About This Home

Nestled in the prestigious neighborhood of Joshua Tree Highlands, a unique opportunity to own a 2+ acre compound boasting two modern homes awaits. The main home was built in 2010, and the guest house followed shortly after in 2014, both by famed local builder David Eckenroth. Peace and tranquility, just minutes from the National Park's west entrance gate. The main house is a blank canvas ready to be transformed into your dream retreat. With an open-concept layout, sleek concrete floors, lofty ceilings, and outdoor shower, the space awaits your design direction and showcases panoramic views in every direction. The guest home offers privacy and versatility, with its own deck showcasing awe-inspiring views and outdoor bathing under the stars. Inside, custom cabinetry and polished concrete floors echo the main house's contemporary footprint. This space serves as an ideal guest suite, art studio, or office, just waiting for the finishing touches to be added. Immerse yourself in the quiet and serene ambiance of Joshua Tree, with expert planting of intentional and curated desert vegetation, iconic desert topography including boulders and Joshua trees. This compound is a true escape, offering endless potential for investors, artists, or anyone seeking a modern sanctuary in the desert.
