STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN: BOULDERS, BOULDERS, BOULDERS. Massive 10-Acre parcel that borders and is adjacent to Joshua Tree National Park. Hike from your own property straight into the Park – or better, camp in your own boulder retreat. Parcel is also adjacent to the Kellogg/Doolittle house – the most significant architectural home locally, which is built into the boulders and provides an example of future possibilities with this parcel. Property includes 3 separate living structures: a 2-bed/1-bath conventional home with a dining/living area that opens up to a boulder surrounded courtyard. A large 1-bed/1-bath geodesic dome with a loft bedroom and spacious living area, in addition to a second-floor deck to relax and enjoy nature. Finally, a modest 1-bed/1-bath cabin. Property is serviced by conventional electric and water (SCE & Joshua Basic Water District water meter) and septic tanks. For additional storage/workshop stands a Quonset hut, made from durable steel. A carport is built into the rocks. Paid solar. Wildlife flourishes on the property, including big horn sheep (all animal pictures were taken on the property). Few properties touch the National Park and even less are this large in size and this many rock outcroppings. One could lead private yoga retreats in your own private hidden valley, or meditate solo. Countless possibilities for a property as significant, profound and sublime as this extremely rare holding.

The property, built in 1969, is over 50 years old, and the interior images reveal significantly outdated kitchens and bathrooms across all three structures. The conventional home's kitchen features older white appliances, dated wood cabinets, laminate countertops, and fluorescent lighting, requiring a full renovation. Bathrooms also show older vanities, basic fixtures, and dated lighting. While functional, these critical areas, along with the dated tile and carpet flooring and older light fixtures, indicate a need for substantial repairs and rehabilitation to meet modern standards of comfort and aesthetics. The MLS description itself notes the 'Age of Primary Structures' as a weakness, suggesting 'significant updates to systems, finishes, and energy efficiency' are required.
Pros & Cons

Pros

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 = 2200.
Unparalleled National Park Proximity: Direct adjacency and access to Joshua Tree National Park, a rare and highly coveted feature for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers, offering immediate hiking and exploration opportunities.
Expansive & Unique Natural Terrain: A massive 10-acre parcel characterized by significant boulder formations, diverse wildlife (including bighorn sheep), and panoramic desert/mountain views, offering a truly distinctive and private landscape.
Versatile Multi-Structure Living: Includes three distinct living units (a conventional home, a geodesic dome, and a cabin), providing flexibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, or potential rental income streams.
Sustainable & Essential Infrastructure: Equipped with paid solar, conventional electricity, water district service, and septic systems, ensuring modern conveniences and reduced utility costs in a natural setting.
Significant Architectural Potential: The unique boulder landscape and proximity to a landmark architectural home (Kellogg/Doolittle) suggest immense potential for bespoke, integrated design and development, offering a canvas for visionary projects.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 2200, other record living area = 1126. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 2.
Age of Primary Structures: The main conventional home, built in 1969, may require significant updates to systems, finishes, and energy efficiency to meet contemporary standards and buyer expectations.
Potential for Extensive Development Costs: While offering architectural potential, developing or extensively renovating on a boulder-strewn 10-acre parcel could incur substantial costs for site preparation, specialized construction, and design challenges.
Niche Market Appeal: The property's highly unique characteristics, including its remote location and rustic multi-structure setup, may appeal to a specific buyer demographic, potentially leading to a longer marketing period compared to conventional homes.
