About This Home
As of May 2022There's something for everyone at this extremely unique 3 bedroom/2 bath property with an UNDERGROUND BUNKER!!!!, nestled on 3.4 acres in Old Town Joshua Tree! As you approach from paved Sunburst Ave, you'll be stunned by the nearby views of the Copper Mountains. Huge saguaros greet you as you explore the fully fenced property. An inviting covered front porch leads you into the home, where you'll find yourself in an updated kitchen with plenty of cabinetry, a pantry, gas stove, stonework accents, and a large bank of windows letting in light and epic views. The spacious living room features rustic wood ceilings and a wood stove for cozy heating. You'll notice the first bathroom, conveniently located right off the living room. The den enjoys masonry accents and adds even more living space to the home. The first and second bedrooms are comfortably sized and share jack-and-jill access to the second bathroom, which features a walk-in shower. The massive master bedroom enjoys front doors leading out to the backyard. Follow the spiral staircase up to a huge upper deck area on the roof of the home, which provides a fantastic addition to the outdoor living space. Imagine entertaining friends here, or taking in the incredible sunrises and sunsets the desert is known for. But that's not all – as you tour the home, you'll also find a staircase that leads you down into an extensive underground bunker area! Constructed of durable cement block and featuring both power and plumbing, this is far more than a basement. You'll find three large rooms, including one with a massive skylight and hatch that opens to the outside, in addition to the beginnings of an unfinished bathroom that has already been plumbed for a toilet, shower, tub and sink. The possibilities are endless in this space – finish it up to use as a second living space, use it for storage out of the desert heat, or just as a cool conversation piece for when your friends visit. As if all this weren't enough, the home also features a large workshop area and laundry hookups. This cool property is only minutes away from all the attractions of Joshua Tree, so book a showing today before you miss out!
