1784 S Araby Dr Unit 19, Palm Springs, CA 92264

Architecture + Landscape + Restoration all meet at Park Imperial South. Inspired by the surrounding mountain range and abundant natural light, the architect Barry Berkus created Palm Springs' signature resort community in 1961. This unit was meticulously restored with oversight by Berkus himself, and has been a favorite destination during Modernism Week tours. Its restoration was meticulous, with original bar area, stove hood, Soji screens, light fixtures, cabinetry and hardware. Further, the current owners updated the unit's electricity, appliances, HVAC; and installed an in-unit washer-dryer, and solar power (fully owned). The jewel of this property is its unexpected private garden patio, one of the largest at Park Imperial, designed for relaxation and entertainment. The current owners are passionate gardeners, who, together with Randy G Myers Nursery, created a maximalist oasis. Lush tropical plants and a grove of mature palm trees are set amongst custom designed planters and seating, a firepit and built-in grill, as well as irrigation and lighting systems. This property has Class 1 historical status and the Mills Act, and a dedicated HOA board of architectural stewards.
