About This Home
This desert cabin is full of possibilities. The location is ideal with 360 amazing views. Away from the noise and chaos of the city. It sits at the end of the street, surrounded by government land to the back, across from the gorgeous Bouillon Mountains and endless miles of preserved desert.
The cabin is in need of work, currently not in livable condition. The bones are good, there's new framing and insulation, good roof. Bigger than most of the original cabins, it's 768 square feet with solid concrete slab throughout and extending for a large back patio area.
Water must be either hauled or drill a well. Nearby properties have found hot springs.
There is a permit on record for electricity, potentially allowing the possibility to connect without converting to an SFR.
5 acres of desert beauty. Bring your tools and imagination. Enjoy a peace that few can imagine.
The possibilities are endless. Buy now while it's still a hidden gem. Cash only.
