Located in the historic Movie Colony of Palm Springs, this architecturally significant post-and-beam residence designed by Donald Wexler with Richard Harrison for developer Roy Fey presents a rare opportunity to own a true piece of desert modernism. Believed to have been the former home of Dinah Shore, the property offers both architectural and cultural provenance.Nestled across the street from the former Tony Curtis House and neighboring the Art Linkletter Estates, the setting places the home among some of Palm Springs' most storied and architecturally notable properties.The residence remains largely in its original condition, preserving authentic mid-century details including walls of glass, tongue-and-groove ceilings, original poured-in-place concrete floors throughout much of the home, and terrazzo flooring in the family room -- timeless materials that reflect Wexler's signature modernist design.Set on a private walled corner lot with panoramic mountain views, the grounds create a serene desert retreat with mature hummingbird gardens and abundant yard-to-table citrus trees, enhancing the seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle.A spacious family/media room offers flexible use and presents the opportunity to convert into a new primary suite with en-suite bath, allowing for a potential 5-bedroom, 4-bath configuration.An exceptional restoration, modernization, or long-term investment opportunity in one of Palm Springs' most desirable and historically significant neighborhoods -- ideal for collectors, design enthusiasts, or investors seeking architectural pedigree and long-term upside.
