Diamond in the rough in the heart of Joshua Tree! This original homesteader cabin is waiting for an HGTV transformation. There are two good-sized bedrooms, two full bath rooms, a nice size living room and open concept kitchen. Situated on 5 acres, this gem has so much room for activities. Good bones makes this clean slate worth putting some sweat equity into. Additions were completed by previous owner and may not be permitted. Buyer and buyer's agent to verify.
