    What's special

    Quiet open-sky feelDual-pane windows
    5-acre Johnson Valley property with an existing structure, located directly next door to another 5-acre property with a newer home that is also available for purchase. The seller also owns the adjoining property, creating a possible opportunity to own two side-by-side parcels in the wide-open Johnson Valley area. The entire 5-acre parcel is fenced, adding useful definition and separation to the property. The property offers incredible desert views in every direction, with open land, distant mountains, surrounding mesas, and the quiet, open-sky feel that makes Johnson Valley so special. It is also located near the area known for the annual King of the Hammers off-road event, while being on the opposite side of the highway from the main event activity, offering proximity to the off-road community without being directly in the main traffic flow. The structure has had several important exterior improvements completed approximately 4 years ago, including replacement of the roof sheathing, fascia boards, and composition shingles. Dual-pane windows were installed, and a stucco skim coat was applied over most of the exterior. The interior is currently open to the studs, offering a blank canvas for a buyer with vision. Plumbing and electrical have been removed, and the property does not currently have connected utilities, including water, electricity, propane, or septic. Electrical service was previously connected to the property, but there is no active electrical service at this time. Buyer to verify any availability, requirements, costs, and approvals needed for future utility service directly with the utility provider and appropriate agencies. The structure is not currently habitable and is presently used by the owner for storage. This property is best suited for a buyer who understands desert properties, wants room to work, and is willing to investigate the property’s condition, use, utilities, permits, and future possibilities. Buyer is responsible for verifying all permits, zoning, land use, square footage, condition, utilities, habitability, and any possible future use with the appropriate agencies. Property is being sold strictly as-is, with no implied or expressed warranties of any kind. Seller and broker make no representations regarding permits, utilities, condition, habitability, or future use. Adjacent 5-acre property with newer home is also available for purchase. Owner is a licensed real estate agent.
