About This Home

As of March 2021

Joshua Tree Cabin located on 5 acres. Original 1952 homesteader cabin expanded to 1,040 square feet, 2 bed/1 bath, fully permitted, home in 2007 with modern upgraded electrical, plumbing, insulation, etc. House was recently remodeled again, new paint on all surfaces inside and out, new butcher block counters and sink in kitchen. Lot can be split into two 2.5 acre parcels (buyer to check). Northern half of parcel where house is located was cleared for original owner to keep livestock. Southern half retains virgin vegetation, including a dozen joshua trees, where one could build an additional dwelling. Western boundary of parcel is clearly demarcated with 4 tall florescent orange posts. All additional corners and boundaries are marked with real estate signs – Sunny Sands Dr is north boundary, Desert Acres Rd east boundary, Narnia Way south boundary – drive and walk around perimeter to get feel for expanse. Walking distance to Noah Purifoy Outdoor Desert Art Museum. One block from paved road - Border Ave. The small 1/1 464 square foot cabin directly across the street sold last month for $275k. This 1,040sf home with one more bedroom, very large bathroom, central living room, tile floors and spectacular yard is being offered at $209k.
