A Rare Architectural Offering and designed by Gin Wong! Set behind the gates of Thunderbird Terrace and adjacent to the historic Thunderbird Country Club, this architecturally unique residence sits on just over half an acre and offers exceptional potential in one of Rancho Mirage's most established luxury enclaves. The home reflects the bold modernism that defined the architect's career. Wong helped shape postwar California architecture with work that includes the LAX Theme Building, CBS Television City, the Union Oil Center, and Beverly Hills' iconic Union 76 station. During his tenure with Pereira & Associates, he also contributed to San Francisco's landmark Transamerica Pyramid. His influence is evident here through the home's clean modernist lines, natural stone elements, and distinctive pyramidal roof. A private gated courtyard introduces the layout and sets the stage for a light-filled interior. Inside, the main living areas feature walls of glass overlooking the pool and gardens, cove lighting, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. A hidden wet bar offers a nod to the home's original entertaining style. The kitchen and family room connect seamlessly, opening to the outdoors through sliders and offering a convenient pass-through to the patio ideal for al fresco dining. The ensuite primary retreat enjoys tall ceilings, direct garden access, and an indoor-outdoor bath design with separate tub and shower. Two guest suites, each with their own outdoor connection, provide excellent separation and privacy. Additional features include generous storage, a laundry room, and a three-car garage. A compelling opportunity to restore or reimagine a Gin Wong designed property with strong architectural bones, expansive grounds, and a premier location within Thunderbird Terrace.
