About This Home

As of April 2023

Most Affordable Fully-Permitted Hillside Home in Joshua Tree: Rare hillside house with no neighbors on adjoining lots and views for miles! Morning coffee on the front porch to watch the sunrise illuminate the mountains in the National Park or sit around the firepit at night and gaze at the stars and galaxies glimmering above. Remote and rural yet only minutes to downtown Joshua Tree. Situated on an ancient volcanic, basalt hillside, above the scattered homes in the distance below. Similar locations and privacy are rarely offered at such an affordable price. Spread over 2+ acres, the home is zoned SFR and can be used as a primary residence, vacation home, short-term or long-term rental; Sellers used it as their private retreat for respite from the city. Purchase includes a permitted container for extra storage or a workshop that has been outfitted with electricity, along with an additional storage shed with a finished paver floor that can be used as a rustic office space, art studio or practice room for your favorite instrument as the departing owner preferred. Home has central AC/Heating to get you through summer or winter, along with a wood stove (that can be easily removed if desired to expand the footprint of the living room for extra living space). Internet is DSL – not satellite dish – for a stable connection. While the property includes many attributes, one of the finest are the panoramic views forever that will never disappear.
