Description

Designed by Rick Harrison AIA of Wexler/Harrison this mid-century modern compound is a substantial and rare offering located in sought after Old Las Palmas. The home is a true time capsule and one of the early projects by noted interior designer Arthur Elrod. Three floating Architectural Pottery planters and fiberglass privacy screens across the facade allude to the original and unique details to be found inside. This property is offered for sale now for only the second time since 1957. The glass walled Great Room joins two private wings and features expansive views to the outdoors. The pool is purposefully set on the diagonal to connect the indoor spaces to the gardens and mountains beyond. A recently built Guest House and Spa feels to have always been there and sports many design elements in harmony with the original house. The home also features a large outdoor dining area.
