About This Home
As of May 2025New Construction Contemporary Masterpiece: Exclusive resort ambiance – each bedroom and living area opens to the courtyard via sliding glass for modern indoor/outdoor living. Fully-furnished down to every detail imaginable, utilizing high-end products, contributing to the resort-like accommodations. Perfectly placed pool and spa for private sunbathing with mountain views from the hidden courtyard. Massive 5-acre parcel for privacy. Views of Joshua Tree National Park’s ridgelines and boulder peaks – only minutes away. Architecturally significant courtyard design, shielding the courtyard/swimming pool area on three sides, with the fourth south-facing side opening to the National Park protected by block wall. Each architectural detail leads to the next, so whether experiencing the home from inside, or stepping outside – or even by drone overhead – patterns such as the layout of pool, spa, firepit, sunbathing spaces reveal their designs in subtle and unexpected ways. While not presently an Airbnb (construction was just completed), a reliable property management company with proven track record is already in place if desired for a true turnkey property. Without lifting a hand, step into this exemplary designed investment opportunity. Few homes boast this level of functional immaculate detail creating the very best that South Joshua Tree has to offer.
