Set on 2.5 acres in Flamingo Heights, this beautifully reimagined desert home opens to wide horizons and a rare sense of quiet, just moments from protected desert land near Black Lava Butte. Originally built in 1957 and thoughtfully transformed, the home blends clean, modern design with warmth and ease. Light moves softly through the interiors, creating a calm, grounded atmosphere that feels both elevated and comfortable. The home is anchored by a main bedroom, with two additional large, flexible rooms used for sleeping, along with a fully redesigned bathroom and a new kitchen featuring updated appliances and simple, refined finishes. Subtle textures, custom carpentry, and carefully selected lighting carry throughout, giving the home a cohesive, design-forward feel. Nearly every major system has been updated, including new septic, plumbing, electrical, insulation, drywall, a five-zone mini split system, tankless water heater, and wood burning stove. The fenced yard creates an intimate outdoor setting, while the full 2.5 acre parcel extends well beyond, offering space, privacy, and room to grow. A separate, detached oversized two-car garage adds flexibility and convenience. Well located near Joshua Tree National Park, Pioneertown, and local favorites like La Copine, with access to hiking and some of the best stargazing in the area. Comfortable as a full-time home, weekend escape, or a thoughtfully designed rental.
