Description
In 1935, the then unknown architect Albert Frey dropped three boxes in the California Desert. It was a study in simplicity and minimalism. Nearly a century later, The Guthrie House retains its radical dramatic starkness that proves Frey's genius. In 2019, the home was fully renovated with entirely new systems by The Avi Ross Group using the finest materials and craftsmanship; 'The result: a chic zen-like retreat wreathed by staggering mountain views,' says the Los Angeles Times.

Nearly a century later, The Guthrie House retains its radical dramatic starkness that proves Frey's genius. In 2019, the home was fully renovated with entirely new systems by The Avi Ross Group using the finest materials and craftsmanship; 'The result: a chic zen-like retreat wreathed by staggering mountain views,' says the Los Angeles Times. As you approach the gated entrance of the expansive driveway, you enter a secluded oasis in the heart of downtown Palm Springs. The renovation touched all aspects of the home, including structural upgrades, plumbing, electrical, pool, stucco, drywall, roof, energy efficient doors, windows, and HVAC system, as well as a new detached pool house, outdoor bar and barbecue, four in-ground gas fire pits, and custom indoor doggie shower. The Guthrie House has been the backdrop of numerous fashion campaigns and architectural photo shoots, and written about by major international publications.
