Discover the ultimate modern escape at the Sierra Vista House, an ultra-modern container home nestled in the rugged outback of the Big Bend region in Terlingua, Texas. Offering a unique contrast to the surrounding rustic adobes and Old West ranch homes, this neoteric lodging provides a stylish sanctuary amidst a landscape of endless mountain and desert vistas.
Custom-designed from two recycled 20-foot shipping containers, the Sierra Vista House is thoughtfully converted into a contemporary living space. The interior features a dedicated living area, dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen, all accented by modern design, styling, and art both inside and out. This home is designed for two guests and includes one bedroom featuring a comfortable king-sized bed and one bathroom.
While the property focuses on a minimalist, modern aesthetic, it ensures total comfort with full air-conditioning, heating, and reliable electric power. Guests can relax on the shaded patio or explore the surrounding 20-acre fossil-strewn property. Please note that potable water is trucked in and stored in holding tanks; while there is ample water for your stay, guests are kindly asked to conserve its use.
Located just one mile northwest of the world-famous Terlingua Ghost Town and twenty miles from the Chisos Mountains in Big Bend National Park, the property offers breathtaking views that stretch across the Ghost Town and into Mexico. Guests can easily walk or drive into town to explore historic ruins, enjoy live music, or join an impromptu jam session at the old trading post. For those seeking adventure, Big Bend National Park and Big Bend Ranch State Park are nearby for jeep tours, horseback riding, guided hikes, and river trips.
Practical Information:
Whether you want to marvel at the night skies, watch stunning sunsets, or enjoy a controlled campfire, the Sierra Vista House is the perfect base for doing as much or as little as you like in the heart of the Texas desert.
