Ultra-Luxe Home with Private Pool, Accessible from Living Room!
The Morse House is a historic 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom estate in Palm Springs that boasts a mid-century modern interior and exterior—perfect for those who appreciate rich architecture and luxury living. Designed by renowned architects Dan Palmer and William Krisel, this impeccable home has a rich heritage, as it was later renovated by Hollywood architect Harold “Hal” Levitt. Located in the highly sought-after Vista Las Palmas neighborhood, it was the first to be designated a Class 1 Historic Site within the community—and even won the Palm Springs Preservation Award in 2018.
Freshly updated and fully restored, the past meets the present in The Morse House. A grand entryway opens to reveal an art-filled hallway that beckons guests to stop and admire before continuing into the bright and airy great room. The pièce de resistance is undoubtedly the retractable glass doors that seemingly vanish into the walls, giving friends and family direct access from the living area to the outdoor pool! Three remarkable bedrooms serve as a testament to this home’s undeniable comfort and elegance—each one boasting something different, including courtyard access, a deep whirlpool tub, and a full skylight over the walk-in shower. Discover lush, top-tier turf bordering the expansive backyard, complemented by an electric-shade covered patio, cozy firepit area, and relaxing sitting spa.
On-site parking in the garage and driveway makes it easy to explore the area, including local boutiques, high-end restaurants, popular nightclubs, and maybe even a trip to Joshua Tree National Park—less than 1 hour away.

A medical emergency had us leave the property without even staying a night. Property is retro and in good shape. Concierge that met us very nice.
