Description


Designed by renowned Mid-Century Modern Architect William F. Cody, FAIA as his private family residence, this iconic masterpiece is the epitome of a postwar modernist building. Built with steel post and beam construction, the Cody Residence incorporates a wide range of materials and textures; steel, glass, adobe, and wood paneling; melding its existence into the private environment of mature and intentionally placed creosote and organ pipe cactus. All interior spaces are connected to the exterior by use of multi-level shallow steps, defining elevation changes and outdoor vignettes. The inside boasts Douglas fir Tongue and Groove ceilings, cedar walls, and Italian marble and granite. The home offers a master suite, a guest wing, an office, a hidden powder room and a semi-attached casita with its own bath and living area. The property was meticulously and thoughtfully updated between 1990 and 1992 by the current architect/owner who worked alongside Cody from 1969-1974. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a piece of postwar architecture and Palm Springs history. Available furnished per inventory.
