"If these walls could talk!" Once owned by Irwin Shuman, owner of the world famous "Chi Chi Club Palm Springs”. This home played host to many famous performers. In a time when most hotels in Palm Springs were still segregated and didn’t allow black entertainers to be guests, many African Americans, including names like Sammy Davis Jr., Eartha Kitt, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong & Nat "King" Cole, to name a few “lived” here.
This 5 bedroom, 5 bathroom, 3,419 sq. ft. home sits on a 17,860 lot located in Movie Colony East neighborhood, heart of Palm Springs. New WHITE porcelain tile floors. The master suite has recently been updated with a large walk-in shower, freestanding tub and a spacious walk-in closet.
Electric cost, from newer energy efficient a/c units and two new commercial size evaporative coolers (they come in handy when weather appropriate) are offset by an oversized, PAID solar system — means your home has minor energy expense. On those cool winter nights snuggle up next to one of your 3 fireplaces throughout the home. Step outside to your lush entertaining backyard and sit poolside with amazing views of the San Jacinto mountains.
Only 500 ft. to Palm Springs most beautiful park, Ruth Hardy, and walking distance to the vibrant UP-TOWN DESIGN DISTRICT — a collection of the most trendy — an eclectic choice of great restaurants, art galleries and designer clothing shops...a few more steps and you are enjoying the New Palm Springs Downtown. Only about 6 or 7 blocks to the new Palm Springs hockey/entertainment arena —- All an easy walk.
Close but far enough away to be in your own world of desert bliss.
