1010 W Friar Court

Property Overview
Tucked into a prime, elevated, and expansive cul-de-sac lot in the sought-after Summit section of Vista Las Palmas, this Charles DuBois mid-century retreat pairs architectural character with modern livability. Privately accessed via a gated driveway, the property enjoys a heightened sense of seclusion and security, framed by sculptural desert landscaping and exquisite mountain views that create a calm, natural extension of its surroundings. The main living and dining areas unfold beneath wood-clad ceilings that rise over eleven feet, where skylights and broad panes of glass invite soft, changing light throughout the day. A gas fireplace adds warmth and focus to the space, complemented by a material palette that balances beloved desert textures and tones with Italian-inspired elegance. The kitchen maintains the home's refined aesthetic, featuring stainless steel appliances and a pass-through to the patio bar. Beyond the main living area are three bedrooms, including a generous primary suite that opens to a private saltwater spa with a waterfall feature and mountain views. An awning adds comfort and shade, while the ensuite bath with dual vanities and a large shower opens to a garden atrium, enhancing the home's tranquil indoor-outdoor experience. The backyard invites connection and relaxation with a covered wet bar and seating area, built-in barbecue, fire feature, misting system, saltwater pool, and sun deck surrounded by refreshed, mature landscaping. A solar power system with backup battery enhances the home's comfort and efficiency, completing a residence that feels timeless, elevated, and distinctly Palm Springs.
