Ratner Residence

Ratner Residence 1633 Via Roberto Miguel, Palm Springs, CA 92262

The Ratner Residence was designed for developer Roy Fey in 1960 by master architects Donald Wexler and Richard Harrison.  As one of about seventy Wexler & Harrison mass-produced tract houses built in the El Rancho Vista Estates neighborhood, the residence is a highly intact contributor and is a prime example of one of their elegant Midcentury Modern designs.  The residence uses the “Bermuda” floorplan, a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home with a large living room and separate family room.
