Listed for $1.9 million, an eye-popping contemporary home in Joshua Tree, CA, is sure to turn some heads.

The super-cool “C-House” design of the newly built home is as Instagram-worthy as its nearby counterpart, said to be enjoying smashing success as a popular, short-term rental on Airbnb.

“What makes this home so unique is that it has an unusual architectural design that offers a courtyard on three sides and an open side that faces Joshua Tree National Park,” says listing agent Bryan Wynwood, of Joshua Tree Modern. “The layout of the property is incredible, with each room flowing into the other. All of the rooms have sliding-glass doors that open to the courtyard, so you can socialize inside and outside.”

The three-bedroom, resort-style retreat boasts a stylish, 1,869-square-foot, minimalist interior.

A cozy living room has a modern, gas fireplace and a sleek wall of windows that overlooks the outdoor oasis and pool.

Nearby, a bright kitchen is bathed in natural light from the sliding-glass doors. Beautiful hanging light fixtures are designed to complement the gorgeous natural wood walls. And the room’s striking focal point is a marble, waterfall island that connects to a built-in waterfall table that seats eight.

The listing notes that the “resort-like accommodations” all have floor-to-ceiling glass doors that access the backyard, where a “perfectly placed pool and spa for private sunbathing” await. The property is situated on an oversized lot, where views of the national park can be enjoyed from a hidden courtyard.

“It is located on the south side of Joshua Tree and is close to the park,” Wynwood says. “It sits on a 5-acre parcel, which is also unusual. Most of the properties in the area are on a quarter-acre, with 2.5 acres being the largest.”

If the next owner wants to rent out the place, “a reliable property management company with proven track record is already in place,” according to the listing.

The unusual space would be ideal for a vacation-home buyer.

“Or it could be someone from the Los Angeles metro area working remotely in the entertainment or high-tech field, so it could be used as a primary residence,” Wynwood notes. “I see it more as a primary residence. I think the next owner will be looking for a place on the south side of Joshua Tree. The unique design and close proximity to the national park will also be something they are looking for.”
