Building Designer John Moyer (AIBD) arrived in Palm Springs in 1947, and by the mid-1950s, he had designed over 250 homes for renowned builder Jack Meiselman, each a striking expression of classic Mid-Century Modern design. In addition to his prolific residential work, Moyer also completed several commercial projects, so he was well-versed in his art before designing this exceptional home in 1955 for Drs. Gerald and Lucille Fostvedt. A dramatic triangular form marks the entry, setting the tone for this remarkable five-bedroom residence that gracefully wraps around a private backyard patio and swimming pool. Distinctive angles and beautifully preserved Mid-Century Modern details throughout the home pay homage to the iconic Palm Springs aesthetic. Impeccably maintained period bathroom fixtures, original cabinetry, and architectural features enhance the home's vintage charm, making it a perfect retreat for enjoying the seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle that defines desert living. Set on an oversized corner lot, the property offers sweeping mountain views from both inside and out, while being just minutes from downtown Palm Springs. With five bedrooms, there's plenty of space for friends and family, or the flexibility to create an office or private den. As a final touch, the original framed plans and elevations are included with the home.
