Details
If Motown, 60s Psychedelic Rock, Spy Music and Chicago Blues are your jam, then no doubt you have crossed paths with the valley’s top rated entertainers: The Gand Band, led by the dynamic team of Joan and Gary.
 
As avid collectors of midcentury real estate and furnishings, their latest acquisition came about after stumbling through the dark brown entry gate of a Santa Faux Pueblo hidden behind a crumbling wood wall. 
 
On closer inspection it revealed high ceilings, a spacious floor plan, a sunken bar, stunning desert gardens, walls of glass and a panoramic view of the mountains. How could they resist!  Having acquired vast experience in restoring architecturally significant homes, this became their next challenge. 
 
As they started to strip off the many layers that had been added over the years, a desert gem finally revealed itself as a premier example of 70s Modernism originally designed by local architect, Tom Jakway in 1971.
 
Following an extensive restoration of the exterior and a reimagining of the interior, the house now nicknamed Villa Vadera, compliments the groovy, sexy vibe. Don’t forget to check out the amazing vintage guitar collection!
 
PS ModCom invites you to see the new incarnation of the house, open to the public for the very first time, and hear the restoration stories first-hand from Joan and Gary.
