The year is 1959 and the vision for a new lifestyle has emerged. One of modern light-filled spaces where nature beckons indoors and truth to materials is the tenet. William Krisel designed ''high ranch'' style home noted for its iconic butterfly roofline. One of just 15 homes in ''Valley of Sun Estates'' built by Maus + Holstein in the desirable Tamarisk neighborhood. Listed on the Rancho Mirage Register of Historic Places with substantial property tax savings through The Mills Act. 3BD, 2BA case study in flawless post + beam design. Magnificent block fireplace, tongue + groove ceilings, and clerestory windows reaching 13 feet and welcoming the glorious desert light. Effortless indoor-outdoor living is a theme. Impressive mountain views. Kitchen and bath finishes are a delight. Loving the kicky MCM wood paneling. Fun Fact: this kidney shaped pool's blue-tiled walls radiate a brilliant iridescence at night. Detached ''mod studio'' is architectural in its own right and opens to the north staying relatively cool much of the year. A shade sail canopy over the outdoor lounge space is certain to surprise and delight guests at happy hour. Nearby custom-designed modernist fire pit works its own kind of magic. Born of the Mid Century Modern movement, and yet years later, the magic continues.
