About This Home

12 Month Lease , Available Now

**Posted rental rate is for year long lease or off-season monthly rental. Designer done with attention to detail at every turn. It's not "just a rental". Sophisticated, zen, stunning, bright, peaceful two-bedroom two bath condo is located just off N. Indian Canyon Dr. One block from all Palm Canyon has to offer. Sitting on 3 acres of what was once the El Mirador Hotel, this community of only 50 units, sits in the coveted area between Las Palmas and Movie Colony. This luxury chic retreat features a European gourmet open kitchen with gorgeous wood cabinets, a built-in microwave, an oven, and a Fisher Paykel refrigerator, a water purifier, and an ice maker. The living room has a comfy deep seating couch, an Eames chair, and a 65-inch FRAME TV . When you're not watching TV, it becomes a piece of framed art. King bed in the primary en-suite bedroom, and a queen bed in the second bedroom. Both bedrooms have 50" flat smart TVs, loaded with just about every app. The second bedroom features a designated work space/desk. There are 2 beautifully newly redesigned baths one with a soaking tub. Both with spa-quality shower heads and lighted bathroom mirrors. There are two patios, both with outdoor globe lights to create a magical ambience in the evening. The front features an egg chair, dining table, and BBQ, with mountain, pool, and tennis court view. The back patio features a bar height bistro area with bar stools and two comfy lounge chairs . Both bedrooms have access to the back patio. A washer and dryer is in the hall closet. Have a morning coffee in the light of the golden sunrise, or experience a magical sunset overlooking the San Jacinto Mountains. Front to back there is a great flow. A few steps from your front door, you will find the Olympic-size pool. Enjoy the lush grounds, featuring our famously manicured trees, and enjoy the hot tub and tennis court. There is one assigned covered parking space with additional tenant and guest parking. Rancho El Mirador is a 2-minute walk to Palm Canyon. For those medical professionals, we are a 1-minute drive to El Mirador Medical Plaza. Everything Palm Springs has to offer is just outside your door. This condo offers a dream lifestyle.

Neighborhood

Uptown Palm Springs is a lavish shopping district in the resort-like city backed by Mount San Jacinto. Local boutiques, vintage sellers, and home décor shops as well as cafes, bistros, and art galleries line the scenic streets. Classic Palm Springs resorts can be found in and just north of Uptown Palm Springs’ limits as well. Apart from the luxurious shopping and dining choices, Uptown Palm Springs features the Desert Regional Medical Center and residential neighborhoods. Renters have choices of Mediterranean-style houses and apartments. More entertainment options are available by heading a few minutes south along Palm Canyon Drive into Downtown Palm Springs. The neighborhood attracts more than shoppers; heading west of town brings residents directly into the trails leading to the mountains.
