This authentic pink-block (intact!) homestead shell cabin is ready to become your vacation getaway. The shell is solid and partially finished inside. Buyer to verify availability of water and power. The 2.5-acre site is naturally landscaped and surrounded by more than 20 acres of BLM land. The panoramic views of the Joshua Tree National Park mountains and big skies will make you understand how and why the JT craze all started decades ago. Properties like this are extremely rare.
