About This Home
Tucked away on five private acres just ten minutes from downtown Joshua Tree, this hidden gem is a creative’s dreamscape — where art, nature, and possibility converge.
What began as an original block-built recreational cabin has evolved into a thoughtfully reimagined desert retreat, blending vintage charm with modern comforts. The main cabin offers upgraded essentials including a new kitchen with stove, sink, refrigerator, and pantry, plus washer and dryer in the large shed hooked up and ready to go. The beginnings of a primary suite and full bath are in place, ready for your personal touch to bring the vision to life.
Outdoors, inspiration flows freely. A covered patio serves as the perfect space for painting, gathering, or dining beneath the stars. An original 1960s camper has been transformed into a cozy guest suite with heating, cooling, and a fully remodeled functioning bathroom. Two large shipping containers expand the creative potential — one currently used for storage, the other waiting to become your next art studio, gym, or meditation space.
With public water, a brand-new 200 AMP electrical panel, and room to grow, this property offers both comfort and endless opportunity. Whether you’re seeking a private retreat, an artist’s compound, or a place to build your future desert home, this is where your Joshua Tree story begins. Zoned Recreational Cabin (Rec Cabin), not Single Family Residential (SFR) This property is available for purchase CASH ONLY - will not qualify for a loan.
