Reflective glass mirrors Joshua Trees, changing skies, and distant mountains at Expeditions - a fully turnkey modern desert retreat and active short-term rental on 32.3 acres (per assessor). A two-bedroom, two-bath main residence and separate one-bedroom, one-bath ADU totaling bring together distinctive modular architecture, expansive views, and professional vacation-rental management by Homestead Modern. The 792 SF main residence and 528 SF detached ADU offer a combined 1,320 SF, excluding the laundry/storage structure.
Large windows connect the interiors to the surrounding landscape, while dark cabinetry, warm natural finishes, and curated furnishings complement the clean architectural lines. Each residence offers its own kitchen and living space, providing flexibility for gathering with friends and family while maintaining privacy.
Outdoor dining is a defining experience here. Beneath the pergola, extraordinary views stretch across seemingly endless raw desert, scattered Joshua Trees, sculptural stone buttes, and layers of mountains reaching toward San Jacinto, with seasonal snow highlighting the distant peaks. The scale and depth of this setting deserve to be experienced in person. A built-in barbecue, hot tub, cowboy-tub wet deck, outdoor shower, and propane fire pit complete the outdoor retreat.
Offered fully furnished and equipped, the property includes a separate laundry and storage structure supporting vacation-rental operations. Solar, SCE electricity, onsite water service, and propane complement the existing infrastructure.
For investors and developers considering a phased investment approach, Expeditions also offers a larger creative vision. A planet-inspired design master plan contemplates a nine-lot subdivision with paired residences, connecting trails, stargazing spaces, and outdoor gathering areas woven into the desert terrain. The two existing residences, conceived as Jupiter 1 and Jupiter 2, introduce that architectural story today.
Available conceptual plans, survey materials, geotechnical and percolation reports, and subdivision-planning documentation provide a starting point for evaluating the broader concept. Acquire the turnkey retreat and existing rental operation while exploring potential expansion over time.
A distinctive offering for buyers seeking a Joshua Tree-area vacation home, turnkey short-term rental investment, or modern desert compound with room for a longer-term vision. Rental projections are available.
