Hike to Joshua Tree National Park from your driveway! This spectacular view property on 5 acres is situated amid desert wilderness in the desirable Covington Flats area at the top of La Contenta. And this sprawling compound boasts two superb homes. The warm and inviting 3 bedroom, 2 bath main house features stunning vaulted, tongue-in-groove beamed ceilings in the great room, alluring polished concrete floors, a capacious kitchen with handsome butcher-block countertops with a waterfall edge, and luscious bathrooms with marble vessel sinks atop butcher-block counters and stylishly tiled showers. Central HVAC as well as evaporative cooling offer maximum comfort. This showplace is an entertainer’s dream, with room to live one’s best life indoors and outdoors. Relax under the expansive covered porch, mindfully tread the stone labyrinth, soak in the hot-tub spa, nap in the hammocks, and party with friends in the large, covered dining area. The 2-car garage offers yet more space. And this beauty is exceptionally energy efficient with a paid 15.8 KW solar power system that keeps power bills low. But wait, there’s more! The bedazzlement continues into the spacious 1-bedroom 1-bath guest house, which features a sleek contemporary kitchen, warm wood accent walls, gorgeous wooden ceilings with recessed lighting, polished concrete flooring, an attractive bathroom with a delightful claw-foot tub, compact laundry, mini-split zoned HVAC, a private yard with a spa, private entrance and driveway, a galvanized steel roof and covered porch. Among the many other desirable features are mature landscaping and a fenced yard with rolling gates. Both dwellings have keyless entry, and this property is currently licensed for short-term rental with the town of Yucca Valley. This to-die-for retreat is the ideal place to live it up or wind it down. It offers everything one could want in a desert home. Come see today!
