South side acreage & view property near Joshua Tree National Park! Affectionately known as "Twin Tanks" for its landmark elevated pair of water cisterns (just for looks, this property offers municipal water--already hooked up!) as well as two similarly-styled homestead cabins. The cabins are set up with the east one for sleeping and eating, the west cabin offers a bathroom with a shower. Enjoy indoor / outdoor living on this charming back patio area with fire pit--perfect setup for stargazing at night or sipping coffee at daybreak while listening to the coyotes call. After breakfast, put on your hiking shoes as this generous 5-acre parcel is a quick hop to the hiking trails of Indian Cove and the Joshua Tree National Park! Currently used as a licensed short-term rental this terrific homestead cabin property is a piece of the area's storied history. Comes furnished and ready for fun--includes a vintage travel trailer (good for storage, not currently habitable) and an old truck. Come see today!
