MOUNTAINS FOR MILES IN MORONGO VALLEY! Spread out beneath a vast desert sky on five beautiful acres, this spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath home pairs glorious mountain views with warm desert character, generous gathering spaces and plenty of room for friends, projects and possibilities. The views are tremendous. Mountains rise in nearly every direction, with dramatic southern vistas stretching to San Jacinto Peak. Windows throughout keep the landscape close, bringing in desert light, rugged ridgelines and long horizons that change color throughout the day. At 1,796 square feet, the living space is unusually expansive, with a floor plan made for entertaining and everyday life. Warm Saltillo tile runs through much of the home, complemented by smooth concrete floors in two bedrooms, crisp white walls, exposed beams and charming mid-century details. Angled rooflines and unexpected architectural moments give the house a personality all its own. The inviting family room features a beamed ceiling, mountain-view windows and fabulous sculptural Malm-style fireplace. Adjoining living and dining spaces provide plenty of room to spread out and entertain. The sunny kitchen has character to spare, with abundant cabinetry and open shelving, striking concrete counters and stainless appliances, including a five-burner range and Bosch dishwasher. French doors make it easy for gatherings to spill outside. Three spacious bedrooms provide peaceful retreats, while two full baths include an updated double-vanity bath with concrete, wood and exposed copper details. Zoned mini-split HVAC provides room-by-room comfort. Front-loading washer and dryer included. A concrete, pergola-shaded view deck is made for morning coffee and long dinners as the mountain shadows shift. And what a bonus: a detached, insulated 1,200-square-foot metal warehouse with I-beam construction, fire-sprinkler system and its own large mini-split HVAC. There’s space for multiple vehicles, a serious workshop, art or music studio, creative headquarters or substantial projects. A 38-foot insulated trailer and separate shed provide even more storage. Five acres, big spaces, unforgettable views and plenty of room to make this desert life entirely your own. Come see for yourself.
