Charles DuBois! Mid Century Modern! Vista Las Palmas! This period sensitive remodeled Mid-Century Estate (1962) features poured terrazzo floors, walls of glass wrapped around corners, and multiple outdoor entertaining areas with firepit(s), amongst desert landscaping.At one corner of the home one can peer through said walls of glass and see all the way to the adjacent corner. The previous owners had additions built in the back which the current owners removed to restore the original footprint and lines of the house. Sets of breezeblock panels echo the vintage square-in-square motif throughout the property. A complete chef's kitchen incorporates the who's who in appliances and is designed for entertaining. The garage is air-conditioned for the auto enthusiast, and encompasses an electronic vehicle charging station, along with backup batteries for the owned 15 KW solar panel system that powers the home. Sweeping westerly mountain views and dynamic sunrise views from the east are not to be missed. Through previous research of title history by the owners, the first owner was Oscar-winning cinematographer Robert Lee Surtees, whose credits include Ben Hur, The Graduate, & The Sting. Sydney Sheldon and Nat King Cole were neighbors either side and Marilyn Monroe once lived two doors up.
