$2,414The year was 1940, and someone in Twentynine Palms had the right idea--to build two Spanish bungalows that embraced the romance of the desert: fresh air, plain living and a sky full of stars. Today, that vision lives on in Josh + Tam, a thoughtfully restored two-home compound set on a single parcel in the heart of Twentynine Palms. A personal project of Krieglelein Design, the creative team behind the interiors of the nearby Ramsey 29 motel, the homes have been carefully reimagined with an emphasis on creativity, simplicity, and the quiet rhythms of desert living. Though nearly identical in footprint, each home carries its own distinct mood. Josh opens naturally to morning light and the built-in dining banquette, while Tam feels slightly more secluded, with a stronger connection to its surrounding courtyard and landscape. Original vaulted ceilings create volume and light throughout, while built-in dining banquettes, sleeping nooks, curated original and vintage artwork, and layered textiles give the interiors warmth and character. Outdoor living remains central to the experience. Mature desert landscaping, decomposed granite walkways and sitting areas, ocotillo-covered pergolas, and a cedar soaking tub, create a series of private outdoor spaces designed for gathering, retreat, and long desert evenings outdoors. Each home is separately fenced with its own entrance, offering flexibility for personal use, guests, or hospitality income. The property also includes off-street parking and a detached garage integrated into the compound layout. Updated systems include new Spanish tile roofs, mini-split heating and cooling, tankless water heaters, keyless entry, and timed irrigation, which supports the established landscape. Offered fully furnished, including original artwork, curated vintage furnishings, and collected design elements integral to the identity of the spaces, Josh + Tam represents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully realized desert compound where architecture, art, landscape, and atmosphere combine to create a place of repose, purpose, and belonging. One block to Campbell Hill Bakery, Grnd Sqrl, and Freedom Plaza. Short walking distance to Kitchen in the Desert and all shops. Ten minutes from west entrance to Joshua Tree National Park.
