About This Home

Own Your Own Desert Dreamscape Step into the magic of the In-Ko-Pah Mountains—90+ acres of surreal desert canvas waiting for the next visionary to shape it. This isn’t just property, it’s a portal. At its heart stands the Desert View Tower, a California-registered landmark built between 1922–1928. Three stories of stone spiral upward to a 70-foot observation deck with jaw-dropping panoramas that feel infinite. The Boulder Park unfolds—an enchanted playground of psychedelic rock carvings by Merle Ratcliff, whimsical and timeless. On the land: three small homes for living, hosting, or income. Around you: limitless possibility. Think yoga retreats at sunrise, art residencies, performance spaces, wellness gatherings, stargazing festivals, or simply your private cosmic escape. The seller is offering seller financing with just $500K down and flexible interest-only terms for 5–7 years. That’s rare. That’s freedom. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own a landmark property that blends history, art, and raw desert energy into one sacred offering. If you’ve been waiting for a place to let your imagination—and your community—soar, this is it.
