This nostalgic fifties homesteader, zoned single family residence, is ready for you to finish renovation. Set on 5 acres in the vibrant Wonder Valley neighborhood of 29 Palms. Enjoy stunning desert views of the adjacent Pinto Mountains, with a prime location only four minutes from Utah Trail/Park Boulevard to the East entrance of Joshua Tree National Park, and the revitalized downtown. Power is at the street. While the main house isn’t yet rehabbed, it has incredible potential with some TLC. The charming, airy 700-sq foot garage has a new roof, and has been upgraded to feature a bathroom with new flush toilet and sink, and a tank water system for hauled water. A bar/dining area has its own cold-water sink. A small solar array charges a 12-volt battery system for a water pump and lights, and features a USB port and 2 standard wall outlets for charging devices. Atmospheric lighting makes it a great place to stay while revitalizing the home, or having your own private desert cantina-vibed clubhouse. The garage’s large sunny windows and sizeable barn door could make it an ideal artist’s studio. The cabin was once owned by the original “Cactus Jack” Jack Cones, the Flying Constable of 29 Palms. The property is 2 blocks from The Glass Outhouse art gallery and 10 mins from the Palms Restaurant. A fantastic opportunity to create your dream desert retreat! Address is for marketing purposes only, heading east on 29 Palms Highway, turn left on Cactus Jack Ave, second house on right.
