Little Tuscany takes its name from the hilly region of Central Italy around Florence which it resembles. Little Tuscany was developed in 1935 and offers the classic charm of old Palm Springs with its quiet narrow streets on the hilly terrain. Many if not most of the homes have grounds landscaped around the great boulders there. This quiet neighborhood is on the northern edge of central Palm Springs and still provides residents with the convenience of easy city living. The homes here are built in a variety of architectural styles from bungalows to grand estates. Close to the foot of the San Jacinto Mountains, these lovely homes in Little Tuscany enjoy a wonderful vantage point to view the mountains and the valley floor below.
