THE INVISIBLE HOUSE IN JOSHUA TREE IS AVAILABLE TO RENT FOR $95,000 A MONTH

Despite its tongue-in-cheek name, you’ve probably seen the iconic Invisible House in Joshua Tree before. Celebrities like Lizzo, Diplo, and Demi Lovato have stayed at the property, and it’s been featured on Netflix’s The Most Amazing Vacation Rentals and the newest season of Selling Sunset. Though countless influencers have captured content at the home, the beloved residence in the Mojave Desert is basically an Instagram celebrity in its own right (it’s even got its own page with just under 44,000 followers). And now, the one of a kind property is available to rent for $95,000 a month.

Designed by architecture Tomas Osinski and its current owner, Chris Hanley, a film producer who has developed projects such as The Virgin Suicides, American Psycho, and Spring Breakers, the rectangular home’s most notable feature is without a doubt its mirror-clad exterior. It’s from this unique element that the home gets its name; reflecting the panoramic landscape around it, the house itself appears to vanish.

Once inside, massive floor-to-ceiling windows further dissolve the distinction between the indoors and the outside. The unique property is cantilevered about 100 feet in the air and faces west so people inside can experience the full desert sunset.

Inside the Invisible House in Joshua Tree, a 100-foot pool spans the width of the living room, offering an extraordinary way to look out into the surrounding desert. Besides the pool, the interiors of the 5,500-square-foot home include four bedrooms, three baths, and a 222-square-foot projection wall. “There are only a few spaces in the world that capture architectural brilliance, interior design magnificence, and environmental harmony all at once,” the listing description reads. “Now is the chance to rent something truly remarkable, seemingly unattainable.”

The rental offering comes just under two years after the home originally listed for sale in January 2023. With an asking price of $17,950,000—an option that is still on the table—the home is the most expensive in Joshua Tree, according to Realtor.com. “Bringing the Invisible House to market for the first time ever is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” Aaron Kirman and Matt Adamo, the property’s listing agents from AKG | Christie’s International Real Estate, said in a statement when the home first listed.

However, for those who don’t want to buy or rent the property, the home is currently available for short-term stays as well and bookable through Fieldtrip. Prices range depending on the dates booked, but average between $2,000 to $7,000 per night. Should the home sell or rent to a long-term tenant, it’s likely this option would disappear.

The mirror house’s location within the largely untouched surroundings (it’s set on 90 acres of land) only make its presence that much more striking. According to the property’s website, this is the largest privately owned parcel of land bordering Joshua Tree National Park. Designed to center the environment, it’s unsurprising that many eco-friendly elements are also found throughout the home, including a foam roof and solar panels. And as the listing agents added, “This architectural triumph located in the middle of the desert provides unique intangibles that can only be experienced at the property itself.”
