73009 Joshua Tree Street

Property Overview
Discover a rare architectural retreat designed by noted architect Charles L. Martin, offering privacy, panoramic mountain views, and energy-smart living in a premier South Palm Desert location--just minutes from El Paseo. Set on nearly half an acre, this historically significant 2-bedroom, 3-bath home with den/TV room and versatile bonus space lives as a sophisticated yet playful desert escape. Striking ceiling lines and custom window geometry flood the interiors with natural light while maintaining comfort throughout the day. Thoughtful upgrades honor the home's mid-century modern character, including Fleetwood sliders, dual-pane low-E windows, a louvered entry skylight, and a freshly repainted exterior. A standout feature is the Tesla Solar Roof with two Powerwall batteries, delivering meaningful energy savings and reliable backup power--an exceptional advantage in the desert. Outdoors, a saltwater pool and spa with both heating and cooling anchor a private oasis surrounded by mature landscaping and a citrus grove. Inside, the updated kitchen features new counters, backsplash, fixtures, lighting, and a Thermador induction cooktop. The media room is designed for immersive entertainment with a 100' LG laser projector, motorized screen, and 8-speaker Dolby Atmos sound system. The primary suite offers a walk-in closet, dual vanities, and a spa-like wet room with soaking tub and walk-in shower. A private guest suite and flexible bonus room with Murphy bed easily adapt as guest quarters, studio, or fitness space. Additional highlights include generous parking with extended driveway, two-car garage plus golf cart or RV parking, and light-touch smart-home features such as automated shades, app-controlled pool system, and integrated climate and security. Select furnishings may be available for buyers seeking an effortless transition into desert living. With no HOA and true architectural pedigree, this exceptional property blends timeless design, modern efficiency, and privacy.
