About This Home

As of July 2023

ANTHER MAJOR PRICE REDUCTION! MOTIVATED SELLER, NOW IS THE TIME TO MAKE AN OFFER ON: This large family home on 2+ acres in North Joshua Tree was built in 1990. The seller has started with some new windows and flooring, which can be easily finished with included materials, to the new buyer's liking. Great touches are brought to the forefront by the natural light that streams from many windows featuring expansive views in every direction. This all-electric home features wood-like tile flooring, modern interior paint colors, artfully wood-framed doorways, a wood-burning stove, and a split floor plan. Master is en suite with dual sinks and a walk-in closet. Short drive to the Joshua Tree National Park and a great location to enjoy the desert nights.
