Your mid-century modern dream condo just steps from Cheesman Park is waiting for you. Discover why vintage ads said this building has every convenience for the discriminating and luxurious living for those who care. The thoughtfully restored kitchen features original natural wood cabinetry, playful turquoise laminate countertops, and a cork backsplash, inviting color and nostalgia. A reproduction Dishmaster faucet brings style and function from the past. Elegant Tesselle terrazzo flooring defines the living area, while cork flooring warms and quiets the space with period-appropriate charm. Mahogany paneling in the living and dining areas adds warmth and timeless sophistication. Loads of storage space, closets, a built-in book shelf and planter add to this unique condo. Every room opens onto a private 54-foot-long lanai with views of the mountains and a peek at Cheesman Parks historic mansions. Designed by architect Tom Hite and built by C.W. Roberts Construction, this building is a stunning example of mid-century multi-family architecture. Live in Technicolor with a blend of vintage and new wallpaper, vintage bathrooms, and modern amenities. The primary suite offers an ensuite bath with terrazzo shower pan, harlequin wallpaper, and a spacious walk-in closet. Residents enjoy access to the penthouse lounge and sundeck, perfect for taking in panoramic city and mountain views. Deeded basement parking is included and a storage unit in the laundry room. This is city living with unmistakable style that will make you feel as though you stepped right into 1964 Palm Springs!
