Just down the street from the famous La Copine restaurant, Landers Brew, The Integraton and minutes from shopping and Joshua Tree National Park. Away from the traffic and noise, but close to services. Can be sold with furnishings, ready to continue the excellent income, or for your new getaway.

Super unique 848 square foot Flamingo Heights home surrounded by Joshua trees and views. Situated on a 2.5 acre parcel, the home is divided into two completely separate units. Each side of the home has its own bedroom and bathroom (one is functioning and permitted); possibly ideal for someone who wants a home to live in with a separate unit to rent out. Also has the potential to be TWO completely separate Airbnb units within one home (buyer to check). A small back house could be a cool art studio or music room. The yard provides a buffer from neighbors as it’s situated on the center of the property with a small grove of joshua trees and other mature landscaping directly surrounding the house. Roof is in good shape with a completely new roof on half of the home - but much more work needs to be done, therefore this is being listed as a cash only/as-is property. There is so much potential to make this unusual, spectacular property an incredible retreat.
