Jackie Coogan House

1050 EAST RACQUET CLUB ROAD
PALM SPRINGS

Moviedom’s first child star, Jackie Coogan, who later became known for his portrayal of Uncle Fester in the original “The Addams Family” TV show, relocated to the desert in his later years, purchasing this Racquet Club Estates dwelling with his fourth wife, Dorothea, in 1966. The butterfly-roofed, William Krisel-designed pad was the actor’s last home. Dorothea sold it shortly following his passing at the age of 69 in 1984. Remodeled in the years since, it still maintains many of its original MCM elements.
