2250 Acacia Rd E, Palm Springs

2250 Acacia Road East, “Three Mountain Vista”

This stunning 1,314-square-foot residence at 2250 E Acacia Road stands as an exemplary showcase of Desert Modernism by Jack Meiselman. Built in 1963, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom home represents a slightly later period in Meiselman’s career, following his establishment of his own distinctive design vocabulary after working with the Alexander Company. Together with his brother Bernie, Jack Meiselman built some 350 homes in Palm Springs, and this notable example has earned recognition by being featured on the prestigious Palm Springs Modernism Week tour.

Situated on a spacious corner lot, the low-slung home takes full advantage of its unique positioning to capture breathtaking views of three mountain ranges—a remarkable feature that sets this property apart. Signature Meiselman details define the architecture, featuring an elegant floor plan, post-and-beam construction, and distinctive butterfly roofs that create dramatic rooflines and soaring interior volumes.

The front of the home and living room, with its high ceilings, open dramatically to reveal the San Jacinto Mountains, while the west-facing kitchen and dining areas overlook an expansive yard designed with multiple entertaining zones. A magnificent pool and spa serve as the centerpiece of outdoor living, recently enhanced with a new heater and fresh acid-washing. The electrical panel has also been upgraded to meet modern needs.

The floor plan exemplifies a notable Meiselman design feature: the primary bedroom, situated on the south side of the home, is en-suite with direct pool access, while the secondary bedrooms and full bathroom occupy the opposite side of the home, creating privacy and separation. Indoor spaces take full advantage of the outdoor areas, with natural light and shade moving through the rooms as the sun travels throughout the day—a choreography of light that animates the living experience.

Thirteen mature palm trees dot the property, providing the quintessential desert soundtrack when winds blow through their fronds. The yard is framed by mature hedges that ensure privacy while maintaining the midcentury modern landscaping aesthetic typical of a Meiselman design.
