About This Home

As of May 2025

PRICE DROP! Enchanting Joshua Tree village property! A mid-century gem with artistic contemporary accents, this property blends style, function and fun. Iconic desert flora grace the front of the house where stunning views of distant desert outcroppings can be seen. This epic 2-bedroom, 2-bath getaway is a short hop from the Joshua Tree scene. It’s walking distance to the all action in downtown Joshua Tree, and it’s a quick drive to the Joshua Tree National Park entrance. Enjoy morning coffee in the warm and inviting kitchen, then go hiking and rock climbing in the national park. Later, entertain guests with a meal in the spacious dining area or on the back patio, and then relax in the spa under the stars or head downtown to visit Joshua Tree’s art galleries or the Joshua Tree Saloon. Live large in this to-die-for private oasis with fun touches like the whimsical desert wall mural, ample living space, concrete floors, stainless steel kitchen appliances, and a laundry room with high-end Electrolux washer and dryer. Unwind here and savor the pleasure of escaping to the desert while still enjoying the convenience of being on a paved road near all the amenities, and having cable television/internet and natural gas—a real plus, and this one has a proven record as a successful short-term rental, an excellent investment opportunity. Don't wait to view this epic home; come see it today!
