About the Listing OC16700 - OCLEJUSTI,CDAR-47999

A rare architectural statement built directly into Joshua Tree’s iconic boulders, The Prism House lives like a private nature reserve — a seamless extension of the boulders themselves. Set on 5 acres that back up to protected, boulder-strewn land, it lives like 100+, offering complete privacy and an otherworldly connection to the landscape, all just 10 minutes from town. Designed by URBARC Architects and developed by KUD Development, this one-of-a-kind retreat was completed in 2022 using the cutting-edge RSG3D concrete and foam system — delivering unmatched strength, insulation, and energy efficiency. Every inch reflects design intention and craftsmanship: JennAir appliances, Eso Surfaces custom terrazzo tile, Fleetwood sliders, riftsawn oak cabinetry and doors, electric window blinds, custom LED lighting, and a built-in library with a reading nook that frames the desert light. The layout features dual primary suites plus a powder room, balancing flexibility for both personal use and high-end short-term rental income. Already a six-figure income generator, the home comes fully equipped with its branding, professional photography and video, Instagram presence, and an established luxury rental operation — making it a true turnkey opportunity. Recognized on a global stage, The Prism House earned the Platinum Winner in Household Architecture at the International Architecture & Design Awards 2025 (IADA) and the People’s Choice Award 2024 from the LOOP Design Awards. Qualifying for Airbnb Luxe (one of only a few in the desert) further elevates its prestige and earning potential. A rare work of architecture designed to disappear into the desert — and yet, impossible to forget.
