We immediately embarked on stripping away design “elements” that were not original to the house (mirrors, shiny marble tile etc.).

Read MoreWelcome to Tahquitz River Estates Neighborhood, Truly The most diverse in all of Palm Springs!
The neighborhood sits on both sides of the Tahquitz "wash" just south of central Palm Springs. It was not always called Tahquitz River Estates. In the early 1930's, the first development was called Palos Verdes Estates and is still populated with charming "Old Palm Springs" Spanish revival homes. Some of these bungalows were under construction even before Palm Springs became incorporated back in 1938!
