Prior to the flight, the pilot contacted the destination airport's fixed base operator to inquire about the local wind conditions. The pilot planned on diverting to an alternate airport if the crosswinds were too strong. During the final approach to the destination airport, the airplane encountered turbulent winds. The airplane ballooned during the landing flare, and the pilot executed a go-around. During the attempted go-around, the left wing contacted terrain, and the airplane came to rest upright adjacent to a residence. During the accident sequence, the airplane sustained damage to the firewall, fuselage, and both wings. Postaccident examination of the airplane showed no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane.
