Beautiful. Obviously. To me, it is borderline priceless. But in the real world, I know it's a Neutra. I know its exquisite. I know it was very well renovated. But $25 million?
I understand it's cultural significance and owning such an iconic home is incredibly rare and I know someone with stacks of cash will buy it for $25 million. But. Palm Springs is a horrid place to live for most of the year given the desert climate IMO. No idea who would want to own it.
Across in Los Angeles, well, Pasadena, comedian Kristen Wiig purchased Case Study Home #10 a few years ago for $3 million. $ per sq/ft is far higher in Los Angeles than Palm Springs, too, so it seems like a complete bargain by comparison.
But. With that said. I would live in the desert if it meant living there :-)
