About This Home

Imagine owning this stunning triplex in the heart of Joshua Tree, where high-desert beauty meets modern comfort. This property sits in a prime area of Joshua Tree, one minute to downtown, a quick hike to Coyote Hole, three minutes to the Section 6 trailhead, and four minutes to the National Park entrance. Residents enjoy world-class hiking, climbing, and stargazing, then return to a private desert sanctuary.
Native landscaping, irrigation, and subtle lighting frame the grounds, with pathways leading to secluded seating areas perfect for coffee or stargazing. Each apartment has its own driveway and patio, while a welcoming common yard encourages gatherings or quiet relaxation.
Upgraded infrastructure includes a new three-meter electric panel, shared water main, covered carport, dedicated storage, and common laundry with hook ups for washer and dryer. All units are freshly updated. Apartment One: Spacious two-bed, one-bath with new flooring, quartz-top kitchen, full suite of new appliances, four-head mini split system, and propane tankless water heater. Apartment Two: Two-bed, one-bath with crisp finishes, new appliances, updated countertop, heat/AC, propane cooking and water heater. Apartment Three: Smart layout with new carpet and flooring, fresh paint, rooftop dual-pack HVAC, propane cooking and water heater.
Private patios invite morning yoga or evening barbecues, and the park-like common yard balances community and solitude. This triplex is an exceptional investment or multigenerational retreat: separate driveways, upgraded utilities, and low-maintenance landscaping simplify management. Live in one unit and rent the others, or tap the thriving vacation-rental market (per local regulations). With stylish updates, easy upkeep, and unbeatable proximity to Joshua Tree National Park, this property delivers income potential and desert magic in equal measure.
