Property Description

Located in the prestigious Old Las Palmas neighborhood in the heart of Palm Springs, this remarkable desert estate blends classic Palm Springs glamour with modern luxury. Once owned by legendary actress and comedian Lily Tomlin, the ''Lily Pad'' carries a touch of Hollywood history within one of the city's most iconic celebrity enclaves. Originally built in 1952 and thoughtfully reimagined for modern living, the estate spans approximately 4,671 square feet on more than half an acre of lush, gated grounds. Inside, sunlit interiors unfold through expansive living and entertaining spaces offering an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and relaxed - quintessential Palm Springs glamour with a contemporary edge. This home features 4 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms and thoughtfully designed living spaces with rich travertine tile flooring that create an inviting yet sophisticated atmosphere throughout. The heart of the home has a beautifully appointed chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry and stainless-steel features that include countertops, backsplash and huge refrigerator/freezer. High-end appliances include 2 Meile dishwashers and Viking double oven & gas cooktop. There is a seamless flow between the great room & family room, both designed for effortless entertaining, showcasing two of the home's five fireplaces, a stylish wet bar, and Fleetwood sliding doors opening to the spectacular resort-style backyard. The home's four bedrooms include a luxurious ensuite primary offering a serene private escape, complete with a cozy fireplace, elegant custom drapery, and direct access to the backyard. Two other ensuite guest bedrooms, thoughtfully separated from the primary bedroom, offer guests their own private living space. Adding to the compound's appeal, the estate was expanded with the construction of a nearly 1,000-square-foot guest house, complete with its own living area with fireplace, spacious bedroom suite and dramatic views of the surrounding desert mountains. Lily Pad's outdoor space reveals the estate's true magic. The resort-style grounds are centered around a custom pool and spa, with shaded lounge areas, a beautiful natural stone fireplace, outdoor kitchen, pool bathroom, and iconic desert mountain views. Towering palms and manicured landscaping evoke the golden age of Hollywood retreats. This exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Palm Springs' storied past while enjoying the comfort and elegance of a fully reimagined desert estate.
