Set on 5 breathtaking acres in Joshua Tree, this charming (3) bedroom, 1 bath home captures the essence of desert living with sweeping 360° sunrise and sunset views and uninterrupted open space to the north. Elevated on a gentle rise, the property offers a peaceful, private setting where quiet surroundings and star filled skies create a true sense of escape. Built in 1966 and thoughtfully updated, the 1,510 sq ft home features new flooring, (new) dual pane windows, fresh interior and exterior paint, a newer water heater, and a beautifully refreshed kitchen. Inside, the home welcomes you with a warmly (spacious) and inviting living room, filled with natural light, highlighted with new tile flooring and a cozy corner brick-faced wood burning fireplace. The space flows effortlessly into the dining area, where sliding glass doors frame the desert landscape beyond. The kitchen blends charm and functionality with white shaker cabinetry, a wood shiplap backsplash, gas stove, dishwasher, ceiling fan, and a bright, airy feel that makes it a joy to gather and cook. Both bedrooms offer LVT flooring and soft natural light, creating comfortable and restful spaces, while second bedroom features mirrored closet doors. A spacious second living area adds flexibility and is bathed in sunlight, expansive views, and sliding doors that open to the covered patio and yard, inviting seamless indoor-outdoor living. The bathroom is tastefully finished with tile flooring, a single sink vanity, and a walk-in tiled shower, while the indoor laundry room includes tile flooring and crown molding for added detail. The grounds are equally captivating, with mature desert landscaping that includes striking cacti, creosote, and a flowering desert willow, all set against a backdrop of expansive skies. Wildlife such as roadrunners, desert rabbits, and native birds are frequent visitors, enhancing the natural beauty of the setting. Evenings bring incredibly dark skies, perfect for expansive stargazing. Additional features include an efficient central heat pump system for year round comfort, ducted evaporative cooling for energy efficient summer days, a new French drain at the laundry area, and a welcoming new front deck. Two large sheds provide excellent storage, including one with extensive shelving, while irrigated garden beds offer space to grow and cultivate. A unique outdoor hot water setup creates a serene space for soaking under the stars, adding to the home’s retreat like atmosphere.
