Welcome to Sky Ranch Noir, a design-forward desert oasis in the heart of North Joshua Tree. Created by executive producer Chris Hanley---best known for shaping cult classics like American Psycho and Spring Breakers---this one-of-a-kind compound blends cinematic edge with serene desert luxury.
This single-level home offers five bedrooms (three with ensuite baths) and an expansive open-concept layout perfect for groups to unwind in style. Whether you're gathered in the airy living room or cooking in the modern kitchen, every space flows seamlessly into the next, surrounded by breathtaking desert views.
Step outside and you'll discover the true soul of the property: a private resort-like backyard designed for peak relaxation and play. The custom pool and hot tub overlook uninterrupted Mojave vistas, while a wraparound patio sets the scene for sunrise yoga or sunset cocktails. A sauna, a pickleball and basketball court offer wellness and fun at every turn. As the sun sets, gather around the fire pit, settle into the hammock, or watch the stars emerge in the famously dark desert skies.
