About this home

Discover rustic elegance and desert tranquility in this beautifully remodeled and permitted 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom home, originally a classic cabin, now transformed into a stylish retreat. Situated on a little over 7 acres (4.53 acres + additional 2.5-acre parcel), this property offers space, privacy, and unmatched views of the Morongo Valley landscape. Inside, the home features thoughtful upgrades that blend modern comfort with cabin charm with an open-concept layout, including a roll up door that brings the outside in! The main part of the home has stained concrete floors to keep it cool in the summer, and the kitchen has a wood burning stove for extra heat to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. There's also mini split for heat and a/c for even more climate control. Did we mention that it's on its own well??? Installed in 2013, and has just been inspected. The spacious bedroom opens to wide desert skies and serene mornings with access to the south facing patio. Step outside to your private outdoor living area, designed for entertaining or peaceful evenings under the stars. Relax in the hot tub while taking in views of the surrounding hills and open desert—perfect for stargazing or soaking after a long day. If you're looking for a weekend escape, full-time residence, or unique investment property, this one-of-a-kind desert gem offers a rare combination of character, land, and lifestyle. Just minutes from Joshua Tree, Pioneertown, and the Big Morongo Canyon Preserve, and a short drive "down the hill" to Palm Springs and the low desert!
