Be among the first to explore a never-before-seen architectural gem from 1964, the Butler Residence. Designed by acclaimed local architect Hal Lacy for Paul Butler, one of the original developers of the historic Indian Canyons Neighborhood.

Situated on one of only six premium golf course lots, this custom-designed residence was carefully sited for its panoramic mountain views and exceptional privacy. Alongside its famous neighbor, the Lear House, it remains as one of only two fully custom homes on this exclusive street.

From the street, the nearly windowless, V-shaped façade, finished in classic slumpstone brick, gives only a hint of the striking design within. The low-slung structure unfolds into two angled bedroom wings extending from a central living area, creating a silhouette reminiscent of a Thunderbird when viewed from above; perhaps a subtle nod to the area’s legendary rival country club.

Recently renovated with care and reverence, the home retains its original spirit while incorporating Modern luxury. Inside, natural quartz flooring flows seamlessly throughout the home and out to a private resort-style pool and patio The former billiard room, once the site of lively gatherings, has now been transformed into a spacious, luxurious guest suite.

This is more than a home; it’s a piece of Palm Springs history that has played a significant role in defining the architectural character of one of its most prestigious neighborhoods.

The Palm Springs Modern Committee (PS ModCom) is a non-profit organization dedicated to the appreciation and preservation of Desert Modern architecture and design.
