Morongo Valley meets Big Bear meets Idlewild in this charming 1950's property on 5 wonderful acres. Tucked away between the dramatic landscapes of the Sand to Snow National Monument, this once-glorious desert retreat sits on 5 fully fenced acres, just waiting for someone with vision and a tool belt to bring it back to life. With panoramic views in every direction, this property offers the chance to create something truly special. The beautiful vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings are a hint at the home's original craftsmanship. An oversized bedroom, (was once two bedrooms as per the assessors office) spacious bonus room, and built-in storage provide a functional layout, while the roomy enclosed laundry area leads directly to a cross-fenced backyard-perfect for your four-legged friends. The potential here is as big. Multiple covered porches invite you to relax on classic porch swings while soaking in sunrise views, mountains and stars at night. The mature native desert flora is ready to thrive again with a little love and care. Additional features include a detached two-car garage, a covered carport, and plenty of space to make your desert dreams a reality. This property isn't just a home-it's a canvas. Come with imagination, stay for the views, and bring this diamond in the rough back to its former glory.
