CLASSIC OLD SCHOOL JOSHUA TREE ABODE: Deep 1-Acre Lot with panoramic views of the mountains in the National Park from the backyard. Coveted Upper Friendly Hills neighborhood location. Rare HUGE covered shade porch on two-sides of house totaling nearly 700 square feet for true indoor/outdoor living. Mature landscaping, including shade trees & vast drought resistant cacti garden. Grape vines on front porch. Saltillo tiles in the kitchen and living area for ease of cleaning. Entire yard is fully-fenced, perfect for children or pets (dog door – w/ metal security panel already installed).

This freestanding structure is perfect for a studio (music, art, metal sculpture), a mechanic’s shop or even beer-brewing, as the seller occasionally used the building for, not to mention vast extra storage. More important, once could eventually convert it to a permitted guesthouse/ADU and create an additional living structure for a fraction of the cost of starting from ground up. However, main house is spacious and has many features, like a FULLY PERMITTED conversion of the former attached garage into living space that can act as a 3rd bedroom, den or office. Home includes a woodstove for heat and ambiance (split wood already in the backyard), good condition roof with high-wind shingles, a 200-amp panel, central air, newer Performance Rheem (2023) electric hot water heater and comes complete with washer, dryer, fridge, stove, dishwasher & microwave ready to go.
