    Private 5 acres with 360 views as far as the eye can see (see MLS documents for acreage source), 3-bedroom, and 2-bath main house (1,736 sq. ft.), plus a fully permitted, 1-bedroom and 1-bath ADU (1,263 sq. ft.). In addition, 2 camp sites ready for the ultimate glamping experience, both fully equipped for trailer hook ups each including their own electric, permitted septic systems with EHS approval and cleanout and newly installed corrugated steel privacy walls. 5-star, 9.5 score on Hotel.social, licensed (both units), short-term rental, with documented history of generating $140,000+ in annual gross income. Seller willing to assist with transfer of existing scheduled bookings (if Buyer plans to continue offering the property as a short-term rental). The 5 gross acres is the combination of two 2.5 acre lots zoned JT-RL which make it possible to add 1 more dwelling on the parcel with the single-family home and ADU and another 3 dwellings on the other vacant parcel! Seller has completed plot plans and proposal for Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to legally short-term rent 6 alternate dwellings by operating as a “campground”. The Buyer should be able to take advantage of the Seller’s CUP submission, saving time and money.

    Last of the Bohemia: Old School Joshua Tree in all its splendor – sprawling living room in which to relax, long hallway leading to the bedrooms, all spread over 1,736 square feet! Panoramic views of the National Park from the front porch. Sprawling back porch, shielded from the sun for morning coffee. Close to town yet remote. Two separate legal parcels, composing almost 4 acres – live on one parcel, build on the other. Massive second structure beside house, ostensibly a garage but better as a music or art studio, metal shop or transform into guest house. NEW ROOF with 30-year high-wind shingles. NO IMMEDIATE NEIGHBORS. Enjoy the serenity of silence or party down desert style. Exterior recently painted. Fenced yard for pets. Great area of town to roam on long walks through the open desert surrounding the house. One of those rare finds that feels like home upon entering. Escape from LA and hole up in your new paradise or rent it on Airbnb to pay your mortgage. For buyers wanting a reasonably priced home without neighbors and large acreage, look no further – this is it – there is no other.
