Set on 1.65 acres with unobstructed views toward Joshua Tree National Park, this thoughtfully updated ranch home offers privacy, comfort, and an easy connection to the surrounding desert. Clean, tasteful updates complement the home's original character, including a handmade vintage rock fireplace that anchors the main living space. The spacious kitchen features rich hardwood cabinetry, generous storage, and room to cook, gather, and entertain. The layout includes three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, a separate office, an oversized bonus room currently used as a private screening room, and an attached finished studio that could also serve as a workshop or high-finish garage. An owned solar system adds long-term value, and every day efficiency. Outside, mature desert landscaping, sculptural cactus, and established trees create a beautifully grounded setting. The pool and spa sit beneath open skies, while the open land beyond and trail access just past the back gate give the property a rare sense of space and privacy. Set in a great location with easy access to town, the national park, and the best of the area, this is a home that works beautifully as a full-time residence, second home, or standout short-term rental.
