A well-known residence that seemingly vanishes into its surroundings just popped up for rent in Joshua Tree, CA.
The concealed casa blends so well into its rocky environs that a potential renter may have to squint to see it.
Known as the “Invisible House,” the mirrored residence was designed by film producer Chris Hanley and Frank Gehry collaborator Tomas Osinski.
Now available to rent for $95,000 a month, the three-bedroom home measures in at 5,470 square feet and sits on a 67.5-acre lot of desert landscape.
It’s served as a rental in the past. Famous short-term residents include Demi Lovato, who stayed over for a long weekend in 2020.
Back then, the going rate was $2,500 a night.
But if you’d rather not hassle with a vacation rental booking, you can lock the place up for a month—or longer.
“There are only a few spaces in the world that capture architectural brilliance, interior design magnificence, and environmental harmony all at once,” the listing details contend.
“Now is the chance to rent something truly remarkable, seemingly unattainable.”

Resembling a large, mirrored, rectangular container, the house has 12-foot ceilings and plenty of room for private enjoyment or entertaining. A splashy highlight is the interior 100-foot, solar-heated swimming pool that runs along the home’s west wall.
Movie nights under the stars are are a uniquely dramatic affair here, thanks to the 224-square-foot white wall designed for screening films at the end of the pool.
In the primary suite, highlights include a resort-style bath with a soaking tub, floating vanities, and a rain shower. The home is even equipped with special filters for dust, bacteria, and virus eradication.
It might be a tough place to stay during summer months when temperatures regularly crest 100 degrees.
And if you enjoy your stay, you can always place an offer to buy the place outright. It’s still available for $17,950,000, an ask that hasn’t changed since the home was initially listed in 2023.
