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