401 E Via Colusa, Palm Springs, CA 92262

Traditional California architecture distinguishes this Movie Colony classic. Inside whitewashed walls a pair of Canary Island palms stand watch over a graveled courtyard and reflecting pool. A long portico tiled in colorful mosaicos and an antique Spanish lamp welcome visitors into the home. The living room's beamed ceiling and the artisanal tilework of the adjacent gallery reflect craftsmanship unknown in new construction. Classic design merges into light-filled living spaces that open through French doors to a Saltillo terrace, swimming pool and garden framed by the shoulders of Mt. San Jacinto to the west. A grape arbor and a formal pergola entwined with bougainvillea invite outdoor entertaining. Fresh morning croissants and coffee are a six minute walk past the lush grounds of the Colony Palms Hotel to the shops of North Palm Canyon Drive.
