Built in 2007, this duplex with mirror layout units with 2 beds 2 baths each is conveniently located near everything you need in the beautiful town of Joshua Tree. With an oversized 1/3 acre lot, this is perfect for an investor, or for a family who wants to live in one unit and rent the other one for extra income. Unit A, not pictured, was completely redone in early 2017 with new carpet and tile flooring, new stove range, a huge fridge and stackable washer/dryer and comes with a smart Nest thermostat -controllable by any smart phone. Unit B, pictured, had a complete remodel in mid 2017 including a new kitchen: wood countertops, painted cabinets, gorgeous farmhouse sink with pull-down spray nozzle, brand new bottom-freezer fridge. A modern eat-in kitchen table was installed to maximize the space. New wood style laminate flooring throughout the entire unit, and both bathrooms in this unit are remodeled with unique vanities and new lighting fixtures. Also has a stacked washer/dryer. There is a climbing wall along the living area and between the bedroom entries, built by a rock-climber/artist. This unit also features a smart Nest thermostat, in addition to a Smart Yale lock for easy & safe entry. The oversized 7000 sq ft backyard has been completely fenced in with bug-resistant cedar and weather sealed in 2017 - and Unit B's entry is in the fenced-in area making it extremely private and serene. The entire roof was replaced in 2019 & is still under 5 year warranty. The driveway is spacious enough to fit 8 cars. The storage shed in the backyard conveys with the property. Note: The mature Palo Verde pictured in the backyard has been replaced with a younger tree, after the former fell down in a storm early this year.

10 minute drive to the Joshua Tree park entrance, 10 minute drive to major groceries, and 5 minute walks to the Joshua Tree Farmers Market & multiple restaurants in downtown Joshua tree!
