Property Description
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.
