About This Home
As of January 2024Amazing 1957 homestead cabin that is now offering a solitary oasis in the heart of the desert. It encompasses 600 square feet of living space and is nestled on over 2 sprawling acres of beautiful desert land. This one bedroom, one bath haven boasts an inviting bath, a spacious kitchen, and a cozy living room, each window framing intimate views of the desert's beauty. It was designed with simplicity as its guiding principle, ensuring unparalleled comfort amidst this tranquil environment.
From every corner of this abode, panoramic desert vistas stretch out as far as the eye can see, fostering a profound sense of solitude. Here, the home becomes your sanctuary, allowing you to truly embrace the essence of desert living. Rooted in a commitment to energy conservation, this cabin empowers you to focus on life's essentials, your deepest priorities, and the pursuit of your dreams.
At its core, a groundbreaking power system harnesses an infinite source of energy with minimal consumption. Utilizing the sun's rays to illuminate the darkness, cool your sustenance, and provide energy as you see fit, it ensures warmth, never stored nor wasted, for your indoor soaking tub or the refreshing outdoor shower. You can unwind by the efficient, airtight woodstove or simply stargaze into the night sky.
This retreat is akin to a haven for writers, brimming with pure energy. Light up the burner for a cup of tea, settle in, and experience the desert as it was meant to be—an unfenced sanctuary and a comforting place to call your own.
