Description

Renowned architect William Krisel is best known for his iconic butterfly roofline designs and likely created more of them than any other architect. This home is a perfect example of why his work was so important and continues to enthrall us to this day. The dramatic, soaring roof not only echoes the silhouette of the surrounding mountains but also allows for expansive clerestory windows that blur the line between indoors and out, flooding the interior with natural light and truly bringing the outdoors in. Krisel's designs for the Twin Palms neighborhood, developed in 1957 for the Alexander Construction Company, were elegantly simple, highly livable, and revolutionary in showing how cutting-edge architecture could be brought to the mainstream market. Now thoughtfully updated, this home invites you to experience Krisel's vision in a contemporary way. It features three bedrooms and two bathrooms, along with two additional bonus rooms accessed from the exterior, ideal for a studio, office, or guest space. The open-concept kitchen flows into the dining and living areas, which extend outward to a private pool, spa, and patio. A covered outdoor entertainment area with built-in BBQ completes this quintessential Palm Springs lifestyle experience.
