About This Home

As of January 2025

29 West: Enjoy the best near the border of Joshua Tree, with the highest aesthetic Post Palm Springs Hi-Desert Design by local artists. This exceptional hilltop property offers stunning mountain views of Indian Cove and Joshua Tree National Park, creating a one-of-a-kind desert retreat. Positioned on 2.5 acres and surrounded by government land on three sides, the home ensures both privacy and seclusion, with a fully fenced perimeter.
The exterior showcases striking industrial modern grooved slat wall siding and designer black windows and doors, blending a sleek, modern aesthetic with the natural desert surroundings. Inside, the home features luxury designer vinyl herringbone flooring, granite countertops and backsplash, and Portuguese marble tile in the bathrooms. Finishes like lime wash and Venetian plaster add a refined touch throughout.
Designed to embrace the surrounding landscape, black designer glass sliding doors throughout the home offer uninterrupted views from every room and create a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. Custom Teak and white oak accent walls and built-in furniture bring organic warmth to the sleek design.
The focal point of the living space is a granite-lit faux fireplace, accented by a white oak mantel, serving as both a centerpiece and a work of art. This home also features a luxurious jacuzzi, offering the perfect spot to relax and take in the serene desert surroundings. This home offers a unique combination of luxury, artistic design, and organic desert living.
