Agent Remarks: Welcome to Shangri-La: Adrift in the remote wilderness of North Joshua Tree. Surrounded by endless wilderness, this sprawling 5-Acre parcel abuts a government-owned parcel to the north, never to be developed, providing a permanent privacy buffer. Eclectic, sparse, rural neighborhood, populated by international residents, musicians, craftsmen and nature lovers – a slice of old Joshua Tree and the reason this little piece of earth has become known throughout the world, while maintaining its rural character. Newly constructed and reimagined home from Midcentury Modern roots. The original 1956 home has been rebuilt from foundation to roof, while retaining many of its original elements, including the west facing picture window looking out over the sprawling government-owned preserved wilderness to the west and the mountains beyond. High-quality finishes throughout, including handmade, imported entrance doors, minimalist quartz counter kitchen, floor-to-ceiling large-format tiles in the walk-in shower and freestanding bathtub with views of the open desert, and beautifully outfitted bedrooms for the ultimate luxury getaway experience. Exterior includes a spa built into the deck, a cowboy pool, a firepit, and even a detached vintage shed that was part of the original homestead. Nowhere will you find the old school Joshua Tree experience better exemplified than in this jewel box located on one of the best roads in North Joshua Tree. For many, Shangri-La remains a mythical harmonious valley set in Tibet's Kunlun Mountains as depicted in the novel Lost Horizons. For others, the same unique environs are located on a remote dusty road in the far reaches of the Mojave Desert with a same name. For those individuals seeking the serenity of spiritual life, this location and this home will live forever in their minds and souls…
