This full-blooded and updated Moroccan-inspired midcentury modern in Palm Desert, California, is new to the open market late this year. A 1951-built home with four bedrooms and four baths across 3,460 sq. ft., the single-level house sits on a lot measuring .74 acres and offers a stunningly open interior living style.

Listing information reveals that this house’s current design scheme is the result of a three-year restoration process. A broad pivoting door is one of the newer design elements at work; solid mahogany, it opens to a living area supported by post-and-beam construction. Here, a double-sided fireplace is the centerpiece, with a rather exotic-looking hearth step, and in back multiple sliding glass doors opens to the outdoor living area’s desert landscaping and pool area. Concrete floors run throughout the shared spaces.

Not surprisingly, the master bedroom was accorded considerable special attention in the revision. It divides the sleeping area from a large sitting room with a small accent, and is joined by a dedicated bath with a freestanding tub and sliding glass and a walk-in closet accented with a barn door.
