Notable LA Restaurateur & Actress Wife Design Palm Springs Architectural Masterpiece

Notable LA restaurateur Beau Laughlin now turned designer-builder - known for opening several LA hotspots including Atrium, Pinky’s, Sawyer and Kettle Black and more deemed the "Best Restaurants" in Los Angeles by LA Magazine and The Los Angeles Times –– alongside his actress wife Lindsey Gort –– known for playing Samantha in The Carrie Diaries –– have built a new, ground-up architectural masterpiece in one of Palm Springs' most-sought after neighborhoods, designed in collaboration with iconic Palm Springs architect, Sean Lockyer, AIA of Studio AR+D. This property signals Laughlin's official foray into single family residential development and design. The property seamlessly blends luxury, sustainability, and the breathtaking natural beauty of the surrounding mountains and prominently features Laughlin's restauranteur’s eye.

With a design pedigree that builds from the tradition of clean lines and organic materials pioneered by the original masters of desert modernism, Laughlin expanded upon the original Studio AR+D architectural plans to create this contemporary desert compound which features five bedrooms laid out in a U-shape around a large outdoor leisure area with epic mountain vistas in all directions. Sited for maximum privacy and views within the exclusive and gated Parc Andreas neighborhood of South Palm Springs, on a corner lot with only one adjacent neighbor. A double-gated motor court and 6' perimeter wall furthers the sense of a private oasis. The interior is anchored by a dramatic 24' expanse of 11' tall Fleetwood sliders which fully pocket behind the walls to create a massive indoor/outdoor living experience. The outdoor leisure area features a resort-sized pool and spa, fully outfitted outdoor kitchen, fire pit area, exceptional landscaping, Garapa wood decking and cantilevered pergola. Each element is framed by architecture and capitalizes on the views. Floor to ceiling plate glass breezeways separate bedroom suites in each wing from the main areas. Exceptional finishes and materials throughout. Built with an eye toward sustainability, efficiency and durability, with locally sourced materials, 4-unit split HVAC, and 28 solar panels.

The property is listed for $5,100,000 with Scott Ehrens at Compass. For more details, please visit: www.compass.com/lis...
