Val Powelson, AIA, c.1961; These magical mid-century bungalows with soaring wood ceilings, architecturally angled walls, and expansive glass sections were built by Robert Marx, the son of Gummo Marx of the iconic Marx Brothers comedic family ("You can't fool me, there's no such thing as a sanity clause") & are now in the Rancho Mirage Register of Historic Resources. Clustered in a radiating star pattern of five four-unit blocks, each unit is identical in floor plan, making location and condition the key factors in Da Vaal Estates. To that end, Unit 26 has arguably one of the finest locations, overlooking the large community pool yet secluded from encroachment of traffic or automobile sounds. Preserved in largely original fashion, this unit was one of only five units selected during Modernism Week's first ever tour of Da Vaal Estates. There are 2 bedroom en suites, large open living space with gas fireplace, open galley kitchen with period screen divider, and new central A/C.
