Home of the Week: Dropping anchor in Palm Springs
Built for late Corvette racing icon Jim Jeffords, this modern estate in the Southridge area of Palm Springs evokes the prow of naval ship with its bowed design.
The boat-like appearance is furthered in the living room, where three walls of floor-to-ceiling glass form a “bridge” for taking in sweeping desert landscapes and mountain views.
