Description

Set among massive boulders, native wildflowers, and old-growth Joshua Trees, this 5-acre property in Gamma Gulch feels like something you stumble upon once and never forget. Quiet, cinematic, and deeply peaceful, it’s the kind of place where the desert shows off—sunrises, long shadows, and sweeping views that stretch all the way to Joshua Tree National Park, and the snow-capped peaks of Mount San Jacinto. The main home is a thoughtfully updated 1-bedroom, 1-bath with just over 1,000 square feet,...Set among massive boulders, native wildflowers, and old-growth Joshua Trees, this 5-acre property in Gamma Gulch feels like something you stumble upon once and never forget. Quiet, cinematic, and deeply peaceful, it’s the kind of place where the desert shows off—sunrises, long shadows, and sweeping views that stretch all the way to Joshua Tree National Park, and the snow-capped peaks of Mount San Jacinto.

The kitchen is a dream for anyone who loves to cook, featuring a Viking range and walk-in pantry. A wood-burning stove anchors the living room, creating a cozy place to unwind on cool desert evenings. The bathroom has been recently refreshed with modern fixtures, and the home has been newly painted throughout. Outside, the property continues to impress.

Just off the main house is a studio currently used as a second bedroom, along with a finished two-car garage that offers excellent storage or creative space.

With an open-concept layout, full bathroom, and kitchenette, Ideal for guests, or a dedicated work-from-home retreat. The exterior has just been repainted, and the home feels fresh and serene. The main houses a private well, while the second home has its own 2,400-gallon water tank with a new digital pump. Both homes have been successful short-term rentals in the past (buyer to verify current permitting and usage), offering flexibility for personal use, income, or a combination of both. Furnishings may be negotiated with some exceptions.

Adjacent 4.6-acre parcel is also available for separate purchase, offering even more room to expand or preserve the surrounding landscape. Private, expansive, and surrounded by unforgettable scenery, this Gamma Gulch retreat is a rare opportunity to own a true piece of the high desert—one that feels worlds away, yet perfectly connected.
