ABOUT

Modern Masterpiece in the Heart of the Desert Wonder and innovation unite in the dramatic Marmol Radziner Desert House - a celebrated marvel of mid-century modern architecture that is the brainchild of renowned architects Leo Marmol and Ron Radziner (creators of the Beaudry in DTLA, among others). The Desert House, a prefab prototype constructed of recycled steel, concrete, and wood, encompasses 2105 interior square feet, with a total square footage of 2400 including outdoor covered living spaces. Sited on a five-acre parcel with an adjacent 2.5 acreage available for expansion, the main house includes two bedrooms, a full bath, kitchen, living room, and great room with an attached covered deck. An additional protected corridor leads to the guest house, offering one bedroom, one bath and a studio/yoga/pool room. Mounted on a recessed concrete block foundation, the house gives the illusion of a sleek, modern abode floating above the desert floor. Open walkways and floor-to-ceiling, triple-paned glass windows create a seamless indoor/outdoor experience throughout the incredible floorplan. In addition, the L-shaped home is strategically positioned to capitalize on premier views of the peak of Mount San Jacinto and the panoramic San Gorgonio mountains. A concrete patio connects the pool area, a true oasis amidst the breathtaking desert and mountain vistas. The detached carport purposefully allows one to leave the world behind on arrival, another of the thoughtful details attributed to this masterpiece. Crafted to be environmentally responsible, the Desert House is cleverly positioned within the landscape and employs solar technologies, concrete floors, and sunshades. The possibilities of ownership are limitless - create a compound on the surrounding acreage or savor the solitude that comes from owning a quiet, spacious retreat. A trophy property featured in numerous publications and celebrating the modern architecture of one of the world's most prominent firms, the home has also been used as a site for filming, carrying the potential of $70k+ in annual filming rights income. A true oasis in the heart of Desert Hot Springs, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a truly magnificent, architecturally significant home.
