811 E Grace Cir
Description
This is the very home where Life magazine photographed McQueen in 1963, lounging...Steve McQueen's Original Palm Springs Home! Tucked away on a private cul-de-sac in Racquet Club Estates, this iconic midcentury home was designed by architects Dan Palmer and William Krisel and built by the Alexander Construction Company. Hand-selected by Steve McQueen as his personal desert retreat, the property sits on one of the neighborhood's premier lots, offering dramatic San Jacinto views and exceptional privacy.
This is the very home where Life magazine photographed McQueen in 1963, lounging poolside and slow dancing in the living room. A rare chance to own a true piece of Palm Springs history — boldly stylish and effortlessly timeless. All key systems have been recently updated.
McQueen's custom-designed, south-facing pool is ideal for swimming laps or diving from the board. Two conversation areas are integrated into the expansive wrap-around yard, surrounded by mature trees and a citrus grove planted by McQueen himself, perfect for entertaining or quiet relaxation.
The white stone façade opens into a sleek, all-white interior where European minimalism meets classic post-and-beam design. Original features include perforated ceiling tiles, a floating inset fireplace, and walls of glass that connect indoor spaces to the outdoors. The open kitchen is outfitted with marble-topped Pierre Cardin cabinetry with matching bar and a Wolf range.
