An infinity pool running the length of the front courtyard sets the tone the moment you arrive at this striking modern house in Yucca Valley. Inside, retractable glass walls dissolve the boundary between the high-ceilinged living space and the pool terrace, while a glass-enclosed dining room opens to the desert air on two sides. Perched on a hilltop with unobstructed views over Joshua Tree National Park, every bedroom has floor-to-ceiling glass framing the mountains – and a game room with a pool table ensures there's plenty to do after dark.

Local guide
About Yucca Valley
Drive a couple of hours east of Los Angeles, and you’re in a different world. Nowhere is that more apparent than Joshua Tree with its many artist residences, rugged rock formations, and stark desert landscapes. Named after the twisted, bristled Joshua Tree, a stay in this little Mojave desert community is synonymous with art exhibitions, beautiful night skies, hikes, delicious food, and plenty of hours lounging about in aesthetically pleasing surroundings.
