/BA is separate entrance casita! All new landscape with native plants & a hilltop dining gazebo with amazing up-close mountain views. The location of this home is stellar offering elevated views of the rugged beauty only found in the Mesa. The hidden secret under all this beauty is a vintage bomb shelter that once housed the photographers dark room. The space is enormous and possible uses are limited only by your imagination!
