Tucked away in the Hidden Rivers area of Joshua Tree, this 1.14-acre property offers wide mountain views, a large open backyard and plenty of space, all just minutes from downtown and the national park entrance. The home was cared for by the same owners for many years and is now ready for updating and a new owner to make it their own. Inside, the 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home has a comfortable layout with a large living room, dining area, roomy kitchen, central heating and air and plenty of natural light. A screened in front porch and large covered back patio provide two great places to enjoy the desert weather and views. The backyard feels private and open, with room for outdoor living, a spa, pool, desert landscaping, or a possible ADU. The side and rear yard are fully fenced with double gated access. A circular driveway, covered RV parking, detached garage with adjoining workshop and storage sheds add even more functionality. The all electric home also includes leased solar, an updated electrical panel and an included backup generator with a dedicated connection to the home. With its acreage, views, location and room to make it your own, this property could become a full time home, weekend escape, or short term rental.
