About This Home
SKY RANCH SONORA: North Joshua Tree’s most sublime residence. Designed by renowned executive producer and visionary Chris Hanley, whose body-of-work over the last three decades has left an indelible imprint on modern culture – American Psycho & Spring Breakers to name two – in much the same manner that his more recent architectural visions in Joshua Tree have forever altered the Mojave Desert landscape. From The Invisible House to Sky Ranch Sonora and beyond emerge a modern urban design melding into the vast surrounding wilderness to create an unparalleled experience. Presently a permitted, high-grossing, year-round vacation rental, catering to the entertainment industry, the property can also be used as a private estate spread over 5 acres and fully-fenced for security. To the east stands government-owned land providing an additional privacy barrier. Custom pool, spa and sunbathing retreat positioned to gaze across undisturbed desert providing a true year-round indoor/outdoor environment. Wrap around patio perfect for yoga or retreats. Large enclosed private porch on the northside can be used variously as either office headquarters, a winter yoga room or an art, music or writing studio. Turnkey, fully-furnished, including a large collection of collectable original artwork featuring many films and more. In addition, the home is finished with state-of-the-art appliances, including a Nobilia/Leitch German kitchen, complete with Miele cooktop/oven and Bosch refrigerator and dishwasher. Bathrooms feature Duravit. Multi-zone Sonos audio throughout home and outdoors. Tall ceilings and open space lend to the serene interior flow. New solar system for efficient energy usage. Rare sprawling desert compound can accommodate family, guests or entourage. Professionally managed with multiple possible income streams; management can remain in place to facilitate immediate income. One of Joshua Tree’s most desired estates that has remained hidden from the mainstream now available for private viewings.
