A contemporary desert retreat set against the dramatic landscape just moments from the Joshua Tree National Park entrance.Built in 2017 and thoughtfully designed for modern desert living, this fully furnished three-bedroom, two bath home captures wide open views in every direction while still feeling quiet and private.The interior is simple and refined with clean lines, high ceilings, and concrete floors. Eight-foot glass doors bring in natural light and open to the surrounding desert, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow. The kitchen is both functional and well designed, with custom cabinetry, Bosch appliances, an induction cooktop, and integrated water filtration.Outside is where the home really comes to life. A custom pool and spa sit at the center, surrounded by fire features, an outdoor bar, multiple patios, and an outdoor shower. It is set up for both gathering and slowing down, with spaces that feel equally suited for entertaining or quiet time under the desert sky. The landscaping of mesquite, yucca, ocotillo, and palo verde feels natural and intentional without being overdone.Owned solar, central HVAC, and thoughtful upgrades throughout bring comfort and efficiency.Currently operating as a successful short-term rental, the property offers strong income potential alongside its appeal as a private retreat or full-time residence.Set in one of the most sought-after pockets near the park entrance, this is a home defined by light, space, and a true connection to the desert.
