About This Home

As of June 2021

Mid-century meets modern at this gorgeous, newly renovated turnkey South Joshua Tree property in the boulders near the entrance of the National Park. The Art House at Casa Del Sol sits on nearly an acre of unobstructed views of the Joshua Tree basin from the wraparound deck out front to the incredible views of the boulders in the hills behind. The Art House was completely renovated in 2021 blending the best of the past, present, and future in its redesign. First, the designers refreshed and reimagined this 1957 home with new period-specific flooring, updated lighting inside and out, flat front modern doors, and stunning bathroom and kitchen remodels that continue and carry its bright golden hue motif. Floating shelves, brand new appliances, and quartz countertops frame the home’s vintage 1957 oven. Reflecting the Art House’s signature blend of past and present a new smart HVAC and security systems were added throughout the main house, a brand new 220-amp panel, brand new laundry appliances, and modern paint colors that play against the light and serenity of Joshua Tree and its famous trees and boulders. Speaking of Joshua Trees, the signature of the Art House is “King Josh”—a majestic three-story Joshua Tree encased inside the upgraded wraparound deck of the home. This Instagram-worthy spot is the perfect location for your morning coffee or the many hashtags to come. The Art House also offers one of the area’s most incredible remote work spaces / Yoga rooms in a separate building with wraparound windows providing the optimum retreat for you or your guests. After all, this stunningly reimagined property is already a 5-star Airbnb licensed rental, enabling you to move right in for Zen or begin operating it right away as a full-time vacation home. This pin drop quiet location is perfectly situated near a MDLT hiking trail and within minutes of both downtown Joshua Tree and the national park. To take in all of those views—and they’re stunning from any corner of the home--a brand-new concrete pad has just been poured. Add a hot tub and get ready for a stargazing experience you won’t ever want to leave. And don’t forget the large detached garage that could easily become an ADU or yet another flex space. The Art House is permitted and under professional management. This gem comes fully furnished along with all kitchen accessories and linens for immediate rental income. This property is 100% turnkey and already has excellent booking history and glowing reviews!
