About this home

7880 Wesley Road, located in the Friendly Hills neighborhood of Joshua Tree, is a thoughtfully designed desert retreat set on 2.7 acres with sweeping 180-degree views of the Morongo Basin and beyond, and features an 1,800-SQUARE-FOOT CLIMATE-CONTROLLED STEEL SHOP THAT IS AN ARTIST OR MUSICIAN’S DELIGHT, COMPLETE WITH A BATHROOM AND A COZY LOUNGE AREA. This remarkable property blends peaceful desert living with artistic inspiration and practical amenities—all supported in part by an owned 11kW solar system and just minutes from downtown Joshua Tree and the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park. Approximately two acres of the property are fully fenced, offering privacy and ample space for pets or gardening. The main house offers approximately 2,300 square feet of living space and features four bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite created by combining two bedrooms, a large office converted from a fourth bedroom, and a guest bedroom with an ensuite bathroom featuring an oversized shower. A climate-controlled greenhouse adjoins the steel shop for added versatility. In total, the home includes three bathrooms: a full bath with a soaking tub adjoining the primary bedroom, a second ensuite bathroom, and a third with a pedestal sink near the office. Inside, you’ll find porcelain tile flooring throughout, extra-wide hallways, and large closets in both the bedrooms and hallways for generous storage. The living room offers a wood-burning fireplace and a custom-built wall unit with a large TV and integrated network cabling. The open kitchen features granite counters, recessed lighting, and a large pantry, while the separate laundry room provides additional storage and includes a washer and dryer. Outdoor living is exceptional, centered around a full outdoor kitchen with granite counters, built-in BBQ, smoker, sink, and wood-burning pizza oven adjoining a partially enclosed outdoor dining area. Additional amenities include a cedar-planked sauna with a dressing room, an outdoor shower, and a spa. A fully refurbished 30-foot Silver Streak trailer serves as a charming guest house with its own covered redwood deck overlooking the canyon.
