Palm Springs native and Master Builder Joe Pawling built this 1957 property in Thunderbird Heights for Mary Evans. Just under 4000 square feet this post and beam property features two one bedroom guest houses centered around the artfully landscaped yard with kite shaped pool/spa and two fire features. The main house has three bedrooms and three bathrooms and because of its siting on the sloping mountain lot floats above the larger of the two guest houses below. The larger guest house a has living area with fireplace and kitchen area all so nice we are sure your guests will not want to leave. The property has expansive covered outdoor living spaces with tree top and mountain views. The generously sized master suite at one end of the property has a wet room bath and also has extraordinary views. The home has been through extensive renovation and restoration keeping lots of the mid century charm without having to "live" mid century and may potentially qualify for historic status.

Step through the dramatic entrance to an expansive mid-century home beyond. An interior atrium graces the entryway into the spacious living room with fireplace and walls of glass looking onto the gorgeous mountain views. Beautiful post and beam tongue and groove vaulted ceilings that begin at the entry and continue through the terrace, are a signature of this home. A wide graceful covered terrace provides large outdoor living space. Walk down a curved stairway to the pool, spa and outdoor entertaining area with bar and fire pit. Separate guest house by the pool has a living room with fireplace, kitchenette, large bedroom and bath. Remodeled throughout, this home retains its mid-century design and adds contemporary finishes and conveniences. A sleek kitchen features chic appliances, counters and cabinetry. The master suite is a sanctuary. It has a walk-in closet with custom built-ins and spa-like bath with soaking tub, wet room and atrium. There are two additional bedroom suites.
