Retractable floor-to-ceiling glass opens the main living areas directly to the grounds, creating a continuous relationship between the interior, pool, and surrounding landscape.A custom butterfly-shaped pool and integrated spa anchor the private outdoor spaces. Covered patios, an outdoor shower, dining and lounge areas, and broad mountain views create a complete environment for indoor-outdoor living. The oversized finished garage provides valuable flex space and is currently arranged as an additional game room and gathering area.Joshua Tree National Park is within minutes of the property. Downtown Joshua Tree and Pioneertown are also easily reached, while downtown Yucca Valley offers convenient access to dining, shopping, and everyday essentials.Already established as an Airbnb Luxe property with an extensive rental history, The Monarch holds a strong position as a short-term rental investment.
