Property Description
Step into a piece of architectural history at "The Royal Singapore". Acclaimed architect Donald Wexler's most unique creation was a bold departure from prevailing mid-century architecture and a playful foray into Polynesian-inspired Modernism. With its prominent Hawaiian-style outrigger, intricate stonework, and sprawling 4 Bedroom layout, 5240 Lakeside is believed to be one of the original model homes showcased to prospective buyers in the heralded enclave of Green Fairway Estates. Furthering its illustrious provenance, this property is also among "The Last of the Alexanders" - one of the final homes completed by acclaimed desert builders George and Robert Alexander prior to their tragic passing in November 1965. One of just 3 existing Royal Singapore models amongst the 35 Wexler-designed homes in Green Fairway Estates, 5240 Lakeside still presents its iconic H-shaped layout, with grand front doors opening to walls of glass, the central lanai, and open views of Tahquitz Creek Legend Course. Featuring its original "Alexander Cone" fireplace, sparkling pool, owned Solar, 100 foot golf course frontage, and 600 square foot primary suite, this property has been meticulously renovated to pay homage to its unique style and storied history.
