About This Home
As of October 2025Where boulders rise and mountains frame the horizon—this design-forward desert retreat offers privacy, beauty, and soul. Tucked on the border of Joshua Tree and Twentynine Palms, this 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom home sits on 5 serene acres with panoramic views of the Bullion Mountains to the north and boulder-dotted ridgelines of Panorama Heights to the south. With 360 natural beauty and a sense of quiet seclusion, this is a rare offering that blends midcentury lines with modern ease. This home is offered fully furnished (with a few exclusions), making it an ideal option for those seeking a primary residence, vacation getaway, or a high-performing short-term rental. Inside, the open floor plan creates a bright, flowing interior, where every window offers a stunning desert view. The remodeled kitchen features sleek quartz countertops, modern cabinetry, and an open connection to the dining and living areas. The Jack-and-Jill bathroom opens to both the bedroom and dining area, offering flexibility for guests and functionality for daily living. A sliding glass door leads from the living room to a shaded front concrete patio—perfectly placed for morning sunrises and cool evening breezes. Outdoors, the property has been thoughtfully sculpted to create a backyard experience like no other—complete with meandering walking paths, shade structures, a jacuzzi, lounge and dining areas, and mature desert vegetation. Partially fenced for added privacy and comfort, this home is ideal for quiet retreats, weekend getaways, or full-time desert living. And with a shared well, you'll enjoy the benefit of no water bill. Just minutes from Mas o Menos, Joshua Tree Saloon, downtown shops, and the National Park entrance—this is a gem that offers the best of both worlds: close to everything, yet tucked far enough away to feel like a private escape. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a truly special piece of the desert. Call today to schedule a private showing—this one won’t last.
