About This Home

As of November 2020

Private mountain getaway - 2 bedroom A-Frame Chalet complete with natural stone fireplace and pellet stove. There's a huge mid-century style bedroom addition that offers so much space and light. Enjoy the endless views from everywhere inside and outside the home. Floor to ceiling windows flood the home with light. Enjoy hiking in your own yard! There's soo much to explore and enjoy. It's a perfect place to make lots of new memories. Come to visit, you'll want to stay. It's nestled in the Santa Rosa Mountains just 17 miles from the valley floor and famous El Paseo (the Rodeo Drive of the desert). Not only great shopping there, but lots of fine dining is as well. If you want privacy and peace from the busy workaday world, this little bit of heaven may be just what you need to unwind.
