Twelve gated acres at the foot of the San Jacinto Mountains, with three homes, a private pond, and enough ground that a group of 20 can spend a week here without anyone bumping into each other. The Pond Estate is the largest compound in Palm Springs, and it still sits less than ten minutes from downtown, tucked between the Indian Canyons hiking trails and the Indian Canyons Golf Resort.
The Hacienda is the main house, just reimagined by Lala Reimagined, the design studio whose work on the owner's Malibu home appeared in Architectural Digest. It runs past 12,700 square feet: a grand foyer, a towering great room, more than one dining room, and a cinema room for late-night screenings. Five bedrooms, three of them suites. The primary suite connects straight to the home gym and an ensuite bath with a sauna, steam room, and soaking tub, then carries on to the indoor pool and hot tub. Terraces wrap the house, and a covered interior courtyard built around a large water feature gives the two other suites their own private way in and out.
The Tennis House, the pink one, is 4,100 square feet of tiled floors, wood-beamed ceilings, and windows that let the light do the decorating. Three ensuite bedrooms, a big living and dining room with its own bar space, and the private tennis court the house is named for.
The Casita sits at the edge of the Great Lawn. Just under 2,000 square feet, with three more ensuite bedrooms including one generous suite, it gives a family or a few couples a quieter corner of the property to call home.
Between the houses, the compound keeps going. The Pool Club has a large outdoor pool and spa, covered structures for lounging, a bar, an outdoor kitchen and dining area built for a crowd, and an amphitheater-style fire pit that pulls everyone together after dark. The Game House is 3,000 square feet of former garage space turned into a color-soaked playroom, finished in 2024 and packed wall to wall with games, plus a wet bar and a big seating area for watching the game or a movie. The White Space, also finished in 2024, is 3,000 square feet of clean, open room for meetings, retreats, yoga mornings, or whatever your group wants to plan. Add multiple lawns, the pond and its stream, immaculate landscaping, mountain views in every direction, and private hiking trails that start from the property.
Leave the gate and the canyons are a few minutes away: Andreas and Murray Canyon trails, the palm oases of Indian Canyons, and Tahquitz Canyon with its seasonal waterfall. Golfers have the Indian Canyons courses next door. Downtown Palm Springs, with Palm Canyon Drive's restaurants, shops, and midcentury architecture tours, is a short drive north.
