About This Home

As of November 2025

Perched up on 5 vibrant acres next to a boulder dotted hill is this wonderful hillside retreat. Bordering at least 200 acres of public land (Bartlett Mtns) on the Joshua Tree mesa, this rare opportunity is not to be missed. Giant, south facing windows in the living room offer sweeping panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and landscape all the way to the town of Joshua Tree and beyond. In the winter, wake up early, light a fire in the wood stove and observe the community of critters and birds bopping around, beginning their day. Jack rabbits, quail and chipmunks frequently pop into view amongst a wide variety of native desert flora including choya, creosote, yucca and of course the iconic joshua tree. In the summer time, take a refreshing dip in the oversized stock tank pool and cool off before a short hike up the hill to be blown away by the majestic high desert sunset. This combination of BLM adjacent acreage, views, easy road access, and private seclusion with just 10 minute proximity to Joshua Tree and 15 min to Yucca Valley is unique for the area. The cabin itself has been fully upgraded and legalized as a permitted single family residence and short term rental. Complete with energy efficient windows and modern amenities including a mini split AC/ heat pump, EV charger outlet and updated electrical and plumbing. On top of that, a new solar power system and septic tank were recently installed with permits and paid off by the current owners. A shed attached to the back of the home also offers convenient and ample storage or could be a great workshop or studio space. With no shortage of useable land, the possibilities for much expansion and creativity are very real. Current owners enjoyed this cabin as a getaway retreat and lucrative airbnb rental. This cherished Shangri La will be delivered turnkey, fully furnished and is ready for its next care taker to make it their own.
