Spirit Animal

Spirit Animal: California

Set on Millionaire's Row, just a stone’s throw from world-famous Palm Canyon Drive, this mid-century house is ideal for enjoying this desert city's glitz and glamour. With cotton candy pink stools, quirky prints on the walls and a velvet chaise lounge in the living area, this home is serious about one thing: fun. Outside there's a riot of colour, with a glittering turquoise swimming pool, bright green lawns and neon chairs where you can kick back and enjoy the mountain views. Some people visit Palm Springs for the golf courses, but here you need not even venture out to enjoy a game – the backyard boasts its very own putting green. Put your cooking skills to the test at the state-of-the-art barbecue station and savour your handiwork alfresco on the terrace, before heading out to discover the city’s hottest nightlife spots. Prefer to stay home? Turn on the disco pool lighting and chill out in your private spa after dark, or gather round the fire feature with a bottle of Californian wine.
