However, your opinion of the desert may shift dramatically when looking at this 1,280-square-foot home that’s listed for $779,000 in Joshua Tree, California.
“Beautiful minimalist retreat featuring 2.5 large acres with forever views in gorgeous Joshua Tree, the listing on Realtor.com says. “Exquisitely reimagined by the architect / owner in a desert-luxe style; this 3 bedroom, 2 bath turnkey daydream in the Hi-Desert will take your breath away. Enjoy this premier location with pristine desert landscape and gorgeous views of the Joshua Tree National Park mountains.”
The home shows that desert houses can come with peace and quiet and the vast blue sky.

“The current owner bought it as a fixer,” listing agent Faisal Alserri told Realtor.com. “She’s done quite a lot of work.”
Features in and around the home include:

“Just minutes from the Village cafes, restaurants, and boutiques, and a short drive to the Joshua Tree National Park main gate..”
