Description

Desert Studio. The June 1960 issue of Timico Acres News describes this property as "...one of the finest view parcels in the area" and it is still true today. Cabin with two parcels totaling 9.5 acres, at the very edge of BLM land; a wilderness extending all the way to the San Bernardino Mountains, Bighorn Mountain Wilderness and Sand to Snow National Monument. Just over 600 sq ft of living space, a custom built home with 9' ceilings and covered porches, simply a true desert cabin. Private water...Desert Studio. The June 1960 issue of Timico Acres News describes this property as "...one of the finest view parcels in the area" and it is still true today. Cabin with two parcels totaling 9.5 acres, at the very edge of BLM land; a wilderness extending all the way to the San Bernardino Mountains, Bighorn Mountain Wilderness and Sand to Snow National Monument. Just over 600 sq ft of living space, a custom built home with 9' ceilings and covered porches, simply a true desert cabin. Private water tank and pump installed underground, a fully permitted kitchen and bathroom with septic system. A one of a kind setting at the end of the road, end of the power line, the last and highest private parcel on Cholla Road. The views from here cannot be overstated and the privacy and access to the wilderness is simply perfect. Owned and built by the original family, never before on the market, a truly once in a lifetime opportunity to enjoy the solitude and privacy afforded by this amazing location. Located between Joshua Tree National Park and Big Bear Lake, CA. The experience of driving to the property is transformational: Pull into the circular driveway in front of this little house, turn off the car and suddenly, there is total peace. The absolute solitude of being deep in nature. The view is crystal clear. Look around, you can see for miles. This journey to the end of the road, arriving at this little house, is always a transformation. Go inside, open the doors and windows and let the sun shine in. There are letters to write, pictures to capture and share, and time for the creative juices to flow. Gentle conversation. Good coffee. Warm fires. Listen to the sound of your heart beat. Maybe grab a few supplies and venture into the outback, the Bighorn Mountain Wilderness is right outside your door. This little house always provides the embrace of nature, the peace of solitude with an ever present expanse of space. Evenings here bring a million stars, the milky way, and a glowing panorama of mountain silhouettes. Come morning the sun will cast its rays across the entire valley before you. Shadows and light. Illuminating color. Every day is here for you. Come to the last little house on the road and make this one of a kind outpost yours forever.
