Description
Exceptional opportunity to acquire a legally converted Single Family Residence, formerly a cabin, situated on 5 acres (217,800 sq. ft.) in the highly sought after Desert Heights area, complete with public water. The owner has already completed the legal conversion process, saving the next owner the time, expense, and effort involved in transforming a cabin into a permitted single family residence. Public water with a working meter on a 5-acre parcel is a rare and highly valuable feature in this location. No need to haul water, maintain storage tanks, or worry about well failure or contamination. SHORT-TERM RENTAL POTENTIAL: With the property now legally designated as a Single Family Residence, it may qualify for use as an Airbnb or other short-term vacation rental, subject to San Bernardino County's eligibility requirements, permitting, and approval. This presents an opportunity for buyers interested in vacation rental income, particularly given the property's proximity to Joshua Tree National Park. Buyer to independently verify short-term rental eligibility, applicable regulations, and permit requirements with San Bernardino County. Enjoy privacy and open desert surroundings while remaining just minutes from shops, restaurants, and the vibrant Joshua Tree community. Approximately 17 minutes (14.3 miles) to the West Entrance of Joshua Tree National Park and 22 minutes (15.6 miles) to the North Entrance. The park attracts over 3 million visitors annually. The fully remodeled home is approximately 200 sq. ft. and will be delivered with a Certificate of Occupancy. Features include a kitchen, bathroom, tile flooring throughout, and a permitted new septic system. The property operates on solar power and includes a small tri-fuel backup generator. An electrical post is located at the corner of Los Olivos Ave. and Foley Dr. Buyer to investigate the feasibility and cost of connecting to public electricity. A small detached shed is located on the property. There may be potential to split the lot into two 2.5-acre parcels, and each parcel may allow up to three structures (buyer to verify). Seller and agent make no representations regarding subdivision or development potential. Buyer to verify all zoning, land use, and development standards with the San Bernardino County Planning Department.
