"Not only was this exquisite 1957 midcentury-modern home designed by renowned desert modern architects Donald Wexler and Richard Harrison," says listing agent Keith Markovitz of Compass Real Estate, "it’s located in an intimate Rancho Mirage community master-planned by legendary architect William F. Cody. One of a cluster of 10 homes in Thunderbird North, the sleek low-slung house sits on over half an acre of land and is wrapped in spectacular mountain views from sunrise to sunset. Simple board-and-batten siding wraps the exterior and extends indoors, and two natural rock walls echo the linearity of the house. Wexler, known for his masterful use of light and shadow, always said his buildings were designed to live with the environment, balancing orientation and views."

On the market for the first time since its creation, this piece of art has been meticulously maintained by the same family since its construction."
