Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

It's no wonder this eco-friendly home has been featured in a leading luxury and lifestyle travel magazine. This stunning space is the perfect retreat for friends or families seeking some peace and quiet in California's wild desert. Neatly tucked away on five acres of open wilderness, you'll be surrounded by a striking landscape that is sure to give this trip a most magical feeling. Wind down with your favourite tipple around the fire pit or stargaze from the hot tub. There's also a barbecue, an outdoor shower and plenty of comfortable places to sit back and relax. Inside, you'll find desert-inspired decor and signature earth-tone concrete block walls throughout. We are in love with the vistas from the floor-to-ceiling windows from every room – especially from the master bedroom, which commands magnificent views in two directions. Cosy up around the fire on chilly evenings and play board games, or select a book to read. With so much to offer, it won't be hard to unwind in this enchanting setting. On top of all this, you're just a ten-minute ride from Joshua Tree Village and a mere three-minute drive from Joshua Tree National Park itself. Or admire the sculpture and folk art at the Noah Purifoy Outdoor Desert Art Museum, twenty minutes in the car. No matter how you choose to spend your time, you'll be glad to return home to this gem at the end of the day.
