About This Home
As of May 2026Perched on a hill at the end of a quiet road in North Joshua Tree, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home feels like your own private piece of the desert. With wide-open views stretching across the high desert and a tucked-away location, it offers the kind of calm and space that makes it just as perfect for full-time living as it is for a weekend escape. Inside, the living room is anchored by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and a wood-beamed ceiling—an ideal spot to gather on cool desert nights. Natural light pours through the windows, giving the home an easy, relaxed vibe that feels right at home in Joshua Tree. The open kitchen features custom-made wood cabinetry, handcrafted tile and pendant lighting made by a local ceramicist, adding a one-of-a-kind artistic detail that nods to the area’s creative community. At the front of the home, a window-lined sun porch creates a bright and inspiring flex space currently used as an artist studio—perfect for painting, writing, morning coffee, or simply soaking in the desert views. Set up to capture the magic of the high desert—from glowing sunrises to star-filled skies—this hilltop retreat blends privacy, character, and inspiration, all just a short drive from the shops, restaurants, and iconic landscapes of Joshua Tree National Park. DO NOT DRIVE BY WITHOUT APPOINTMENT.
