Agent Description

Perched on a quiet hilltop in Joshua Tree Village, this charming 1 bedroom, 1 bath desert retreat is offered fully furnished and delivers the perfect blend of privacy, views, and income potential. Set on a spacious lot with an additional adjoining 0.4 acre parcel included in the sale, this property has everything you need and gives you rare flexibility and room to grow.

Located just minutes from the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park and close to the shops, restaurants, and local spots downtown, the location works equally well for personal use or as an income property. Used as a primary home for 3 years and currently operating as a successful short term rental, this cottage is uniquely versatile and low maintenance.

It has already proven strong performance with approximately $20,000 in gross Airbnb revenue since launching in late 2025, with steady momentum continuing into 2026. Inside, the home features a warm, open living space with exposed wood beam ceilings, updated finishes, French doors opening to a large patio area, and great natural light.

Step outside and take in unobstructed views of the Bartlett Mountains, with protected open land across the street adding to the sense of space and privacy. This is your opportunity to own an original Joshua Tree homestead with room to expand, add another structure buyer to verify, or create an even more compelling outdoor experience. Whether you are looking for a cozy home with views, a vacation rental, a second home, or something with future upside, this one checks the boxes.
