Description
Dramatic mountain views envelop you from all directions in this artist-designed mid-century retreat spanning 5 serene acres under the majestic backdrop of Mt San Jacinto. The original 1959 brick cabin serves as an open concept living & dining area with soaring exposed beam ceilings, a cozy wood burning fireplace, built-ins, and a modern kitchen complete with quartz countertops, new copper plumbing, and a clever hidden under-counter fridge. A thoughtfully curated 2022 renovation introduces a chic new primary bedroom, oversized bathroom, bonus sleeping loft, and mini splits for climate control. The generously sized bedroom features a walk-in closet and built-in office nook, punctuated by a wall of glass sliders inviting you to take in the striking outdoor panorama. Down the hall you’ll find a hidden stackable washer & dryer and a spa-like bathroom with venetian plaster, dual sinks, a soaking tub, a shower room, and a separate water closet. A ladder opens to a secret upstairs 300 sq ft sleeping loft with more impressive views, making a delightful guest bunk or a quirky clubhouse for the kids. A 384 sq ft covered outdoor patio spans the rear of the home, leading to an open-air lounge and dining area with a gas grill, propane fire pit, and built-in hammocks to unwind under the stars. Follow the professionally landscaped path down to the most instagrammable moment of them all - a bespoke wooden bathhouse where 2 vintage clawfoot tubs beckon you to enjoy a hot soak framed by yet another incredible view. Ideally situated less than 2 hours to LA, 15 minutes to Palm Springs, 20 minutes to Joshua Tree National Park, and surrounded by 154,000 acres of publicly accessible canyons, preserves, white waters, trails, and mountain peaks of the Sand to Snow National Monument, this property is the perfect home-base for everything from romantic getaways to family adventures. Sold turnkey so you can grab your suitcase and move right in, or take over the “guest favorite” airbnb account to start generating short term rental income right away. An original 1968 Silver Streak trailer and adjacent buildable 5 acre parcel are available to purchase separately to create your own 10-acre multi-parcel dream compound.
