A rare opportunity to own a stunning desert retreat with POOL AND SPA in the coveted Quail Springs area of Joshua Tree—just minutes from the park entrance, and with a backyard that directly borders Joshua Tree National Park itself. This remodeled 1 bedroom, 1 bath home blends sleek modern finishes with the raw beauty of its extraordinary setting, and is nestled on a roomy 2.5 acre parcel. The massive open-concept living area features polished concrete floors, soaring ceilings with exposed beams and ceiling fans, and expansive windows—including two sets of sliding glass doors that open to the patio—bringing panoramic National Park views into every corner of the home. The dining area includes built-in bench seating and continues into the beautifully updated kitchen with butcher block countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a deep farm-style sink. The bedroom is comfortably sized and includes its own mini-split and ceiling fan. The spacious bathroom feels spa-like with dual sinks, tiled floors, a large walk-in glass shower, and a separate soaking tub—perfect for unwinding after a day of hiking or stargazing. Outside, the magic of the desert comes alive. A wide concrete patio offers shaded seating under elegant pergolas and a built-in barbecue area. A private in-ground pool overlooks the National Park’s dramatic boulder-strewn vistas, while a secluded hot tub sits down a quiet concrete path for total relaxation beneath the stars. Homes like this—backing directly onto Joshua Tree National Park—are exceptionally rare. Here, you can live immersed in the landscape that draws visitors from around the world, with the park quite literally in your backyard. Book a showing to see this incredible gem for yourself!
