Slide into a custom pool framed by desert boulders and Joshua trees, then watch the sky turn amber as the day winds down – this house in Joshua Tree was built for exactly this kind of evening. The single-storey layout opens directly onto over two private acres of native desert landscaping, with floor-to-ceiling glass doors dissolving the line between inside and out. When you do venture further, downtown Joshua Tree is five minutes away and the National Park entrance is a fifteen-minute drive.

Home truths
You'll need a car to make the most of your stay here. The home sits in a residential desert setting, and while downtown Joshua Tree is a five-minute drive away, there's no way to reach shops, restaurants, or the National Park on foot.
There's space for up to four cars in the garage and driveway, but no on-street parking is available – so if you're arriving in a convoy, plan your vehicle numbers accordingly.

Local guide
About Joshua Tree
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.
