This 1952 classic mid-century modern desert bungalow was reportedly built by renowned Twentynine Palms block-layer and builder Walter Berg. The home has been fully remodeled and modernized including the addition of two secluded master suites, along with more than 1,000 square feet of functional and esthetically designed covered and open patios that provide for an amazing indoor / outdoor living lifestyle. Finding a mid-century modern bungalow of this caliber is rare in the High Desert. There are unique lounging and dining spaces that allow for comfortably and easily entertaining more than twenty guests. There is very convenient access to the nearby Joshua Tree National Park for hiking, climbing, exploration and adventure. In fact, the property sits on six spacious and secluded acres that are less than 100 yards from the National Park boundary. The 49 Palms hiking trail and Indian Cove camping and climbing areas are nearby. The property has been featured on the Morongo Basin Conservation Association Desert Wise Landscaping Tour for several years. The discrete rooftop solar system makes this a net zero home.
