Description
Tucked into the heart of Joshua Tree Village, this spacious three-bedroom desert home offers a rare blend of views, privacy, and walkable convenience. Designed for effortless living, the open-concept floor plan is filled with abundant natural light and views of the Joshua Tree National Park Ridgeline, creating an inviting space for gathering, relaxing, and hosting family and friends. Outside, the property is surrounded by lush desert landscaping with mature shade trees on irrigation, offering a true oasis feel and multiple outdoor living areas. Just 4 minutes from the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park, with direct boulder access across the street in the Desert View Conservation Area, adventure, hiking, and iconic desert scenery are literally at your doorstep! Downtown Joshua Tree—known for its farmers markets, artist open-air markets, boutiques, and dining—is conveniently located just down the road, anchoring this home in the creative heart of the High Desert community. Evenings are where this home truly comes alive. Relax in a hammock in the expansive private front yard while overlooking downtown Joshua Tree and the distant desert horizon. Host music nights and poker games in the attached garage, fire up the BBQ and gather around the gas firepit as the sun sets behind the National Park ridgeline, or unwind under a sky full of stars in the jacuzzi, surrounded by the peaceful quiet that draws over three million visitors to Joshua Tree each year. The home features paid-off solar, adding long-term value and energy efficiency, and has history as an active airbnb rental, making it ideal as a primary residence, weekend getaway, or investment property. This is truly 'Joshua Tree living'—close to the National Park, close to town, and grounded in calm nature, creative community, with space to breathe.
