Welcome to Morongo Valley, the Hi Desert's best-kept secret! Perfectly nestled 2 miles inside the spectacular Big Morongo Canyon and up a long private solar-lit driveway on 5 acres sits a charming Western-style mid-century desert retreat perched on its own hill. Sellers have thoughtfully given this home a complete cosmetic overhaul, redesigning the property from top to bottom, including electrical and plumbing, interior and exterior walls, and landscaping, to name a few--look at the remodel list! An abundance of windows and sliding glass doors invite natural light to pour in and provide panoramic mountain vistas throughout the home. The open floor plan allows you to effortlessly pass from the main living area into the bonus sunroom, bedroom, bathroom, and library/office! An inviting 600 sq. ft. solar string-lit covered veranda allows for stunning mountain and canyon views by day and the sparkling lights of Morongo Valley by night. As a bonus, an incredible 1500 sq. ft. warehouse provides plenty of room for your art or craft as a working studio, storage, or both. This Workshop/Warehouse structure can also accommodate an RV and/or several cars. There is outdoor parking for up to 3 cars, a slab for two cars outside, and a designated golf cart parking area. Solar-lit trails will guide you to the gazebo and fire pit, overlooking a flowing stream, allowing for a pristine connection to nature and serenity and a breathtaking view of Big Morongo Canyon. Enjoy the eclectic shopping, artsy neighbors, and dining destinations of Morongo Valley, Yucca Valley, and Joshua Tree with this ideal spot conveniently located between two iconic desert destinations--Palm Springs and Joshua Tree National Park. All this is approximately two hours from Los Angeles. Another bonus is that the neighbors live close enough to observe any trespassers should this property be a part-time residence.
