The Faulkner House

PS CITY ID #069520
Welcome to The Faulkner House, a beautifully restored 1952 mid-century home in Palm Springs' historic Movie Colony East neighborhood. Originally commissioned by athlete Tod Faulkner and located within an Albert Frey-designed development, this distinctive 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home celebrates the architecture and effortless indoor-outdoor living that define Palm Springs. Spend sunny afternoons beside your private saltwater pool, enjoy mountain views beneath swaying palms, or gather around one of the home's four original stone fireplaces. With approximately 2,900 square feet of living space, thoughtfully appointed bedrooms, and multiple outdoor entertaining areas, The Faulkner House offers a memorable desert escape just 1.4 miles from downtown Palm Springs.

Highlights
• Private saltwater swimming pool with mountain views
• Restored 1952 mid-century architecture with vaulted wood ceilings
• Original, guest-usable stone fireplaces (in living room only)
• Fully fenced, dog-friendly grounds with outdoor dining, lounging, and firepit
• Desirable Movie Colony East location near downtown Palm Springs

The Space
Step inside a piece of Palm Springs architectural history, where original character meets modern comfort. The Faulkner House retains the defining features of its mid-century heritage, including dramatic vaulted wood ceilings, clerestory windows, natural stone fireplaces, and expansive glass that connects the interior with the surrounding desert landscape. The main living room offers comfortable seating beneath soaring ceilings, with a striking original stone fireplace serving as its centerpiece. Additional sitting areas and fireplaces provide inviting spaces to unwind, read, or enjoy time together while still allowing everyone a little room to themselves.

The bright, open kitchen features generous counter space, a large island, and an easy connection to the dining and living areas. Whether preparing breakfast before a day by the pool or sharing dinner with family and friends, the home's thoughtful layout makes gathering effortless. Carefully selected furnishings, warm natural materials, and colorful mid-century accents complement the home's original architecture without sacrificing comfort. Individual climate controls throughout the home allow guests to personalize their indoor comfort.

Outdoor dining areas offer space to enjoy meals in the fresh air, while the barbecue makes casual poolside cooking easy. Additional patios and shaded seating areas provide quieter corners throughout the property.

As evening approaches, gather around the outdoor firepit, enjoy the illuminated landscaping, and take in the peaceful atmosphere beneath the desert sky.
