2044 S Tulare DR Palm Springs, CA 92264

Modern desert oasis on fee land in the coveted Indian Canyons neighborhood. Featured in Architectural Digest in 1980, this 3,120 sq ft custom residence was designed to celebrate light, space, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. Clean architectural lines, sun-filled interiors, and a calm, confident modern presence are complemented by crisp white finishes, generous volumes, and contemporary finishes that create a refined yet relaxed desert aesthetic throughout.
A dramatic formal entry sets the tone. A glass-screened entry courtyard opens to a covered walkway punctuated by circular roof cutouts that flood the space with natural light, leading to a pivoting clear-glass front door. Inside, the floor plan unfolds with intention—living, dining, and entertaining spaces arranged to feel open yet well defined, with clear sightlines to the outdoors and an abundance of sliding glass doors connecting to patios and pool areas.
The living and dining spaces are expansive and gallery-like, ideal for entertaining, while maintaining a sense of ease and livability. Original Hollywood Regency details, including select cabinetry and bathroom fixtures, add character and warmth, thoughtfully balanced with modern updates such as a smooth stucco exterior, and large-format tiles that keep the home feeling current.
Outdoor living is a true highlight. A charming side-yard dining courtyard evokes the intimacy of an Italian village, offering a distinctive and inviting setting for alfresco gatherings. Beyond, a large midcentury-style pool anchors a well-curated leisure area positioned to capture coveted southern views of the San Jacinto Mountains, creating a serene backdrop for both relaxation and entertaining.
The home offers three spacious bedroom suites and three-and-one-half baths. The primary suite is generously scaled, with space for a sitting area or home office, and opens directly to the pool and outdoor shower. The primary bath includes two large walk-in closets. Both primary and secondary baths include radiant heated floors. Other features include a travertine clad fireplace, Sub-Zero refrigerators throughout including two full sized wine fridges, 58 solar panels, full California closet build outs in all bedroom closets, and meticulous desert landscaping.
A rare opportunity to own a fee land home in Indian Canyons, one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Palm Springs, showcasing timeless midcentury architecture and seamless indoor-outdoor living.
