Cliff May was one of the most influential residential designers of the 20th Century, credited with melding the California ranch style with mid-century modernism to create a new and exciting way of living. His popular designs span the western United States, but they are relatively difficult to find in the Central Valley, until now. Here is a rare find - a Cliff May home in the heart of Visalia, in a peaceful suburban neighborhood. This home has all the iconic May design characteristics: open beam ceilings, clerestory windows that open the interior to the sky, and floor to ceiling glass doors and windows that visually and physically expand the living area to the outdoors. And the perfect complement to such a modern residence is a shaded patio and a sparkling pool, which this property delivers. This particular home features three bedrooms plus an additional room that can transition between either extended living room space or a fourth bedroom or office/den. The kitchen is pure mid-century magic, featuring stylish cabinetry that beautifully exemplifies atomic age design. The property is sited in a quiet interior location within a well-kept suburban community, on a lot measuring over 8,000 square feet. The property is also a relatively short drive to the charming dining and shopping district of Downtown Visalia. Here is a unique and rare opportunity to own iconic architectural design, with a pool on a large lot, in a terrific neighborhood.
