About this home

This Hidden Canyon Retreat is truly one-of-a-kind and offers the best in privacy and seclusion! The security gated entrance opens on a private, meandering road to this 2-bedroom, 1 bath house nestled in its own private canyon with beautiful views of rock formations and natural vegetation. The property is surrounded entirely by Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land, so the 5-acre parcel feels a hundred acres. A private mountain with hiking trail stops at a bench at the top overlooking the entire valley. The house with quaint kitchen and spacious living area was recently partially redone re-configuring the original single bedroom and adding a second bedroom with large windows and a laundry room. Mini splits have been added to both bedrooms and the living room for AC and heat along with the original wood stove in the living room. Don't miss the insulated, easy access attic that could be used as an additional sleeping area, playroom or studio. A newer detached double garage with carport is set with plumbing and electrical. Everyone will love the expansive playground with swings, slide, monkey bars and climbing structure too! This get-a-way is located just minutes from the Johnson Valley OHV recreation area, and the annual King of the Hammers. All day dirt bike and quad riding from your front yard adds to the fun. Located 30 mins from Yucca Valley and beyond to Joshua Tree, Palm Springs, and other desert locations. Seller may carry! Call for more information.

Good

This property is move-in ready with several recent updates. While built in 1980, the description notes it was 'recently partially redone' with a re-configured layout, new mini-split AC/heating units in bedrooms and living room, and updated wood-look tile flooring throughout the main living areas and bedrooms. The kitchen, though described as 'quaint,' appears clean and functional with solid wood cabinets and a newer range, although the refrigerator is older. The detached garage is also noted as 'newer' with plumbing and electrical. The overall condition suggests a well-maintained home with functional systems and recent comfort upgrades, fitting the 'good' criteria of being move-in ready with some updated components, even if not a full, high-end renovation.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Unparalleled Privacy & Expansive Land: The property boasts exceptional privacy and seclusion, featuring a security-gated entrance, a private canyon setting, and is entirely surrounded by Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land, making the 5-acre parcel feel significantly larger.
Stunning Panoramic Views & Private Hiking: Offers breathtaking views of rock formations, natural vegetation, and the entire valley from a private mountain with its own dedicated hiking trail.
Recent Renovations & Modern HVAC: The house has been recently partially re-configured, adding a second bedroom and a laundry room, and features modern mini-split AC/heating units in both bedrooms and the living room for year-round comfort.
Robust Outdoor Infrastructure & Amenities: Includes a newer detached double garage with pre-installed plumbing and electrical, along with an expansive playground, enhancing both utility and recreational value.
Recreational Haven & Flexible Financing: Ideal for off-road enthusiasts, with direct access to the Johnson Valley OHV recreation area and the King of the Hammers, complemented by the potential for seller financing.

Cons

Geographic Isolation: The property's remote location, 30 minutes from Yucca Valley, may present challenges for convenient access to essential services, shopping, and broader amenities.
Compact Living Quarters: With 947 sqft, 2 bedrooms, and 1 bathroom, the main residence offers limited interior space, which might not be suitable for larger families or those desiring more expansive living areas.
Specialized Market Appeal: Its strong emphasis on extreme seclusion and off-road recreation caters to a niche buyer demographic, potentially limiting the pool of interested purchasers.
