Mature pine trees, thoughtfully designed desert gardens, walking paths, covered porches, and a shaded pergola create an inviting outdoor retreat. Three separate buildings provide a rare combination of privacy, flexibility, and versatility. The bright 1,528-square-foot main home and detached permitted guest cottage (ADU) are thoughtfully furnished and consistently praised by guests as cozy, peaceful retreats. Cash Only with proof of funds. The guest cottage features a private entrance, full bath, kitchenette, and covered porch, while each building enjoys its own outdoor living space with panoramic views. Ideal as a primary residence, multigenerational home, vacation getaway, artist's retreat, home with private guest accommodations, or a successful, established short-term rental. Over the past five years, the main home and guest cottage have averaged more than $48,000 in annual gross short-term rental income, with each contributing approximately half the total. Historical rental income reflects the owners' personal use of the property and may not represent its full rental potential. The guest cottage offers future expansion potential through an adjoining annex, while a detached permitted storage building provides additional possibilities for a workshop, studio, or hobby space, subject to applicable permitting requirements. Main house is 1528 sq ft. Guest house 628 sq ft
