About This Home

As of December 2025

$102k GROSS EARNINGS FOR 2024. Villa Sueños: Beautifully reimaged midcentury (1958), remodeled and updated, inside and out, with open beam ceilings, sliding veneer doors, huge single-light windows, exquisite finishes throughout. Surrounded by boulders and walking distance to government land to lose yourself in the labyrinth of rocks. Elevated above the basin below, offering views of the ancient dry lake bed in the distance. Exterior features include cozy shade porches, patio, picnic table, firepit, hot tub, swings and even a pomegranate, considered by many to be the tree of life. The detached garage can double as a studio, work-at-home office or be converted for additional living space. Magical dark skies with the millions of stars, the milky way and galaxies beyond, subtly illuminate the grounds at night, perfect for socializing, stargazing, meditating and drifting off into a dream called home.
