Description
Perched high on five private scenic acres above Morongo Valley, this charming desert retreat offers sweeping views across the valley floor and toward the San Jacinto and surrounding mountain ranges. The elevated setting provides a sense of space and quiet while still being conveniently located just off Highway 62. Built in 1954, the one-bedroom, one-bath home blends classic desert character with thoughtful updates. Inside, exposed beam ceilings, polished concrete floors, and large picture windows frame the surrounding landscape. The living area centers around an oversized wood-stove, while the kitchen features clean finishes and open shelving that complement the relaxed desert aesthetic. Outdoor spaces take full advantage of the expansive property. A hot tub and fire pit seating area overlook the valley and provide a perfect spot to enjoy sunsets and star-filled desert nights. The 5 acre parcel includes natural desert terrain, hillside backdrop, and open areas for recreation, exploration, or future vision. A detached recreation space offers additional flexibility for guests, hobbies, or creative use. The property also includes a private water well, water tank, and the privacy that comes with acreage in one of the Morongo Basin’s most scenic areas. Morongo Valley offers a peaceful desert setting while remaining close to some of the region’s most popular destinations. The trails and wildlife of Big Morongo Canyon Preserve are just minutes away, and Joshua Tree National Park, the restaurants and shops of Yucca Valley, and the art and music scene of Joshua Tree Village are all within easy reach. With panoramic views, open land, and classic high-desert character, this property offers a rare opportunity to experience the landscape and quiet beauty of the Morongo Basin. Successfull AirBnB with high income.
