    What's special

    Outdoor showerMultiple seating areasFire pitDramatic natural rock wall
    Skyfall. Set high among Joshua Tree's iconic boulders at the end of a quiet road, this architectural retreat occupies a rare position where privacy, elevation, and open sky fully converge. Just minutes from the west entrance of Joshua Tree National Park, yet entirely removed.Completed in 2021, the home reflects a disciplined approach to design, where clean lines and natural materials create a sense of calm, understated luxury. The main living space unfolds around a sculptural fireplace and custom Heath-tiled kitchen and baths, while a dramatic natural rock wall and expansive glass frame shifting desert light from first sunrise to the final glow of dusk. A detached guest house and additional studio establish a true compound, offering flexibility for guests, creative work, or quiet retreat.Set on over two acres, the grounds feel intentional and composed. A private pool and spa are positioned to take in unobstructed desert and mountain views, accompanied by an outdoor shower, multiple seating areas, a fire pit, and sculptural desert landscaping that integrates seamlessly with the surrounding terrain.Equally suited as a full-time residence, refined weekend escape, or high-performing short-term rental, Skyfall offers a rare expression of architecture, landscape, and atmosphere in one of Joshua Tree's most sought-after settings.
