***THE WORLD-FAMOUS TILE HOUSE***
This artisan gem is a Mojave Desert cultural icon, located in the artsy community of Wonder Valley. It was nominated as one of the top 3 most creative homes in the world by Airbnb in 2016. This home has been used in fashion magazine photo shoots and music videos. Covered in artistic tile inside and out, this one-of-a-kind home takes assemblage to a new level as it whimsically blends pop-art, fine art, and spiritual references and artisan tile work into a very unique style, all its own. Every time you see it, you’re bound to see something new. This fully functional 2-bedroom, 1 bathroom home is situated on a very private 20-acre site, with unobstructed, panoramic views of Joshua Tree National Park, and the desert mountains, in every direction. Enjoy the starry nights from the private hot tub and patios. This home is served by a private water well and an owned-solar electric system. Seller will carry financing.
The Tile House has been a successful vacation rental and a full-time residence. Zoning allows for additional structures and the 2-parcel configuration of the site allows for an additional residence, with accessory buildings.
