Dome, sweet dome! Perched high above the desert in the private mountain community of Pinyon Crest, this one-of-a-kind geodesic dome home sits on a full acre of natural mountain land, offering a rare combination of distinctive architecture, sweeping views, and peaceful mountain living.
The dome's unique geometry isn't just visually striking—it also offers practical advantages. Its efficient form, open interior, and abundant natural light create a comfortable, airy living environment, while curved high ceilings complement natural air circulation. Extensive windows and triangular skylights bring the surrounding mountain landscape into nearly every living space.
Thoughtfully remodeled while preserving its original character, new Navarra Maple luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout, while a sleek electric fireplace wrapped in geometric porcelain tile provides a dramatic focal point. The open living and dining area flows through sliding glass doors onto the surrounding deck—ideal for entertaining, morning coffee, or watching mountain sunsets.
The remodeled kitchen features quartz countertops, shaker cabinetry, a butcher-block eat-at counter, new stainless GE appliances, and a walk-in pantry. The main level includes two bedrooms and an updated bath with quartz counters, shaker cabinetry, and a glass-enclosed shower. One bedroom features large picture windows framing mountain views, while the other opens through French doors to a private deck.
An original spiral staircase leads to the lofted primary suite, where skylights offer views of the night sky. The private upper deck captures panoramic mountain vistas, while the remodeled primary bath features dual vanities, quartz counters, a glass shower, and a soaking tub positioned to enjoy the scenery.
Recent updates: new HVAC system, water heater, kitchen and bath plumbing, roof shingles, skylights, Milgard windows and sliders, GE appliances, electric fireplace, and interior finishes.
Set on 1 acre of native vegetation and wildlife, hiking is right at hand. Pinyon Crest offers DG roads, community wells, and a gated entrance.
~20 minutes from Palm Desert and El Paseo, ~40 minutes from Idyllwild. Enjoy cooler mountain temps, star-filled nights, and San Jacinto Mountain access. Perfect full-time home, weekend escape, or vacation getaway!
