About this home

Spectacular mid-century-meets-modern home on 3 parcels spanning 10 lush verdant acres. Dramatic mountain views envelope you from all directions in this beautifully restored property, highlighted to the south by the majestic peak of Mt San Jacinto. Only 20 minutes to Palm Springs or Joshua Tree, this compound is the perfect starting point for exploratory adventures - though you may never want to leave. Owned by artists and designed with full-time livability in mind, this home underwent a complete renovation in 2022, adding a primary bedroom, oversized bathroom, and bonus 300 sq ft sleeping loft with mini-splits throughout the home for year-round climate control. The spacious bedroom features a walk-in closet and built-in office nook with a wall of glass sliders inviting you to take in the striking panoramic views. Down the hall you’ll find a hidden stackable washer & dryer and a spa-like bathroom with venetian plaster, dual sinks, a soaking tub, a shower room, and a separate water closet across the hall so your spa session will never be interrupted. A ladder leads upstairs to a secret sleeping loft with more epic views, making a delightful guest bunk or a quirky clubhouse for the kids. The original block cabin is now an open-concept living area with walls of windows, a wood-burning fireplace, dining area, a renovated kitchen with copper plumbing, new quartz countertops, and a hidden under-counter refrigerator. A 384 sq ft covered patio spans the rear of the home, leading to a spacious open-air lounge area with a gas grill, fire pit, and built-in hammocks to unwind after a day of sight-seeing. Follow the path down to the most instagramable moment of them all - a raised wooden bathhouse with 2 freestanding vintage clawfoot tubs inviting you to enjoy a hot soak framed by another magnificent view, each somehow more impressive than the last. An original 1968 Silver Streak trailer potentially serves as another fabulous guest space or home office. This turnkey property generated over $54k as a short term rental in 2024, not to mention all those unforgettable sunsets and priceless memories. Special properties like this come on the market once in a lifetime, don’t let this one slip away!

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 435600, living area = 960.
Expansive Acreage & Privacy: The property spans 10 lush, verdant acres across 3 parcels, offering exceptional privacy, ample space, and significant potential for future expansion or development.
Recent & Comprehensive Renovation: Underwent a complete renovation in 2022, including modern amenities, updated systems (copper plumbing, mini-splits for climate control), and a fresh, appealing aesthetic, minimizing immediate maintenance concerns.
Stunning Panoramic Views: Offers dramatic panoramic views of mountains, desert, and valley, including the majestic Mt. San Jacinto, visible from multiple vantage points, enhancing the property's allure and value.
Proven Short-Term Rental Income: Demonstrated strong income potential, generating over $54k as a short-term rental in 2024, making it an attractive investment opportunity for buyers seeking passive income.
Unique & Luxurious Amenities: Features distinctive amenities such as a spa-like bathroom, a secret sleeping loft, a large covered patio with a fire pit and hammocks, an outdoor bathhouse with vintage clawfoot tubs, and a vintage Silver Streak trailer for flexible guest/office space.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =435600, other record lot size in square feet = 109937.
Limited Primary Living Space: The main residence is relatively small at 960 sqft, which might be a drawback for buyers seeking a larger primary home or more extensive indoor living areas, especially given the expansive lot size.
Single Dedicated Bedroom: Despite flexible sleeping options like the loft and trailer, the property features only one dedicated bedroom, which may not suit families or buyers requiring multiple private sleeping quarters.
Remote Location & Accessibility: While offering privacy and proximity to natural attractions like Palm Springs and Joshua Tree, the Morongo Valley location is relatively remote, potentially impacting daily commutes and access to extensive urban services.
