The Seven Sisters and The Cabin at Atlas Ranch create a rare 10-acre, three-parcel high-desert compound with true 360° views of the Bartlett Mountains on one side and the Joshua Tree National Park ridgeline on the other. Located in the highly sought-after Windy Gap area, where opportunities to purchase are limited, this property offers a compelling combination of lot size, location, privacy, and proximity. Just approx. 5 minutes to downtown and about 12 minutes to the park entrance, this retreat delivers both seclusion and convenience. Included in the sale are three separate lots totaling approx. 10 acres: The Seven Sisters on an approx. 5-acre parcel (remodeled 1BD/1BA open-concept, loft-style home), The Cabin at Atlas Ranch on an approx. 2.5-acre parcel (newly renovated 1954 1BD/1BA with vintage charm), plus an additional approx. 2.5-acre vacant parcel for future potential (buyer to verify zoning, utilities, and buildability). The two residences sit roughly 300 feet apart, offering separation, privacy, and expansive desert views.
Both homes have been completely remodeled with beautiful tile and high-end finishes, and feature seamless indoor-outdoor flow, mini-split heating and cooling, washer/dryer in both homes, and an on-site EV charging station. Enjoy multiple patios and lounge areas, a firepit, and outdoor soaking tubs for unforgettable desert nights. The Seven Sisters also offers a chef-friendly kitchen with a propane range, a cozy fireplace, and a large indoor soaking tub positioned for mountain and star views.
Currently operated as part-time short-term rentals, this desert compound presents a unique opportunity for short-term rental potential, a multi-parcel investment, or a private high-desert retreat. Competitively priced for the acreage, location, and multi-parcel offering, this is a rare chance to own in one of Joshua Tree’s most desirable areas.
