Desert Star is a rare slice of 1956 Palm Springs modernism designed by architect Howard Lapham—an intimate, Class 1 historic enclave in South Palm Springs. Originally built as a small motor lodge and later thoughtfully restored, the property now functions as a boutique condominium-style community of compact studio residences arranged around a tranquil central pool and lush desert landscaping, capturing that classic indoor-outdoor vibe in a wonderfully scaled setting. Owners and guests love the easy “lock-and-leave” feel, the architectural pedigree, and the close-to-everything location—plus, as a designated historic site, some units may qualify for Mills Act property-tax savings.
