It has everything - privacy, large rock formations surrounding the house, superb views in every direction, an owned. grid-tied solar system almost achieving net-zero energy.

It comes fully furnished including all linens, kitchenware, and even terry cloth robes and cleaning supplies. It comes with a fully approved and transferable vacation rental permit. Pristine acreage with numerous mature joshua tree and junipers. Tastefully designed native landscaping is provided water from a large rainwater collection system. There is also a flagstone path leading to a secluded hot tub, and a BBQ grill. The living room has a wood stove and large windows with views of the rock formations on the property and the Joshua Tree National Park mountains. The evaporative cooler and all appliances are all young, and the roof is only about 9 years old. The property also has its own observatory building, 318 square feet, with a sliding roof. It is currently used for storage, and the roof sealed, but it can be restored for your telescope, or used as a studio, or? Beautifully designed, eco-friendly - a perfect Joshua Tree retreat.
