Property Description

A true collector's item in the world of desert modernism, 73271 Buckboard Trail--known as the Paulette Herbert Johnson House--is a 1958 mid-century masterpiece by celebrated architect Walter S. White. Rarely does a home of this significance come to market--an exquisitely maintained and restored example of Palm Desert's architectural history, blending timeless design with resort-style living.Step through a pebble-stone entry into an open, light-filled floor plan where floor-to-ceiling glass walls, terrazzo floors, original wood paneling, and signature masonry walls create a seamless indoor/outdoor flow surrounding the living and dining areas. The custom wood panel kitchen cabinetry pays homage to its mid-century roots, while two beautifully appointed bedrooms feature cork-lined closets and bathrooms with authentic period tile and lighting. Natural light pours through every corner, framing breathtaking views of the surrounding gardens, mountains and desert skyline.The grounds are a modernist playground: a Parker-style pebble bottom pool and spa, outdoor kitchen with barbecue and pizza oven, bocce court, putting green, lounge gazebo, firepits galore, and room for an ADU--all set against panoramic desert vistas. A spacious two-car garage plus additional parking for up to six vehicles
