Welcome to Poolside Gossip, a quintessential Palm Springs escape where history, design, and leisure converge. This walled and gated mid-century gem was showcased in the world-renowned Modernism Week 2025 Palm Springs Paradise Home Tour, serving as a celebration of desert style, bold design, and architectural heritage. Here, retro flair meets modern comfort in a vibrant getaway designed for relaxation, conversation, and memory-making.
This sophisticated residence features 3 bedrooms, 3 beds, and 2 bathrooms, comfortably accommodating up to 6 guests. The primary suite is a private retreat offering a king bed, TV, ensuite bath, and direct access to the patio for late-night stargazing. Two additional king bedrooms—one of which is convertible to twins—share a sleek hall bath featuring a walk-in rainhead shower. Each sleeping space is thoughtfully styled to balance comfort with vibrant retro flair.
Inside, bold pops of orange and blue bring 70s glam to life. The living room is anchored by marble floors, a sleek fireplace, and walls of glass that blur the lines between indoors and out. The space is adorned with Shag’s nod to the Kaufmann House, The Incognitos, and iconic Slim Aarons photography. A bright and modern kitchen features stainless steel appliances and a cheerful breakfast bar, while the adjacent dining area seats eight and flows seamlessly into the living room and patio.
The distinctive yellow front door opens to a private oasis framed by manicured lawns and lush hedges. At the center, a shimmering pool with an inset spa invites you to lounge in the sunshine, nap on the outdoor daybed, or gather around the fire feature for starlit evenings. Multiple patios, a gas grill, and alfresco dining for ten make it effortless to enjoy the desert lifestyle, all set against the backdrop of towering palms and the dramatic San Jacinto Mountains.
Nestled in the tranquil Oasis Del Sol neighborhood within the historic Desert Dorado development, this home was designed in the early 1970s by prolific architect Hugh Kaptur. Guests enjoy peace and privacy while remaining just minutes from downtown Palm Springs, the galleries and shops of Palm Canyon Drive, and hiking in the nearby canyons.
