Here is your opportunity to take ownership of this fantastic and well preserved Palm Springs icon designed by architect Robert Lewis in 1965, and located in the sought after neighborhood of Deepwell Estates, adjacent to the former homes of Audrey Hepburn, William Holden, Elizabeth Taylor, Liberace and Loretta Young. Named "Stephan's Folly" after its owner, this large 3250 sq ft home features a sunken living room with a swanky curved wet bar, three bedrooms, a den (or 4th bedroom), five bathrooms, pool cabana room, and an oversized garage. The private yard has a kidney shaped pool, and is perfect for entertaining and enjoying the desert lifestyle.

Mr. Stephan was also known for his flashy wardrobe, and he took great pride in decorating his abode in his favorite color (red!).
