An iconic piece of Palm Springs real estate has hit the market with an asking price of $3.8 million.
Once home to socialite Magda Gabor (sister to the famous Zsa Zsa Gabor), the three bedroom/four bath home on Cielo, the 1960s home has gone through a total design transformation, thanks to designer and current owner Tracy Turco. Preserving the Gabor glamour and essence was paramount to Turco, who has even preserved many furnishings from the Gabors.
The elevated parcel offers 360 degree views of the surrounding mountains and city with incomparable privacy. A covered veranda leads from the mosaic tile pool area to hand carved double doors and into a sweeping living and dining room, complete with elegant chandeliers and mirror walls.
Double doors lead to the kitchen featuring Viking appliances, a distinctive troweled ceiling, glass cabinetry and an original Hungarian rotisserie are added bonuses. The primary bedroom wing has a sitting room/office, dressing room, makeup room, bath, dual vanities, shower and tub.
Conrad Miller of Avenue 8 Inc. holds the listing.
