About this property

Mid-Century View Condo in Historic Rimcrest

Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of Palm Springs and the Coachella Valley from this coveted unit in the iconic Rimcrest condominium community. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the primary bedroom, dining, and living areas provide a stunning backdrop of snow-capped mountains and palm-dotted vistas. Enjoy the mesmerizing sight of airplanes gently taking off and landing from the privacy of this freestanding unit, which shares no walls with neighboring homes. There are two sparkling community pools and four inviting spas, nestled in a serene setting designed by renowned architects Harold A. Carlson and Leroy Rose in 1967.

Located near the scenic Araby Trail, the property is perfect for hikes leading up to the exclusive Southridge neighborhood, with spectacular views of the famous Bob Hope House, a masterpiece by architect John Lautner.

Inside, you’ll find a spacious, open-concept living area with a 65” flatscreen TV and complimentary Wi-Fi, along with convenient interior laundry. The primary bedroom opens directly to the deck/lanai, providing sweeping views and ultimate comfort, including a California king bed, 43” flatscreen TV, automated window shades, a large wall closet, and a built-in dresser. The ensuite bath features a walk-in shower, dual vanities, and a luxurious soaking tub for relaxation.

THINGS TO KNOW
No smoking or vaping in the unit or on the front patio or back deck/lanai.

No pets allowed.

Adults over the age of 25 only.

There is 1 assigned parking space and available guest parking. Rimcrest is a unique property built into the hillside (thus the phenomenal views) and many of the residences are not parking adjacent. There are 38 stairs between the parking area and the entrance to the unit, but are best described as a terraced pathway with steps with a gradual incline/decline. There are approximately 30 traditional stairs to the common pool/spa area.

Please note that the pool directly below the unit is not heated this season (2024-2025) but the 2nd pool near the parking area is heated. Hot tubs at both locations are heated.

Just 4 miles from downtown Palm Springs, you’ll be close to a vibrant scene of restaurants, coffee shops, nightlife, and museums, ensuring that your stay offers both tranquility and entertainment.

Southridge Paradise!

Ideally located on a private road, this property offers breathtaking views and easy access to downtown Palm Springs and nearby hiking trails. The spacious accommodations feature elegant furnishings, a fully stocked kitchen, well-appointed bathrooms and bedrooms, an in-unit washer and dryer, and balcony access from both the master bedroom and dining area. The host is exceptional!

A Wonderful Stay at a Beautiful Property

On several of our previous year visits to Palm Springs, my wife and I always admired the Rimcrest complex nestled on the hillside of the Araby Cove area mentioning to each other “wouldn’t it be fantastic to stay there on our next visit?” … that “next visit” happened this February and to say that our stay was “fantastic” would be an understatement! We enjoyed and truly relaxed in a property which was perfectly and beautifully furnished (exactly as portrayed in the photos which accompanied the listing) and which offered every essential (and beyond) amenity which we could have imagined. Palm Springs architecture at its finest, a residence very tastefully furnished/outfitted/supplied, indoor and outdoor living spaces, proximity to several pools/hot tubs, an owner who is very proud of his property and very responsive to his tenants certainly made our stay a wonderful experience. I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the view … you get to enjoy your days/evenings in downtown PS and then to retire to your vacation home and take in the sights of everything from San Gorgornio Mountain and Desert Hot Springs to (nearly) the Salton Sea and everything in between - a viewing treat either day or night! We cannot recommend this property highly enough and are very appreciative of the hospitality extended by Jeff, the property owner who was a pleasure to meet and who went way “above and beyond” to insure that we had a great time!

Thanks again Jeff!

About the host

Hosted by Jeff Lewis

Host profile image
Southern California native, I live 75% in coastal Orange County and 25% here in Palm Springs. The Rimcrest community is a very special place in the desert and I enjoy being able to share my home with others.

Why they chose this property

Mid-century architecture combined with some of the most amazing views in all of Coachella Valley. Rimcrest is located on the hillside beneath just below the prestigious Southridge neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

The home has been tastefully updated and modernized while keeping the mid-century "feeling". A mixture of period and modern furniture throughout. Of the 50+ condominium units at Rimcrest, this is one of just 5 or 6 that are completely free-standing and do not share a wall with other units.
