About this property
Avira · Pool, Hot Tub, Pickleball, Outdoor Movies
Summary:
Avira pairs clean architectural lines with a handcrafted streak: faux stone in the kitchen and hearth, branch-like shelving, light everywhere. Outside, five fenced acres of Sunfair Heights hold a pool with built-in barstools, an in-ground hot tub, a pickleball court and a stargazing net. Play a few games, take a seat at the pool's bar stools, then roll the outdoor projector or lie back in the net and count satellites. Two bedrooms, a record player, and plenty to do at home.
The Space:
Avira pairs clean architectural lines with an expressive, handcrafted style: faux stone textures in the kitchen and hearth, sculptural branch-like shelving and plenty of natural light. It sits on five private acres in North Joshua Tree's Sunfair Heights, with a fully fenced backyard built around a pool, hot tub, pickleball court, stargazing net and outdoor movie setup. A king primary with a chaise lounge and a second bedroom with two queens share a plaster-and-brass bathroom, a good fit for a couple or a small group who want lots to do without leaving home. Drop the needle on a record before movie night.

-Outdoor Amenities-
The fully fenced backyard sits within 5 private acres, private but still open to the desert. The in-ground pool and hot tub are at the center, with built-in barstools for warm afternoons and evenings under the stars. Nearby, a stargazing net is a one-of-a-kind place to stretch out at night, the outdoor projector turns the yard into a movie theater, and a propane fire pit with cushioned benches draws everyone together at sunset. A dome lounge, a propane BBQ and a private pickleball court add more ways to spend the day, and patio chairs at the front of the home look out over the desert.
-Living Area-
A plush sofa and a smart TV center the living room. A vintage-style stove sits on the textured stone hearth as a decorative focal point, a record player and record collection set the mood, and the custom branch-like shelving is a sculptural feature in its own right.
-Kitchen and Dining-
The kitchen centers on a large island with bar seating, with open shelving and warm wood tones. It is fully equipped with modern appliances and cookware and stocked with spices, olive oil and balsamic vinegar, and the coffee station has Joshua Tree Coffee Co. whole bean coffee, a grinder, a drip coffee maker, a French press, sugars and tea. A spacious dining table with statement lighting sits just off the kitchen.
-Bedrooms and Bathrooms-
The primary bedroom has a king bed, an open layout, large windows and a chaise lounge. The second bedroom has two queen beds, a smart TV and a desk area. The bathroom has smooth plaster finishes, warm brass fixtures and a walk-in shower.
-Surrounding Area-
Avira is in North Joshua Tree's Sunfair Heights. The Transmission sculpture, downtown Joshua Tree, the Integratron and the West Entrance to Joshua Tree National Park make good outings, and downtown Joshua Tree has local cafés, boutiques, galleries and a farmers market.
