Property Description
Discover The Pinkley House - An Icon of Mid-Century Design, Reimagined for Today. In the heart of South Palm Desert, just moments from El Paseo's high-end dining, shopping, and entertainment, sits a meticulously restored mid-century modern estate of rare significance. Designed in 1961 by renowned architect John Outcault for celebrated author and newspaperman Virgil Pinkley, this 3,696 sq ft residence, affectionately known as The Pinkley House, is both a preserved architectural treasure and a refined modern home. Set on over half an acre, the 4-bedroom, 3-bath property has undergone a complete restoration, with updated systems throughout and every detail thoughtfully considered. The gourmet chef's kitchen features custom walnut cabinetry, commercial-grade appliances, a breakfast nook, breakfast bar, and a generous passthrough from the formal dining room, ideal for entertaining. The expansive primary suite boasts a newly redesigned walk-in closet, exceptional scale, and direct access to private patios. One of the guest baths retains its original 1960's tile, expertly restored as a nod to the home's heritage. The living and dining areas are anchored by soaring redwood ceilings and a striking native stone fireplace. Multiple doors connect the interiors to secluded courtyards and lush patios, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The north-facing back of the home is a wall of glass the entire length of the house, framing views of the resort-style backyard with mature landscaping, landscape lighting, and the LED-lit saltwater pool. Outdoors, enjoy multiple entertaining spaces including an outdoor kitchen, fire pit seating area, outdoor shower, and the pool with removable safety fence and gate. Native stone accents on the exterior and the original front door with period hardware further honor the home's mid-century roots. Featured on Modernism Week's Signature Home Tour in 2018, The Pinkley House is a rare opportunity to own a celebrated piece of Palm Desert's architectural history, lovingly restored for the next generation.
